Very sad, Bobby Ackles, rebuilt the BC Lions, into a succesful franchise again, he helped build the Dallas Cowboys as they would go on to win 3 Super Bowls in the 90's a true icon in the CFL who did more for football in Canada and loved the CFL. he will be sadly missed.

I'm not a big football fan, but sounds like he was a special man.
RIP

Can someone correct the spelling of his name on the thread title?
Bobby, not Babby.

I was sitting in a pub,looked up at the screen(no audio)& saw his photo
with dates beside it.We all know what that means, felt like I'd just got kicked right in the nuts.

His contributions to the CFL, the Lions, the community are huge.He'll never be replaced, never be forgotten.

My deepest condolences to the family.

But after seeing 3 years of hell my grandfather went thru with cancer, I will say quick is better. That's the way I want to go.

He was definitely a class act; he'll be missed. Best wishes to the family even though they may not tune in here.

I haven't decided if quick is better. I would still like a chance to say my goodbyes. But maybe quick is more painless, at least it would be for me I guess...... However a lingering death hasd got to be the worse.

My Dad died of massive heart attack, over in couple minutes. My Mom died of cancer,sick for six months watched it all. She even choregraphed her own funeral. In hindsight the heart attack is the way for me. Bingo its over. Heart attacks are leading cause of non accident deaths. Maybe for a good reason nature has it this way, little suffering
