Beest is gone.
 

pronounced for 11:59 last night. I gave up and went to bed around ten, woke at 11 and he was gone. They've taken him away. The kids know, I'll call his mom in the morning. it's 2am right now

Im so sorry Monster :(

Heart-breaking. You're in my thoughts.

Dammit.

Surreal. You'll want to turn to your partner to share the experience with him, but of course he's the one who is gone. :sniff:

So So Sorry

yup tried that already.

There are no words that can possibly describe how you must feel, and no words of comfort that could possibly be adequate. Love and light to you and yours in this most difficult of times.

:sniff: I'm so sorry.

So sorry.

So sorry, monster.

Another hundred words erased and unsaid.

So wrong. Very grief.

:::hug:::
 

I wish peace and comfort for you during this time.

OMG I loved him so much. He was infuriating sometimes and so was I but we were a team

I got nothing.

I wish there were something I could do or say to make it not so.:(

Hi monster

I'm very sad, I wish I could help you. I'm so sorry.

:cry:

I wish I could have saved him

I bet you do. I know that's true.

i am crying at work

Oh, Monster - I am so sorry. I can't even begin to comprehend the depth of your loss.

I'm so sorry to hear the news. I only offer hugs and sympathetic tears.

Sounds like the best kind of marriage. x

Sorry monster ... will miss the team; but, glad we still have you.

I'm crying for you right now, monster. I did not want to hear this news, even though we knew it was coming. May he finally find ease and peace in death, and may your family find strength through all he brought to you in life.

{{{mon}}}

thanks guys, I got sleep, I have cried less today. I thought I saw him in the restaurant though, coming back to our table. Dude didn't even look anything like him. And I realized just how much we used to talk, how many thoughts we shared. He didn't come here all that often, but now I realize it was maybe because I'd told him everything before he got a chance :lol:

I used facebook to let people know, and the outpouring of stories and memories has been amazing and so very helpful and comforting. So many people have taken the time to message me that they saw how we looked at each other and we were such a team. I had no idea people knew -I though we must come across... well... completely differently, because I was always such a bitch and he was always so gentle, but that's just how we rubbed along.

Oh no, I could tell when you guys were in Austin how in-sync you were. There are couples who are two people being with each other, and then there are couples.

aw, thanks. I just didn't know. My people skills are for shit, tho :/

Monster I am so sorry....... I just still cant believe it happend http://i59.tinypic.com/72tuzr.gif

My condolences

fwiw :)

GATHERING TO REMEMBER BEEST

Date and Time: Friday 6th April 6:30pm
Venue: Knight's Kitchen 5060 Jackson Road Suite D, Ann Arbor MI 48103
Dress: Anything you please -paintball jersey, suit and tie, Jedi robe, jeans & t-shirt... all welcome.
.
"Formalities" will start at 7pm and be brief, followed by light refreshments and a chance to raise a glass (or two ;) ) to our friend and hero, and socialize and reminisce with others who knew and loved him. Feel free to arrive and leave at any time, although it would be preferable if there was a lull during the "formalities"

There will be memory books for you to share moments you treasure, and hopefully a slide show -so please send us any good pictures you have in advance if you can. And please feel free to share this information with anyone who knew him.

Hope to see you there, but please know that Jason felt that no-one should come to a memorial out of a sense of duty. Come if it will help you and don't if it won't. We get it. :)

Monster, Hebe, Hector & Thor

I think I can guarantee to have a drink in my hand at that time. Mr Limey and I will raise a glass to you and yours!

But I'm not saying I won't.



I'm not saying I'm starting early

With you all in 'spirit'.

I will hoist a cold one for you and yours.

:beer:

I will definitely raise a glass to Beest. And to the whole fam dambly. :)

Monster - My thoughts are with you and your family during this most awful time. I cannot fathom the grief nor loss you all must be facing. I have little to offer you in terms of comfort. I'm just so sorry for all of you ... and sad ... ugghh..

Here’s to Beest and the love that you shared as a family! XXXhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...14c37d3259.jpg

I don't currently have a functioning camera on my phone, but I and my friend from work raised a glass of Stodfold Gold, at the Stodfold Inn, for Beest.

Nobody expected the Spanish Inquisition....


...oh yes I did....

It was ginger Crown(s) at the bar.

I never thought about a pic.

I really did....

but can you guys see this? ...edited, I think this version might work

Well, that was unexpected.

Class in a glass.

Lovely!

I didn't even tell the kids :D (There were two or three more inane questions before the video kicks in)

Perfect.

Outstanding.

My lovely Cow Orker said today "That's the kind of funeral everyone says they want but no-one gets.... they say they want people to have fun, not be miserable". I was very touched, because I hope that means that people want to have fun when they attend a memorial and the whole point was to do something to help those left behind come to terms with this pile of shit. poop just made myself cry, I miss my buddy so badly.

:sniff:

Who were the performers?

That was outstanding, monster. Well done. :thumb:

Couple guys from Ring of Steel -the Action Theater and Stunt Troupe, beest used to take Thunderboy to on a Sunday morning. A fairly recent activity. Stage fighting with medieval weapons and light sabers ...that sort of thing. My friend made the costumes. In two days. I did the accessories!

That's the friend who videoed. Only she, the celebrant and the caterer friend who let them in the back door knew. :)
