Maybe I've misunderstood the purpose of the thread but I thought this bit was asking for people to post their tributes -steve wrote:Suggestions for what to add to the page, specifically links to other pages or memorials.I definitely don't want it added to that page, I think it's absolutely perfect as it is and agree that it should be kept as clutter free as possible. However, it seems innocent enough in this thread, if it's to be used as a memorial.I'm legitimately sorry if I offended anybody by misinterpreting the initial post.

This was a wonderful and moving read. Thanks for posting it.We miss you John.

These were also good reads -DJ wrote a great tribute on his blog.Everett True paid tribute to John on the Collapse Board.

What an amazing read

Hey, we've put up a John Grabski Memorial page, with permission from his family. It's here, but I'd like to add to it. Suggestions for what to add to the page, specifically links to other pages or memorials. I don't want it to be a clutter, but if there are other things to add, post them here.

That was a beautiful tribute, Steve.

Let's drop it.There's something good about seeing someone go down with his eyes open. I know exactly what Steve means when he says John helped show him how to do it. I feel the same way about a couple of other people I knew. They were scared sometimes, and it hurt, but they didn't let it eat them up. They just rode the shit out as part of life.
