Adios to an oilfield icon. The patch just won't quite be the same.

Texas native and American Icon, We've lost one of our finest.

Godspeed Red.

As a former firefighter I think I can get away with saying this, Red.

Rest well...you fought hell, well.

Farewell, Red. I hope somewhere in Texas there's someone growing up to be just like you.

The 5-foot-7 Houston native proudly spent his 76th birthday clad in his traditional red overalls, swinging valves in place as his crews capped 117 Kuwaiti wells left burning by retreating Iraqi troops.

What an amazing man!

A sad day for Houston and the entire oilfield community. Red will truly be missed. My condolences go out to his family and friends.

I'm putting "Hellfighters" at the top of my list on Netflix right now. My kids could stand to see a movie about a real hero.

A man, who was in every way was a hero, dies...and the press can find little time to honor the man...all the whlie fellatiating the DNC and G.I Gigolo and his fraudulence INCESSANTLY!

Makes my blood boil!

R.I.P Red, I'm sure heaven has some hellfires for you to advise on...

No girlie man, that's for sure. If God needs someone to put out the fires of hell, Red's his man.

Mr. Adair, where you are today is one heck of a lot cooler than where you were. I salute you.

(Trying to find that old copy of "Hellfighters" to screen later today).
