Farewell to One-Trick Pony
 

Hi everybody,

This is the last thread I ever wanted to start, for it is the worst news I could imagine. One-Trick Pony passed away this weekend unexpectedly. If you knew him, you know that he was a wonderful man of great humor, and joy, and love, and kindness. He was a good kisser, too. (You might not have known that, but you can take my word for it.) I will love him and miss him all the rest of my days, and even on this worst of days, I feel privileged to have had him in my life.

He and I spoke often of the community here. It's where we met, in fact. He told me how much the friends he made here helped him through his divorce, and were just good friends to him, period. So many of you reached out and touched his heart, and no doubt were touched in return. He was a stellar human being.

There is so much more I could say...if I could see the screen through my tears. But I wanted to let you know, and if you had thoughts you wanted to share, maybe it'd make it a little easier for all of us who knew and cared about him. He cared about you, too.

AZRedHot,

Thank you for letting us know, even if the news is sad. I had noticed his absence.

(((AZRedHot)))

One Trick Pony was always very fun to play with in Smut Games...I really enjoyed his sense of humor, his flirtatiousness, and his intelligence. We exchanged emails several times and shared several laughs.

I will miss him...a dear, sweet man.


((((AZ)))))

So sad!!!!! R.I.P One Trick Pony!!!

(((((((AZ))))))))

OMG thats horrible , i will miss him as well , he has always been very sweet to me ! ((((((((((((((AZ))))))))))))) im so sorry

Oh no no no no! this is so sad. I am bawling right now. perhaps when I can see I'll write more.

Edit: I changed my signature and other things in rememberance of him.

Lizz

Oh no.... that is so sad, he helped me through my divorce a lot and was a great friend. I havnt spoken to him for a while but i will still miss him

RIP

Thank you AZRedHot for informing us of the grim realities of one of our own. Of course we are interested in any additional information that may come available.

I knew OTP only as a citizen of Pixies that I would exchange fun posts with on the board. As said, the absence of his regular participation had been noticed.

My true sympathies to you, his family and all the other lives he was part of.

He was indeed a wonderful and dear man. He was my friend and now I will never be able to tell him how much he meant to me...I hope he knew. My heart is breaking, I have lost two men dear to me in just a matter of days and I don't know if I can deal with it.

Thank you AZRedHot for letting us know. So sad to hear of the loss of One Trick Pony. He will be remembered in our thoughts and prayers. God bless you and his family at this time of loss.

Hugs to everyone here and to his family.
What a horrible loss. He was such the nice person.
I'm at a loss for words.

RIP One Trick Pony

I had no contact with him, but he was important to someone who's important to me, so I shall mourn him.

Happy journey, One-Trick Pony.

Thank you for letting us know AZ....... I too only really knew him thru our occasional posts here, but losing anyone takes away a little bit of our community.

Thanks IWM for emailing me too!
RIP OTP...........

((((((AZ)))))) You did good.

I'm sad. Not just because he is gone but because his absence pains people I care about. Please hold on to the ones you love tight, tell them, don't wait.

I did not know him at all but this is very sad. For all of those who are hurting and for the dearly departed, we are thinking of you today

One Trick Pony will surly be missed, his humor will be missed. I knew him through smut games and he always brought a smile or laugh with him.

Thanks IWM for pointing this thread out to me and to you dear AZ for letting us know.

One-Trick Pony was one of the very first Pixies that reached out to me for friendship. We shared many e-mails and had some nice chats on IM. He was such a kind hearted man with a wonderful sense of humor.

I will miss you my friend. ((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))) to everyone that has been touched by this news and the wonderful man OTP was.

I crossed paths with OTP infrequently, but my interactions with him were always funny and sincere. He seemed to be a kind and genuine person and I'm sure he will be missed by all who knew him well.

My heart and prayers go out to everyone he touched.

He always said "We're all just making it up as we go." I'm trying right now. He was so wise. He was so good.

(((AZ)))
rest in peace, one-trick. we'll miss you

i remember when he was gone for a while and announced his return with a haiku. here's one last one, one-trick.

bright and laughing warm
held in hearts with tenderness
kisses on the memory

my condolences for all who knew him.

i hope i don't have to read such sad news too ofen.

RIP One-Trick Pony

One-trick Pony will be missed. We used to have fun in chat together he is the one who gave me the Lama tag.



R.I.P. One-Trick Pony

A loss to all who knew him....RIP OTP - peace and love to you.

To my loss I never knew One Trick Pony, but he was obviously was well loved and respected.
My heartfelt condolences go out to his friends and family...

RIP

Its sad to hear the loss of any of the pixies family, RIP One Trick Pony

We were just talking about that recently, actually, Booger. "So I says, hey Lama, how about a little something, you know, for the effort..."

I am sorry to hear that Pixies has lost a loved member.... all of us were fortunate to have gotten to know him (even if just a little) through his posts... he will be missed.

A sad day.

I wasn't close to OTP either, but he was a member in good standing of my communnity of people, & he will be missed...

My condelences to his friends and family

I really miss him..so much

Me too, T. So much it aches.

AZ and T, I just want to reach right through my monitor and hug you and hold you close.

You both are in my thoughts and prayers.

With love,
Lizz

I keep looking at all the pictures I have of him..pictures of he and his most precious granddaugther, the smile on his face...the look of love....my heart breaks for his family.

I can't say I had the pleasure of really getting to know him. I can say that his posts always had the mark of sincerity, humor, or a combination of both. This thread is a testament to the man he was and the memories he leaves behind.

Rest in peace OTP.

I have been thinking about his granddaughter too. I remember when she was born and how very proud he was of her. He adored his daughter so much and I can only imagine how her heart must be breaking with his passing away. I really pray for the family. I'm so sorry I lost contact with him over the last few months. That is a big loss for sure. :(

Those girls, his daughter and his granddaughter, were his life. He was so proud of them, adored them. Nothing put a bigger grin on his face than that baby. There was another on the way, too, and he was excited.

((((AZ)))) thank you for letting us know. It is so hard to be the bearer of news like this.

I remember OTP in chat. He was great to talk with and gave those of us there many laughs! He will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.

My heart goes out to you AZ, One-Trick Pony will be missed as will the humor and heart in his posts.
