In Memoriam RIP Talkinaway ( Peter Conley 1977 - 2021 )

[Fenway]

I am heartbroken to make this announcement.

Talkinaway suffered a heart attack and passed in July and his obituary was published this weekend.

PETER JAMES CONLEY Obituary (1977 - 2021) Boston Globe

He was one of our most active posters and we were thrilled when he accepted our invitation to become a Mod.

I sensed something was wrong as he last logged in on the day he died and he was missing from an online trivia game at roughly the same time he stopped posting here.

He was only 44.

RIP Peter

I am absolutely devastated. Gone way too soon.

 

[HustleB]

Wow, so young. That is a tragedy.

 

[CDJ]

Way too young. RIP Peter, I’m going to miss seeing your name around

 

[KOZ37]

Far to young. I am learning as the years go by to not take life for granted. I tell those close to me I love them every chance I get. I was not blessed enough to know Peter, but my thoughts and prayers go out to his loved ones. Rest in peace

 

[Estlin]

Shocking and sad news. RIP and my condolences to his family.

 

[McGarnagle]

Jeez, that's way too young

Oh man that's just devastating.

Go bhfanfaidh sé i suaimhneas.

RIP, Peter. Condolences to his family and friends.

I had noticed that there were not any posts from him lately. Only 44 years old, so awful.

My sister has been after me to get my affairs in order (will, health care proxy, etc.) and I keep saying I'll do it but I still haven't. Alberta O'Reilly Fan and now this, both so young. Goes to show that any day can be your last one so I think I'll finally force myself to do what needs to be done.

I remembered he responded to something I posted not too long ago. Just looked it up from his profile and that was his last post ever apparently.

 

[sarge88]

So sad.

Rest in Peace.

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I feel confident that I can speak for all habs fans and say that way too damn young.

Rest in peace.

I am absolutely crushed and heartbroken.
When @Fenway reached out to me I spent some time doing a search for Peter.
It is one of those things I’ve done too often now. As always I hope and pray to find nothing.
But it wasnt to be.

Peter was a great guy. A true gentleman amongst gentlemen.

In this day and era a rarity.

I had the utmost respect for him and opinion on all things.

This hit hard.

He hated the Leafs almost as much as he loved the Bruins. He will be greatly missed.

 

[Lobster57]

oh man, this is tough to hear. Condolences to his friends and family.

 

[JRull86]

RIP Peter.

I used to do this at the bank when I wouldn't see customers for a bit, and it rarely turned out positive, and it's absolutely f***ing crushing.
