I want to pass on my condolences to OneCritter's family. We will truly miss Phil, and will keep his family in our prayers at this very sad time. I just thought some of you players would want to know about his passing. Pearle

From onecritter's family

Hello everyone and thx so much for the kind words about onecritter (Phillip Babcock, Alexandria,VA). Phil was my brother-in-law for over 50 years. In 1982 I taught him the rules of crib and he went away and learned how to PLAY cribbage. He never could teach me that...lol. He was founder of the Springfield VA American Cribbage Congress (cribbage.org) grassroots club and a former member of the ACC board of directors. At this time he is number 13 on the ACC grassroots club lifetime points list. I will miss seeing him on the GC site and sitting across from me dealing on those holidays we managed to get in a few games. Again thank you for your thoughts and prayers, and good pegging.
