As for the card, would it be possible to just type in a name? I don't have Paint.

My favourite Faded Glory moment was when someone posted an IQ test thread...and everyone was responding with numbers in the 130s or 140s, and along comes FG with a post of something like

Quote:
96?!?!


What a guy...

I can't find an obit for Patrick (FG's real name if his profile is correct) in the local papers.

I couldn't find one for Steve, either. I checked the three major papers fo the area, Kenosha, Milwaukee, and Racine. It's possible the family didn't tell the papers or he lived in a suburb and his obit is in a smaller paper.

Me either, I been searching for it and nothing in Racine..I really wanted to share a card and a short note to his family, so that they know we are both praying for them and missing him, that he did touch plenty people.

I am gonna keep looking..

Peace

My condolences to Steve's family, assuming that he isn't just having a good laugh at our expense, which would (have been) just like him.

28!

What time we have we do not know, neither would have faded. What time he had I hope he loved, enjoying most his moments. I didn't know him very well, I'll leave the accolades. For those who shared his life with him, along the road he tread.

Too soon, so unnecessary. We'll miss him.

Man I'm sorry to hear this. I didn't know FG that well, but any death in an automobile accident is just pointless and cruel.

R.I.P. faded

This on top of finding out one of my closest friend's mother was almost claimed by a blood clot in her lung. (I plan on visiting her later in the day Saturday.)

It's the gift that keeps on sucking...

EDIT: Now that I see ^^that^^ posted, it sounds...odd. It's simply a play-on-words, nothing more.

****, I don't believe it. He was such a fun guy to talk to, and mess around with. This is ****ing tragic, since he was killed by another person's stupidity at such a young age...

He was a very big part of our community for a very long time.

This is ****ed.
