    I am just absolutely stunned...

    It is amazing what a sense of loss I feel for someone I never actually met and only chatted with online. I can only imagine how TJ's family and friends must be feeling. My thoughts and sympathies are with them in this difficult time.

    PC will not be the same without you TJ...

    What???!! I haven't been to this sight in a long time. This is horrible. Wow, this is the first time I have known someone only online that has passed away. I felt like I knew him, it is stunning and sad. He will be missed. RIP TJ, I will miss the banter, the games, the jokes and your spirit.

    I had the pleasure to share several PM conversations with TJ and I will continue to treasure those interactions. I'm happy for him that his pain is behind him, but PC, his family and friends, and the world suffers a great loss with his passing.

    RIP, TJ.

    RIP TJ and Jack!

    just not sounding right.

    RIP TJ & Jack. You'll have my buddy Rufaro the Doglet to keep you amused, as he, too, died on Wednesday.

    All of you are greatly missed.

    I just saw this post now... I'm so sorry to hear of this news. Condolences to TJ's family and friends. I'll miss his wisdom on the forum.

    Condolences to his family. I am also one who generally just reads the posts put out by others. And yes, I also will miss his posts. Although I am relieved he is no longer in pain.

    Just logged on tonight and I was drawn to this thread immediately. It is very sad to realize that TJ is no longer on PC. It is also sad that his last post here was about all the money he owed for his medical bills. It must have been very worrying for him. Hope one day there can be a better medical system, where ill people can concentrate on getting better, rather than the huge debts they are accumulating.
    RIP TJ

    Oh man... I've not visited FHOP for 6 months and the first thing I did was check up on F8L and TJ. I didn't have any interactions with Jack. How sad... I was really looking forward to hearing more about TJs mustang and just his comments in general. He was such a great personality. He was willing to share his opinions yet always respectful of other viewpoints. I liked how he shared his passions with us and openly discussed his problems and joys. I hope someone is able to pass our condolences and memories on to his family. TJ, you've left a hole in PC that will never be filled.

    No words can adequately express the loss of TJ. My condolences and symphaty to TJ's family and to all those he left behind. Rest in peace. We will all miss you.

    I may have met him over a year ago at the 1171 & Garden Ridge Tom Thumb in Lewisville/Flower Mound...and did not realize it might have been him. :(

    My condolences.
