I am too, he's left a big hole on the forum. Have a goodnight and take care 😊 Bernadette and Jack 🐕 xxxxxx 🌻🌻

[CDPO16]

Yes, me too soul. I console myself with the thought that he isn't struggling with his lungs any more.

[Oshgosh]

I miss Skis,his knowledge of things lung was wideHe was always ready to share information and knowledge.I miss his sense of humour.

I feel he should be respected for the way he dealt with his health problems.

Sadly missed

[Gingeros]

Me too. 😢

Hello soul-123, 🙂

I have a feeling he is not too far away and reading all our posts with his usual cheekiness. xx 😉

[Katinka46]

Oh yes. I keep thinking I must tell him about…… Ask him about….And then I realise that I can’t.

Haunted by the fact that he seemed to be alone when he died.

Kxxx

[Greenthorn in reply to Katinka46]

Perhaps not Kate. Perhaps he was thinking of the gang here, thinking of all our names, and riding on a chariot into the sunset. X

[Katinka46 in reply to Greenthorn]

I do think the group meant a lot to him. I hope he was aware of our love for him in those last days.Xx

[watergazer]

Yes soul-123 Skis passing away is a sad loss to us. His humour. Knowledge. Directness when needed. I feel sad he was probably alone when he died - apart from faithful scruffy. X

[Izb1]

Yes Soul, I dearly miss our Skis, he was a real character and like Katinka I keep thinking to message him about this or that. I spent a couple of hours going through the private messages I had from him in tears which I suppose helps with the grieving. He was a good social friend to a few of us on here and gave alot of support. I can imagine him up there looking down on us trying to give us a nudge, with a gin and tonic in hand x

[Alberta56]

i think we're all missing him. I hope Scruffy isn.t pining.

[Lynneypin]

😢😢😢

[Lilylung]

I’m missing Skis also , it’s somehow not the same anymore 🥲

[JJ_7]

I miss skis too. These posts are a great tribute to him. x

[maggiewhiteley]

I haven't been on here for sometime, and I am really shocked to know that our Skis has gone, just seemed he would always be here with his font of knowledge, He will be with our other great friends, Rest in peace Skis.

I always felt sad that he was too far away geographically for me to offer him any practical support. It would have been great to be able to give him a bit of help when he was struggling or just sit with him to have a cuppa - or something stronger!

He was a highly valued member of this group as is evident from all the posts there have been about him since he passed. I, for one, will always remember him for his cheeky wit and also his sincerity.

I, miss him greatly.

xx Moy

I miss a lot of them. I wonder where they’ve all gone. It’s sis how a shame.

[Mavary in reply to Mavary]

That was it’s such a shame.

[CDPO16 in reply to Mavary]

A lot of names have gone from the forum since I joined. Many have died, others have left for various reasons. It is always sad when a member dies but that is bound to happen when the forum is for those with chronic lung disease. I am privileged to have known some of those no longer with us. It is a pleasure to know some of our members who are carers for partners with lung disease to see their perspective too.

[Mavary in reply to CDPO16]

I quite agree. It covers a wide range of lung diseases now and I’m pleased to see it. I’ve been on here now for about eleven or twelve years. Firstly for my Husband who had IPF and now for me with lung disease. I’ve got mild asthma and Pulmonary Fibrosis.

[CDPO16 in reply to Mavary]

You have been a member longer than me Mavery so will have seen more names lost. I'm sorry to learn that your husband had and you have lung disease. That's doubley hard. Best wishes to you x

[Mavary in reply to CDPO16]

Thank you for you.

[Mavary in reply to Mavary]

That was meant to be Thank you for your reply.

[HollyBoyd]

Yes, so very much missed. He was such a loveable, kind person xxx

[dunnellon]

I always looked forward to his commentaries and observations and news of Scruffs. He is rightly missed.

[Nicholatracy]

Me too 🐞

[Cloudancer]

Me to.But what a joy his posts gave to so many,a lovely legacy bless him.

[Lyd12]

I miss Skis a lot. Never said much about his health problems. I wonder whether he had any family that visited him and helped him? Love Iris x

[pepparuby1]

Yes I think we all do, he was actively posting some very good blogs on here, he certainly made an impact on us all
