RIP Jacoby, forever a Raven

His house is in the same city I live in Houston. Would not b surprised if this turns out ti be heat stroke or Carbon monoxide poisoning from a generator. Most of the city has been without power since Monday with 105 heat index.

Although I hate to see folks die, the title of this thread is "Gone Too Soon" and not sure if that applies to folks that die in their late 80's and 90;s. I guess that, to their loved ones, any time is too soon so there is that aspect.

Truly funny man.

Yea maybe “in memoriam” is better phrasing there

JD loves this poem


“
Like a comet
Blazing ‘cross the evening sky
Gone too soon

Like a rainbow
Fading in the twinkling of an eye
Gone too soon

Shiny and sparkly
And splendidly bright
Here one day
Gone one night

Like the loss of sunlight
On a cloudy afternoon
Gone too soon

Like a castle
Built upon a sandy beach
Gone too soon

Like a perfect flower
That is just beyond your reach
Gone too soon

Born to amuse, to inspire, to delight
Here one day
Gone one night

Like a sunset
Dying with the rising of the moon
Gone too soon

Gone too soon”
