RIP: David Caruso Jr.

I just read this note on the Dave’s Custom Skulls site: Dave’s Battle with Cancer ended on 2-15-08. Hopefully you were able to know him or maybe were one of the few hundred people around the World to have had the Opportunity to Receive and Enjoy one of his Custom Rings. He will be Missed […]

I just read this note on the Dave’s Custom Skulls site:

Dave’s Battle with Cancer ended on 2-15-08. Hopefully you were able to
know him or maybe were one of the few hundred people around the World
to have had the Opportunity to Receive and Enjoy one of his Custom Rings.
He will be Missed by us all.

My sympathy and condolences to Dave’s family; tragic news from one of my favorite skull ring makes.

I never got around to buying one of Dave’s rings; I regret that now. His work has a rebel yell style to it I love, and I’ve meant for two years to get one of his engraved wings with FTW on it.

Dave’s father may still have some of his work left; I don’t know. I’ll update here later if I hear he does.

UPDATE:

Dave’s father had two rings left. I picked them both up, and I’m keeping one for me and will pass the other to a deserving individual. Give me a yell if you’re interested and we’ll talk.

  1. I had been emailing him por the past month without any response . I just didnt think he had a size 13 in stock or just stopped making them . Sorry to hear of his passing .

  2. I went to the site, the rings are truly beautiful. I’m always sad to hear of someone’s passing. It’s sadder still that such a young and talented artist has gone. I have a passion for skulls. David caught the whimsey and fright in one magnificently.

  3. OOPS! Sorry, in my post I typed Permalink before. I meant to type Karl… I need to pay more attention as I type.
