A lot of you have already made comments in the smoove1 R.I.P. thread, but we felt Brother Blues deserved his own thread.

Rest in Peace to a long time member and a person that I didn't really know, but he always seemed like an old friend.

HNIC :sad:

This is fucked up. It's seems people don't live into their 90s anymore. They go much earlier. He lived in my state. He worked for the Boston Fire Dept. I use to think people on this board were in their 20s and 30s but they're older than that. People don't die of natural death anymore. He was more of a cool member to me.

HNIC, can we please have a "gone but not forgotten" section of the board.
Too many of us are passing and I want their legacies to have a special section on this board. There are too many memories and posts that should be eternally archived.

Please do this. I will happily pay you for this service.

How many members have passed away to knowledge of BGOL? This board been here since 1996. I been a lurker and found the board in 2001 but became a member in 2007. There were like five to my knowledge.

He lived in my Boston hood. Brother was a fellow Boston resident. I hope he's in a better place now.

But it's fucked up it got Brother Blues. Dude was cooler than most. I thought he was like 49 Years old. Why couldn't death come after the scum of BGOL? I only wish death on dirt bags.

I remember Brother Blues for a lot of the reasons others mentioned. But I also remember that he loved the blues and old school R&B music. I remember being surprised a few years ago to find that him and a few others were in their 60s and beyond. A community is not truly a community without elders. They provide not only wisdom but also a balance that can go unnoticed. The importance of an elder to a community is felt most in their absence...

Offline, from time to time we check on elders. Make sure they're ok - especially if they live alone. Yesterday, it occurred to me that I hadn't seen Bro. Blues around. Then I saw it had been 5 months since he last posted. Someone we'd see everyday - old school player vibe, mashing it up with us, debating sports, checking out the young tender female flesh... :lol:

Salute to you, Mr. Herman Donaldson aka Brother Blues. You were one of a kind and a valuable asset to our online community. You will be missed, family.
