I've been apart of this forum for a long time. I have made quite a few friends over the years here. A few I consider my best friends. A couple of which I talk to everyday. One of which was an infamous member named JonnyKnockdown. If you knew him here you know he had an absolutely wild sense of humor. If you knew him off the forum you knew he would give you an opinion as honest and filterless as his comments here. He has been the best friend I could ever ask for. He has been there for me through all of my highs and lows for over 10 years. Today he lost his battle with an illness he has been fighting since last November. He fought ....... hard. He did everything he could to beat this. I will take this strength with me for the rest of my life. He was a great father and an amazing friend. Say hi to Nicky for me my brother. I love you man.
 
.... so sorry to read this Dubs, seriously damn sorry.

Make sure that you look out for yourself and if you need to talk, then talk. Do not let the feelings build up as they consume and can bring in the dark spaces.

To the family and other friends of JKD, seriously all have my condolences and Dubs, please feel free to pass those condolences and the thoughts to those that may know me via this place as well.

Never got to meet JKD, but recall many a good piss take piece of fun or a dig, which was never harmful and always as you say, driven by a wicked sense of humour.

RIP JKD, and keep giving the .... to those that deserve it, and need it for sanity purposes.

And Dubs, just to repeat myself (sorry) but please make sure you look out for yourself and know thoughts are there.
 
Sorry for your loss, Dub!

I remember JKD (didn't he have have Cartman cop as an avatar for a long time?), and I definitely miss the old days of bickering, theorizing, pontificating, and knocking each other around for no particular reason. JKD was an integral part of those times. He will be missed.
 
Thank you everyone! I appreciate all the kind words about him. He was such a great friend. He was living life to the fullest. He had multiple bikes and was doing track days regularly. He learned to play the guitar over the past few years. He was living life and can move on with no regrets. He raised an amazing independent daughter who is a chip off the old block. This hurts but I am glad so many here remember him the way he wanted to be remembered. He talked all the time about coming back with a new alter ego. He loved making us laugh.
