    Stalker Paintball's Dianne Olsen passed away last weekend

    In all the stuff going on, I guess nobody posted this here. And seeing as this forums still has a pretty sizable presence of Wisconsin / Illinois members, I wanted to share some painful news.

    Anyone who's been in the Midwest knows about or has played at Stalker Paintball Games in Wisconsin. It's one of the oldest fields in Wisconsin. Dianne and Mike ran it since the 80's, and it's become a fixture of paintball in Wisconsin.

    Last Friday, the 23rd, Dianne suffered what is thought to be insulin shock, and did not recover. Mike made the announcement on the Stalker forums. To say the least, everyone felt the loss.

    The funeral was on Tuesday of last week. Her obituary can be found here. Her presence will be missed by everyone in the region.

    If you wish to contact Mike, the store # is 608-666-2400. The only e-mail contact I have is [email protected]
