I'm sad beyond words. George was one of the good guys.
OMG!!!..I didn't even know George, but he lived in town near me somewhere ..I tried to get to know him through PM's, but maybe he was protecting my feelings knowing his end was near (damn, I should of tried harder)...God Bless you George and Happy Trails..

We knew it was coming, but when it arrived it was worse than I thought it would be. George recommended me to Tom to be a Moderator, he was my mentor and although I never met him face to face I knew him and his character well. He was a Good man with a wonderful family and many Grand Children. He loved them more than anything in the world. We had numerous private conversations and sharing with him made me really want to go to out to Texas and pay him a visit on the lake, take a ride on his pontoon boat (the Lilli Pad) and catch a few fish. I even had some ideas on how he could get rid of those pesky raccoons. He was my friend and when you're a friend of mine you're one forever. I can only hope he didn't suffer and his family is well. I miss him already, good bye George.
Here's to Spaf and his Great "Kingdom." I will always remember Inflate, Krude, Rats & Earnie; "The 4 Horsemen."

I enjoyed his view of our crazy markets. He was a very good man; a very helpful contributor. He will be missed. May the good Lord continue to hold his family high and bring them peace.
You will be missed. Rest IN Peace, my friend.
Where is the Money?
Rest in Peace Spaf,
Very nice touch Tom, It was a great idea Rod.

The George I knew was like a father figure, he had a style about him that could make you chuckle. That good old salty dog aura like you knew he had been around the horn a couple of times and never really pushed his opinion on you. A true Patriot that loved his Country, family, and friends.
George had a gentle side too. How many people catch and release opossums and raccoons? He would shoot a spot of fluorescent paint on their butts so that he could tell if they made it back around the lake. LOL

Sad news indeed. I have always loved flying and really enjoyed Spaf's avatar. I went to Spaf's account and read his first post. He will truly be missed. May we keep his family in our prayers.
May the force be with us.

Just in case, I believe this is Spaf's first post from Aug 2004...

Rest in peace Spaf!
In loving memory of the best moderator TSPTalk has ever had,to include myself, I reveal my identity for all to see. Although I may get banned again, I do it in Spaf's honor. He knew who I was and trusted me to keep my nose clean and unconfrontational.
God bless him and his family.
Tom, that was a very lovely thing you and the other moderators did.
