Some of you may know me mostly through my off the deep-end personality in regards to the direction of the team and Holland's strategy.

I am and always will be a red wings fan. Its been a really tough 10 years for me. I see councilors on occasion and most of them tell me they don't know how I made it. I think complaining about the red wings has been somewhat of an outlet for me so I apologize to the bright and dedicated members of this board for being over the top at times.

2 weeks ago the love of my life fell from a second story fire escape while having a smoke. She didn't make it. I have been surrounded by friends and family with overwhelming support, with time I will be okay. I just wanted to share some of the man behind the personality in rough times. She had a temper that could melt your soul, and a smile that could melt your heart. I will forever miss her. She used to laugh at me when she saw me on my laptop during a game. "*****ing about the wings again?" "Someone's got to babe, someone's got to." Love you guys, bleeding Red...

Sorry to hear that man, better times ahead!

Also, I have used your screen name in reference to LCA outside of this forum. It's great.

I don't know what to say, man. I'm so sorry.

It's important we remember that community is what makes this board tick. Thank you for reminding me of that. And I'll be here to rant about the Wings with you all season.

Oh man. That is so tragic. Terrible. I feel for you.

Sometimes it's easy to forget we're all humans behind the screens. I wish you all the best. Sounds like she was a great woman.

It's very courageous of you to open up and share with us. It's heartbreaking to hear, but I wish you the best of times ahead. Hopefully the Wings and this board can bring you some continued joy.

Wow,I'm really sorry,dude. Wish I had words to help you for even the briefest of moments. I just hope that as each day passes the pain dulls just a little more.

We may not always act like it, but we're a community of armchair GM's who all want the same thing. For this team to win stanley cups. How that's done is always the subject of debate.

I'm very sorry for your loss, I can't imagine. But we're all here for you, mate.

I am very sorry. I know you will NEVER forget. As time passes it gets easier realizing the happiness you had together and that love is eternal. You have to live great for her. I truly believe that in some place, some dimension you two will meet again. Infinite love brother!

Woah, I'm sorry dude. That's tragic and I don't know what to say. You're a valuable member of this community and I'm happy to have you here. I'll be *****ing about the Wings with you.

For what it's worth, it'll get easier. I'm so very sorry. I really do feel for you. I'm so sorry
