We have lost one of our own. RIP antti@561detailing
I just heard the devastating news that a long time forum member and contributor antti@561detailing passed away unexpectedly the other day.
Anyone who knew him knew he was a gentle soul whom was passionate about detailing and helping others. He and I messaged each other on Facebook every so often and he was a driving force behind reassuring me about my business venture.
Antti you'll be greatly missed. Rest easy bud!

I heard of his passing too...
I was told he was in his 40s, that's very young to have to leave this Earth.
Antti was a regular at all Autogeek's functions, he was a straight-up guy, honest, friendly, helpful and kind.
I'm saddened to hear of his passing. While events like this a are solemn, it's a reminder to those of us still here to take inventory of our physical, mental and yes, spiritual health and be pro-active while you can.
Here's a picture of Antti at one of our weeknight projects here at Autogeek....
From left to right,

He also had a great sense of humor, check out post #6 and then #7 of the thread the above picture was taken from...
2014 Post SEMA New Product Review at Autogeek
If you're reading this and Antti detailed anything you owned, you were fortunate, he was a true pro and talented craftsmen at the art of detailing.

Just a little Googling with his name and autogeekonline
I'll add a few more cool projects when I'm behind a real keyboard next week.
He was a great guy and I know you and he were good friends. He'll be sorely missed.

I think he had roots in Poland. He bought me a few craft beers over the years and brought them to our detailing projects and if I remember correctly they were always Polish Beers.

... Terribly sad news.
I never met him personally but obviously being a member of this forum, you kind of feel as though a lot of folks are great friends.
Thanks for creating this post Justin, although I’m all sure we would rather it be bearing good news ...
Mike, what a wonderful post my friend.
Sure as heck makes me cherish the time I will spend with a few Autogeek Online Members while I am over here, you have to grab these moments when you can huh.
Rest In Peace Antti@561detailing.
