Topic: ~ In Memoriam ~ (Page 1 of 1)

Hello my fellow Asylumites.
I have some deeply sad news. Long time Asylumite JKMabry passed away after a 3 year battle with cancer.
I kept in touch with Jason on various social media platforms and email too I knew he wasn't well but it was only when his wife Karen replied to my unanswered messages on Facebook in February this year that I learned of his passing. Since then I have debated with myself whether to share this sad news here with you or not. I asked his wife Karen what she thought and she said yes it would be ok to post here.

Jason was such a lovely man and friend, even though we only "met" online I felt, we felt, a close connection and discussed how the strength of a friendship is not diminished by distance and how amazing it was that you could miss a person whom you've never physically met. Jason helped me set up my first website patiently walking me through the process step by faltering step.
He was, I think, one of the founder members here always ready to help and give support. He was kind and full of humour and I think not a little mischief.
Go well brotherman.

I am so sorry to hear this!
I did not know Jason but I do remember JKMabry from the early days when I joined the Asylum and I remember we had some good chats over the years.

Gone but not forgotten....

Thank you Nimraw.
I've become so conditioned by "social media" that I found myself looking for a "Like" button to your comment. I think a "Thank you" comment is preferable anyway.

Sic transit gloria mundi.

My condolences to his family.

I find that I know way to few of y'all outside of the Asylum,
but I am richer for everyone I've interacted with here.

Thank you for bearing the message, Tao.

And fuck cancer.

Beautiful thoughts, thank you TP and yes, fuck cancer!

I was perusing Jason's website when I found This which I thought you'd like to see Tyberius.

that does bring up fond memories, thank you Tao.

Fond of you all, thank you for the update Tao. ??

Thank you twItch^

Sorry to hear this, JK had a lot of wisdom and I learned some things from him in this forum long ago that are still with me today.

.Quotes.

Thank you Gilbert.

There's so much nostalgia in this place.

I have absolutely no idea where that falls on the scale of "good vs. bad", but Jason was a good one. I'm sorry to hear of his passing. Thanks, Tao.

Man, this ruined my day. RIP Jason, you were a real one.
