remembering Tony Florida (long)

I lurked here occasionally before starting my journey,
and didn't get a chance to see many of Tony's posts. I
wish I had.

I'm also thankful for the explanation of "LGB" - the only
thing I could think of when I saw that was the LGB student
group at my old university

figure out exactly what that had to do with WW.

Dear all,

It is exactly one year ago that we lost one of the
greatest members of this newsgroup ever. For all of you
who didn't know him : Tony Florida was a piano player with
lots of humour and, even more important, a lot of
compassion for other people.He died of pulmonary embolism
one year ago and left this newsgroup in a state of shock.
He was a great writer who liked to kick ass and who was
one of the most supportive people I knew. He didn't
hesitate to send you a private mail when he felt you were
not well... I 'm truly honoured to have known him and to
have exchanged a few personal e-mails with him. He is
still there in my heart and I wish to dedicate my
weightloss to him. Wherever he is now, he is definitely
not forgotten. If you want to know how he was like, do a
google search on google newsgroups and enjoy his posts! In
his honour I would like to point you to the following post
which I kept, because it gives me the wisdom to continue
when I 'm ready to give up
makeashorterlink.commakeashorterlink.comOpen ↗ . It will also tell
you all about the LGB ( little green [censored]) :-))

Thankyou for the reminder Nathalie. I can't believe it's
been a year. He really was a great guy, and is missed.

I was thinking of Tony only yesterday, and today I bought
the ingredients to make Tony's wonderful pot roast -
subconciously I must have known. As you say, he was a
wonderfully supportive person and he is greatly missed.

Thanks for posting this Nathalie, I can't believe it has
been a year already. Tony has been on my mind alot lately,
so maybe the subconcious knew what I didn't? And I did make
his *famous* pepsi pot roast for dinner, just before you
posted this. <grin>

From what little I did know of him, told me he was a
wonderful person who is missed by many.

joyce
