R.I.P. thread
« on: September 16, 2005, 05:33:48 PM »
Was reported on PRE today that Bomberjohn passed away in a car accident 7 weeks ago.
Not sure if many here would remember him - maybe Julz and MT - but most of us adopted him as a fellow feral.
Thought it might have been a cruel joke, but found some newspaper clips which confirmed - won't post here.

Will never forget you mate  :'(

Sad to hear Moi. A unique bomber supporter and muso who spent as much if not more time on the old tigerfury site in 2001 with us tiger ferals and his Tiger supporting buddy nitro as he did on bomberblitz, then just disappeared when the rival sites were closed down.

Very sad to hear that Rove McManus' wife, actress Belinda Emmett lost her battle with cancer earlier today.  She was only 32.

Rove has been a great support through the whole battle.

Kim "foot in mouth" Beazley has done it again confusing Rove's name with a US political advisor while offering his condolences.

Sad to hear that Billy Thorpe died early this morning from a massive heart attack.  He was a great icon for Australian music.
