Completely agree. I actually thought he was older than he was by some of his references. Too young for sure!I don’t know about you guys, but I’ve been reading his posts since I joined up around 2000. Even though I never met him, that’s 20 years of conversing with someone and that really does have an effect on you.
@Noobz347 do we have any sort of “In memoriam” CT or member title to bestow? I feel like his posts will always be references and there should be some way to bestow respect upon his account here.
Not to go off-topic, because this thread should be 100% JRs, but I do know of two other significant passings on some of the other forums I am a member of. I guess the reality of being a part of a forum community for the better part of 20+ years.
Same here. My dad was an engineer at Picker xray and very analytical. Would study a wire diagram like it was the bible. He was very step 1...2..3.. like JR was where most of us just scan around and start in the middle.Completely agree. I actually thought he was older than he was by some of his references. Too young for sure!
I lost my dad in ‘17 which was the year I joined here. JR immediately reminded me of my dad, who also had a great electrical mind, and was former Air Force. I even sent him a thank you PM telling him that at one point when I was working through some things.
Again, although never met him, he definitely had a lasting effect and will be remembered for sure!
Are we brothers? lol. Same here.He was born one year after my Dad. My Dad passed in 2000.
He was/is my hero, his attitude, service to God, our country and to the mustang community here at stangnet should be a model for everyone.
there is a empty spot in our community and in our hearts now.
Thats a commendable thing to do.... I know that when I have lost someone close, its so nice to hear about how they had touched others lives.....I took it down. There's enough personal info in the initial post for our purposes.
