I can't describe how sad this makes me. I'll miss that sparkle in his blue
eyes when he was about to give your leg a good yank and I'll miss his
laughter. I'll miss the banter and his way with words. We all lose when
someone like Easy leaves us.

The big man leaves behind a big hole in a lot of hearts.

If there are redheads, fast baggers, cheeseburgers-n-beer where he is
now, he's smiling. <<

You're description of Merrell is perfect, as much as a nutshell could hold.
A talent of few yet succinct words the two of you shared.

I have a couple of corrections to make. JMark supplied the following
information after contacting Easy's sister.
The memorial will be at 7pm instead of 6pm, & the club is located at
3700 70th Avenue N, Pinellis Park, 33781 instead of Tampa.
& if you read this Mark, please post here or call me with your ISP. I
think it's blocked on my computer, so I need to clear it. I haven't gotten your
email.

I have never met Easy, or any of you in fact, but it sounds like we have
indeed lost one of the good ones. My heart goes out to his family!

To Easy!

That's sad news. I'm sorry that I never met him IRL.
I'll miss his posts.

My sympathy to his family and friends.
