Lost Another Good One
Posted: Thu Jan 28, 2016 3:37 pm
A couple nights ago a long time friend, client, and sometime poster on the Deck passed away from a long battle with a rare form of cancer. He was in his early 50s and recently married.
Jim was most remembered for fishing and hunting reports, as that is really all he care about, outside of his wife, family and her family back in Finland. He moved here about 6 years ago buying a double and quickly getting int Lakewood life. Growing up in Berea with the family boat at Cleveland Yacht Club, Jimmy knew what he was moving into city wise, he just never realized how fast he would fall in love with the city of Lakewood, and the people of Lakewood.
He was a rare person, no matter who you were, he would be willing to help you. No matter what the chore, he would say yes, before you even told him.
He might be, the nicest man I ever met.
Right after being told, you are going home to die, he posted this...
He made it three more weeks, back in his home in Lakewood, then slipped away.
My friend you were loved by many, missed by us all.
Goodbye.
FUCK YOU CANCER!
