I was wondering where he was, no wonder he hasn't swung by for some time. That is sad, was such a nice poster too.

I still miss Logan Thompson
I'd post a wall of gifs in his honor, but the forums still too broken
He was probably the most sincere, unbiased poster to frequent these boards in my time here. His positivity in GDTs was infectious.
My sincerest condolences to his family. May he rest in peace. He'll be missed.

One of the few posters who was active and welcomed in all team boards GDTs. Speaks volumes of his character.

That is very sad to hear. He was always so great on here. Very kind and always made me laugh with all his gifs. Thought and prayers to him and his family.

I always enjoyed interacting with him. He had a cutting but subtle sense of humour.
God bless his soul and condolences to his family and friends.

Wow, this one actually stings even though I never met the guy or really knew anything about him. He was one of the most unbiased, happy go lucky posters on HF and had really funny and timely GIFs to boot, seemed like a nice genuine guy based on his posting style. RIP GP and condolences to his family, he'll be missed.

Really sad to hear…Ginger Papa was a great poster and seemed like a hell of a dude. Like others have said, unbiased, and his joy for the game was truly infectious. RIP and condolences to his family and friends

Loved by all, hated by none. RIP
RIP, when I came back to the boards he was very active and well respected in our forum I was shocked when I found out he was actually a Canucks fan. Goes to show how good of a person he was, will be missed all around HF.

Such a positive energy guy. Funny and respectful. Really had this diversion in life figured out. One always hopes news like this isn't true. But if it is rest in peace Ginger Papa.
RIP Ginger Papa. You made this place worth returning to (many of you do).
There's something familiar and warm about this place. It's why I've been a forum regular for nearly 20 years since we acquired Pronger in 2005.
I was a part of a vibrant 3D Art forum that's now completely inactive. A Guitar forum that's gone under, and this was my hockey forum that's thankfully not morphed into a bot-filled Slack or Discord chat.
I joined this place in my mid-20s, and now that I'm in my mid 40s' and a father of 2 girls, and moved 2 different cities, it's comforting for me to see so many familiar names and handles, who all share so much passion for this team.
I don't know anyone on this site personally, but as I get older and older, I appreciate how Ginger Papa added to such a rich tapestry of passionate voices that make this community.
I don't know if I'm getting sentimental, or nostalgic, but appreciate this place and how so many posters on here make things feel familiar.
You're like my online neighborhood pub
Cheers to GP, you were a good one. Next round is on me.

Enjoyed interacting with him. Was such a good humored poster and was in life as well. Was in the same occupation as myself and he conducted here the best anybody could. A model for all and I bet he was a treasure in life as well. RIP you beautiful Ginger!
