MAR1979 Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Condolences to the family. I know all too well how sudden loss is.... I'd like propose that all who desire use this as their avatar for the month of May. If there are no disagreements I'll change mine tomorrow Point Five, Krismusic, toro and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tec-Tac-Toe Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Too many board members have passed over the years that I have been one and all, to my recollection, have been too young. RIP Mr. Drew. JollyComics, Off Panel and jimjum12 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post WernerVonDoom Posted May 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2023 Oh man this is so sad. Easily the nicest person I've interacted with on the boards. We chatted a bit about our similar health issues and he seemed to be far off from anything serious. My condolences to his family. jimjum12, silverseeker, Off Panel and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Larryw7 Posted May 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2023 This hurts. Thomas was one of the nicest guys on the forum. I will really miss seeing his avatar and all of the great books he would post in the New to your collection thread. May God grant him eternal life, and comfort his family and loved ones.

Popular Post BuscemasAvengers Posted May 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2023 Further to my post in the Water Cooler thread ... Thomas was selling a high grade FF 137 back in 2019 on behalf of a friend who lived on the west coast. He was uncertain whether his friend would ship all the way to the middle of Canada, and then said this in a few PMs we exchanged after we agreed on a price for the book (the red highlighted words are my doing, but certainly reflect his character in our exchanges): "I know you really want the book. Go ahead and claim it. I will make up the difference in shipping if he has an issue." "I will get the difference, as I’m a man of my word, so don’t worry about it." jimjum12, Point Five, grendelbo and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Drummy Posted May 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2023 I posted in the WC as well, but I'll echo here what others are saying -- Thomas was (and remains, in my mind) a terrific human being. Smart, kind, thoughtful, generous, and honest -- the kind of person we should all strive to be.

Popular Post Ken Aldred Posted May 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2023 (edited) Even though you may never have had the opportunity to meet up in person, only knew them from their board post presence, PMs, or maybe comics purchases, losses like this one can still be very affecting. It feeds into and brings back additional memories of similar, previous situations here as well.
