JD50AE ... In memoriam & looking for info.

JD50AE. Hello, I am JDs wife, and I felt I should make a post here as I am not sure where else to search. My husband, JD, passed away unexpectedly on November 2nd, after a brief hospice. It's been a difficult unsettling thing to deal with, and I am just now kind of getting back up on my feet. I just recieved a box of cigars in the mail for him from a fella named Shawn, today. I feel I should return them, after reaching out and saying thank you for thinking of him. He always looked forward to 'Bombs', I believe he called them, and to sending them out as well. Hope this is the right place. Anyway, any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Holly

    Thanks for telling us, Holly. I was thinking about driving over there to make sure he was OK. We'll miss him.

    Thank you. I miss his old grizzly self so much. He said to make sure everyone knew that he "smoked all of his girls, and drank some of his four roses small batch port. (his words)" before he left, and he did. I posted on another forum thinking it was this one, but I just really did not know where to start. Someone there pointed me here. This place meant so much to him, so thank you all for calming & soothing my Big Bear.

    Very sorry hear of JD's passing. I was missing his pet food recall thread...and of course his political rants. Mostly his political rants(especially if it irritated @VegasFrank). Stay strong and know his spirit will always be with you.

    Sorry for your loss.

    We all know JD loved animals and ranting about politics. He will be missed

  • VisionVision Posts: 7,764 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I would also like to add no matter the pushback he received he never wavered from his core beliefs. That in and of itself is truly admirable. I will also miss reading his political rantings and getting under @VegasFrank skin. Again, sorry for your loss.

    Thank you for coming here and letting us know, and letting us into your world; your posts give us a better understanding of JD, not only why he's not here but who he was when he was around. I'm the guy he was buying coffee from for a while and got to know JD better through emails during that time. You seem like a wonderful person, and God will take care of you. The next time you see JD, he'll be whole and happy.

    Sorry for your loss, Holly, and thank you for letting us into his world.

    Sorry for your loss, Holly. I liked JDs fire and conviction. I think I'm now the only "right-wing nut" on the forum. ;). It's great that he had someone loving and caring for him in his last times as no one should be alone when they go. Just know you did the best you could for him and can be proud of that.

    If he had any local cigar smoking friends, pass along my bomb to them to smoke in Jim's honor, and I will smoke one as well tonight.

    So sorry to hear this.
    I liked JD. I liked the banter he brought.
    I liked giving him a hard time about 5 Vegas cigars and then sending some. ;)
    I am very sorry for your loss. He will be missed.

    And thank you for letting us know. I appreciate it and it means a lot to us that he found it enjoyable here, cause there are those of us who like his friendship.

    My sincere condolences,

    Sorry for your loss, Holly. Yes, I went back and forth a few times with him but it was mostly always in good fun. We even bombed each other a couple of times. RIP JD.

    @chaeyahne so sorry for your loss, but thank you for sharing and letting us know.

    So sorry for your loss Holly. I had sent JD a few bombs over the last year or so and we always chatted back and forth in messages. He will be missed. Prayers to you and your family during these times.

    If you want to bomb me send it to Tony @0patience :D

    Very sorry for your loss. I know how difficult it is to deal with some one suffering mentally at the end.

    Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

    Sorry for your loss Holly.
    He was quite a character and will be missed.

    So sorry to hear of this. I know your pain personally. He’ll be missed. He was a guy that stuck to his convictions. Prayers for the family.
