Folks Of Interest Old friend...R.I.P

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by 56don, Dec 12, 2018.

  1. I just found out that a member here from Alabama," loburban", aka Randy Clanton had passed away. He seldom if ever posted much.
    It was some time back but I have been out of touch with my hometown and just found out about it. Mostly everyone in the Gadsden Alabama area for miles around knew him because he got around a lot. Always cutting up and cracking jokes, I will miss him even though we only saw each other at car shows over the last few years.

    God, Don... (doggone? Close...no disrespect, but...) How can we 'explain' it? Can't.

    Really sorry for your loss, had to reply 'cause I lost my best bud in January of last year...
    Didn't know, as I called him and he said, "Goin' to the Doc, some more tests..."
    Symptoms sounded like a stroke...
    Next thing, he was gone.
    Life isn't kind to us 'elders'...

    Sorry for the loss of your buddy Don. The passing of relatives, loved ones and friends is one of the hardest things about getting older. At 67 I have lost many, including my oldest son to cancer. I find as time goes by the memories of the good and fun times takes away a lot of the pain. God speed to your friend.

    Sorry to see that. I remember that he posted once in a while over the years.
    I lost one of my boat and hot rod buds a bit over a year and a half ago and he was on the Hamb but I can not remember his screen name here.

    I thought you knew, Don. I'll take responsibility for not asking you about it. I forgot that you were from there. You meet him once, he knew you from then on.....
