Randomguy Posted January 5, 2022 Share #1 Posted January 5, 2022 I don't know how to explain it, but I do feel a bit that way. I know he would want us to be here and all, just feels weird. The end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razors Edge ★ Posted January 5, 2022 Share #2 Posted January 5, 2022 It certainly would be BETTER with him still here - even when he ignored us - but I don't have guilt. More sadness as I never really knew much about him My loss, but infinitely less than all the folks here and IRL who did know him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Kirby Posted January 5, 2022 Popular Post Share #3 Posted January 5, 2022 Not exactly guilty, but . I found it hard to focus on the posts. and think of something fun to post, especially two days ago. But I think he would like us to find joy and fun here, and to read Heathcliff. And he'd want you to find some reason to use the emoji. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Wilbur ★ Posted January 6, 2022 Popular Post Share #14 Posted January 6, 2022 It just feels empty. It always does when you lose a friend or family. Sort of like this: "I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice. Still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone." 3 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post petitepedal ★ Posted January 6, 2022 Popular Post Share #15 Posted January 6, 2022 It is hard..I was in touch with him several times a day that last week+ encouraging him to see a doctor, rest, eat and take meds..and just checking up on him. As bad as I feel..I think he passed knowing we truly cared. 4 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally would text with him every few weeks or so, but hadn’t been in touch with him since December 8th until you told me about the diagnosis. I sent him some RO pics and had a chance to make him laugh a little bit before he passed because of you. Thank you. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsharr ★ Posted January 6, 2022 Share #20 Posted January 6, 2022 At first I was reluctant to post at all, but then I started thinking about Hank and how bad he would feel if his death drove us away from the forum. He would want us to come closer and be better. I have already received messages from other members that further confirm this belief. Sometimes we, or at least I, think this is a place to come and let loose a bit. Either create a persona that most can see through, or stay a bit more secretive and still have a place to off load emotions, or act a fool, or whatever. So I decided I would keep on posting the way I have in the past, except I will try to stay away from parodies. Have not posted one in quite some time. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
