RIP Ginger Papa

[krutovsdonut]

rip to a great poster. i am fairly certain he was active before and around the tdl on the main trade board dealing out likes on trade threads to canuck fans, so he was perhaps monitoring without posting.

It’s not often you can call someone a ray of sunshine in a genuine way but GP was one of those people.

It’s a sad day for HFboards.

 

[ChilliBilly]

Haven't got time to look, but does anyone know what happened to him. He was a great poster and seemed like a really nice guy. and 15 years younger than me, thats just wrong.

 

[David Bruce Banner]

Another one goes without seeing this team win a Cup. I hope he enjoyed the 3 good runs we had.
RIP

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

My condolences.

It doesn't matter what is happening with this team, you only get one life.

Treasure your time because you never know how much you get.

 

[Blue and Green]

He's been a fun guy to have here. Sad news.

 

[HelloCookie]

RIP Ginger, much has been said here that i concur with. May his spirit live on these boards for the betterment of us all

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Another one goes without seeing this team win a Cup. I hope he enjoyed the 3 good runs we had.
RIP

How many of us are going to drop before that happens I wonder...

I feel bad for my mum. She really deserves to see a Cup. So did Ginger.

 

[Canucker]

RIP Ginger....always hate to lose good people around here.

 

[EpochLink]

Rest in peace my friend.

Losing someone in these boards is like losing a family member or a friend, it hurts.

 

[Gee Wally]

Sad news indeed. He was a real good guy.

Rest in Peace Roy.

Seriously, Ginger Papa jumped to mind last night when I logged in to read about the game (I missed it), hoping to see a few of his wall of meme posts and get a hit of that positive, humerous energy he always brought to the board.

Really sad news, but can say I'm a better person for having "known" him. He's already missed. Peace to you Sir.

Godspeed Ginger Papa. His memory is a blessing to us all. Condolences to his family and irl friends.

 

[Grip it N RYP it]

I didn't interact with him much directly, but I always enjoyed his contributions, and clearly by everyone's responses, he was a quality person, very well liked and appreciated.

Always sad to lose family or friends, and those whom we share a unique bond or connection with.

Condolences to his family and to everyone who knew him here.

 

[MrazeksVengeance]

HE WAS THE ONLY NON-CANES POSTER TO START A GDT IN THE PAST FIVE YEARS.

AN ABSOLUTE LEGEND, EPITOME OF KINDNESS, EMPATHY, ENTHUSIASM AND GOOD WILL.

REST IN PEACE ROY. F26 SALUTES YOU.

RIP GP! One of the nicest guys, if not the nicest guy, on HF.

 

[Phrasing]

RIP, thanks for the great times over the years.

Ironically was thinking about him last night when i went to link a GIF for Boeser's 2nd goal and just posted a picture instead.

Was thinking how the hell did he do so many so quickly and with wit and humour. That i missed him and was wondering about where why he wasn't around anymore.

Sadly got my answer today. Will be missed greatly

 

[Jyrki]

Awful news. Rest in peace and may the Canucks win it all under your heavenly watch

 

[Canuckle1970]

He was such a good example of an HF "community" poster. No ill will to anyone or any team - just positivity and fun.

RIP, Ginger Papa. My condolences to your family and friends.

 

[Bojack Horvatman]

He did the same for me few years back...

Great guy.

Same here. This one hurts. RIP Ginger Papa

damn, one of the guys I enjoyed interacting with the most whenever I saw him on the mains and just an all around knowledgeable and good guy. RIP GP

 

[vancityluongo]

such a nice dude that i was never sure if he was a canucks fan or just frequent poster here. as is evident from some of these other tributes from posters from seemingly every other forum.

may he rest easy
