DeafParrot Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Just heard about this a little while ago, got a text telling me literally 45 mins after hearing that my aunt has passed away with cancer tonight as well. Both of them are no age at all, she's only 55. I can't believe it. Jim was one of the people on here that I've spoken to the most, both on the forum and on msn. Great guy and always a good laugh. So shocked by the news, especially today. RIP Serps, cya mate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhoy Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I did not expect this when I logged on five minutes ago.

Neil Dejyothin Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I'm extremely gutted to hear about this today. He may not have been a permanent member of staff, but I always looked towards him for guidance when it came to handling issues on these forums, because he was simply the best at it and with this sad news, the SI family has lost a real stalwart because these were his forums. RIP Jim and thanks for your sterling effort over the years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brousky Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 At the risk of a ban I would like to give my condolences to everyone close to Serps. He seemed to be one of the only members on here who tolerated me and for that I am grateful. It just occured to me that in my relatively short time on the boards I never once saw him post a bad word about anyone and that, for me, speaks volumes.

Sir Stuart Wilson Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 You wouldn't think hearing news even like this about a name you see on an internet forum could affect you but I am absolutely blown away by that, having read and communicated for years through this board it really is a sad day. My thought go out to all his friends and family. You were a cracking guy Serps and I am only sad that I never got to know you more than a name on a screen. We'll meet one day mate.

Powlay Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I think something OTF related flower wise at Jims funeral would be fitting. Then maybe look into a justgiving page and see whats raised for a charitble donation, or maybe depending on burial a memorial bench? Something that will outlast those who he has so obviously touched with his posts, his wit and his ****. (it had to be said, many will remember the incident on the floor!) Anyway no doubt people will have ideas over the coming weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Readingfanman Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Absolutley gutting this news. Complete shock. Will be more than willing to put money towards a wreath or Hull City shirt or a charity.

merry_miller Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Personally like the idea of a brick at the KC, he was Hull City through and through and it's a more permanent memorial than flowers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Governor Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I really can't believe this. I was only reading some of his posts last night and now this.

The Governor Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Is it worth setting up a Just Giving page now? I have an account there and it should be straightforward. Obviously happy to leave it/pass on the running of it to someone closer to him in due course. Scrap that, it has to be charity-specific. Perhaps it's best if donations are collected by one person centrally, from others via Paypal, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aston_martin Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Just before I go to bed, I'd like to add to the sentiments again, what a big part of OTF he was, he really was part of the furniture. Whenever I went on OTF in my history in this part of the forum, even when I hadn't posted that much and still spent most of my time in the FM part of the forums, whenever I came over here, there was always something to do with Serpico.
