A Humble Tribute to John

Postby Fly2e » Thu Aug 28, 2003 10:51 am

This entire post got deleted somehow.

I wrote a nice epitath about John and how helpful he was to all of us here at Simviation. I am again loss for words so I will just post the pictures again.

A single man and his Baron


May the road rise to meet You....

May the wind be always at your back....
Image


May the sun shine warm upon your face....
Image


The rains fall soft upon your fields....
Image


And until we meet again....
Image


May God hold You....
Image


In the palm of his hand.

May I ask what happened to John (The Tipster)?  I was away for awhile and must have missed it.  His helpand knowledge for some of my problems was tremendous.  I dont think I am gonna like the answer to this question.

Splash, John is no longer with us. He has passed away. Please visit the Cafe or 2k2 forum for the relevant posts re-John.

Thanks Ozzy, I am still sitting here in shock after reading the forums and sites about John's passing.  He was so helpful, patient and knowledgeable about Flight Sim and he helped me tremendously when I first started on here and up to June 5, when I consulted him on the specs of a super computer for flight sim.  Life is so fragile and circumstances can change so quickly, resulting in such a tragic loss.  He will certainly be missed.  The one thing that grabbed my attention was the outpouring of sympathy and comfort, not only for John and his family but for other members in the "Family" of the flig sim community who are going to miss him so very much

Rest in Peace, John (The FS Tipster)
