Title: Just received news, sad news, Good Bye Red :
Post by: squirrelof09 on November 01, 2009, 11:25:38 PM
An old player that used to be "high ranked" in my clan FTD many years ago who goes by "Red" (Do not confused with Red_Devil) has been killed in a car accident in October. About two years ago he disappeared from battlezone 2 all together and was rarely seen online. Since then I would take a look at my messenger to see if he would ever sign on. Today "red" signed on, except, it wasn't red...
Quote(4:41:43 PM) squirrelof09 ---: Hey, I call you Red since that's all I know you by
(4:41:46 PM) squirrelof09 ---: How are you?
(5:08:17 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman: who is this?
(5:08:26 PM) squirrelof09 ---: You don't remember me?
(5:08:50 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman: Honey, this is Red's mom. I can only assume you have not heard
(5:08:58 PM) squirrelof09 ---: Heard what?
(5:09:20 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman: He as killed in a car accident on Oct 16th
(5:09:23 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman: was*
(5:09:31 PM) squirrelof09 ---: Oh.
(5:09:49 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman: I did not realize that his Yahoo was enabled

(5:10:15 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman has signed off.
(5:14:05 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman: Sorry to have broken the bad news.
(5:14:50 PM) squirrelof09 ---: it's cool. I've kinda worried about him a little. I mean, i live in alabama, but we played games quite a lot to know him a little personal. used to talk with him in voice servers a lot.
17:15
(5:16:10 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman: He has been working out of town alot lately so he was hardly on anymore.
(5:16:46 PM) thexxoutsiderx Coleman: if you go to www.mem.com and type in Jonathan Coleman to can see the man you met online

I didn't know this guy in person, but I got to talk with him a lot when we had a teamspeak server going some time ago. He did not have many sober years in his life, but he was always a fun teammate to have in battlezone.

Since I started to get FTD going again, I've been trying to get in contact with my old friends of the clan. Red would have been the first person I would have had contact with again if I hadn't found that information out.

I don't know what else to say here, It's time for me to head to church.

He's going to be missed.

Sorry for the lack of words when I first posted this.

Even though he was an online buddy, it still affects a person. :(

Red, we played many strats :). He could never win against me though, lol...

God Bless his family, and goodbye Red.

But you could have a hidden health problem that he doesn't have.
