What to say? I got the pleasure to meet him @ AX. He was a great friend, and one of the reasons the experiense was such an amazing time. I beak out the tequila I have sitting around and I drink to you Jab/Tim may you be in a better place and may I be the friend you were.

My condolences to his family and loved ones.

I've never known Jabronisaur directly but I can't help but feel the loss even if it's from just having seen his posts over the years.

rest in peace Jab

Rip Jab. I didn't know him well but he always was such a nice, great person in the irc.
My heart goes out to his family and friends. No parents should ever have to bury their son.

Welcome to everyone coming in here for the first time, its great to see everyone coming in here to show their love.

All I can think about when I think about AX is how I spent so much time concentrating on how I was gonna surprise everyone. Jab wasn't with the main group, he was with Flyp and a few others at the dealer room when I bumped into him. I remember pulling him aside and having a little heart to heart with him. I told him how sorry I felt in 2008 about going to Florida and NOT getting a chance to see him, mainly because of conflicting schedules. I told him that I knew it was just a matter of time before we saw each other in real life, it was too close last time, and that we just had to make a positive decision later on. And that's why I chose not to skip out on this year's meetup. The picture that daigong, SexyBeam, and I took was in his honour, and I'm glad we saw and took the chance when we saw it.

Then as a bunch of us were waiting outside the dealer room just chillin on the floor, Jab said that he had bought two Platinum 9 cds, just for the chance to get a JunJun card, which I can't remember if he actually did or not. He asked me if I had one, and I didn't. He just GAVE me one. "Here ya go, man, enjoy." I said "oh no, not like that" and I gave him $20. He tried giving it back, but told him that he was just going to have to buy me a drink next time we met. Then he said "Dude, I'd have done that anyway." Later on, he tried saying in IRC that he owed me a MM card, but I reminded him of that drink. I don't mind paying for those two drinks myself, I'd do anything for the good peeps of jph!p no matter when or where. All I can think of now is his reuniting with his brother who passed away last year, I hope they can be together somehow.

Jab man, those pizza slices were more delicious in your presence, despite the insane difficulty I had in ordering it. Every SUPREME pizza from Domino's I ever order is gonna remind me of you dude. As well as all the other amazing influences you had with everyone here.

Geez that took a long time to write. I'm sure more will come to me later, when I've sort of recovered somewhat.

Having to toast with him, share a glass or two. Laugh together and just hang out. It's priceless to me. I have always looked up to him and admired what a true nice guy Jab represented in himself. I know for sure his spirit and great attitude will make its mark on so many of us. You're fucking awesome Jab, I'll never forget!

My condolences to his family and loved ones. Rest in peace bro.

I didn't know you except from the posts of you i've seen on the forum, but from people around i figured you were a great guy.

Condolences to friends and family.

Rest in Peace

Shinora · « **Reply #187 on:** July 17, 2009, 06:48:15 AM »

Man... I'm not sure what to say.

Though I have never met Jab face to face (regrettably so), he was one of the first people I had the chance to talk when i first joined the forums. Always a beacon of laughter, there to cheer anyone up no matter who it is.

my condolences to his family. Jab buddy, you will be missed.

Owaranai_sLaVe · « **Reply #188 on:** July 17, 2009, 06:58:15 AM »

I gotta admit, I didn't know Jab very well. To be honest, I only had spoken my few words to him when he would start casual chats with me at the irc. I enjoyed his friendliness and his subtle jokes.
I don't know much about Jab 'cept that everyone liked him and that he's contributed a lot to JPHIP. So I can only imagine good things about him.

I wish I had known earlier before acting like nothing has happened all over the forum

. Jab, I'm sorry I didn't get the time to know you better. Condolences to your family and may the Lord be with you.

Even though I haven't been posting, I've been definitely keeping tabs on this thread in my lurker way. Though I'm not a person of any organized faith, there are times that I find too many coincidences surrounding a single moment to make me wonder if there isn't something karmic happening:

I've only been lurking on jphip for a little over half a year now, and focusing on IshiYoshi stuff, and I don't do IRC. So I never crossed paths with Jab in any significant way to my memory.

I remember meeting him at the bowling alley for AX and when he introduced himself. I was thrown off because I didn't realize he was saying his alias rather than an easily recognizable first name, (and the loud music and chatter contributed to my momentary confusion.) And that was the most of our encounter for the rest of the trip, since I tend to stay lone wolf and do my own thing.

After AX, I realized I became an Aika fan because she was absolutely cute and adorable. So I checked out her official thread on this board to get a sense of other peoples' take on her and I came across this posting by Jab:
http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=7305.msg582465#msg582465

I was truly impressed. Enough to think about responding, and even putting a Thanks (both of these acts really being very rare for me.) But, as usual, I got distracted and moved on to other things.

A couple of hours later, when I revisited the board, Dai posted the alert about Jab being deathly ill.

Then to see the posting of his passing. (Dai, again, thank you for including me in the text blast. I guess I really am part of the jphip family in a second or third cousin kind of way.)

And now, well... everyone has posted better words than I ever could on Jab as a person.

It's a moment like this that reminds me of my own brush with an intense illness several years ago that has permanently changed my perspective that life is will always seem very short no matter how old you are. So always make the most of it by looking forward, and by cherishing the lessons and memories (and people) you encountered to form who you are now.

I can't believe this happen. I never got the chance to meet you or heard of you until the news of your sickness. I was all set up to go AX, but I haven't enough money to buy airplanes. All I have to say is R.I.P. JABRONISAUR.

mode107 · « **Reply #191 on:** July 17, 2009, 07:25:34 AM »

I've never met him but when you're on JPH!P, you feel like you know the members here well.
I was shocked when I saw this... R.I.P

lollipopgirl · « **Reply #192 on:** July 17, 2009, 07:43:12 AM »

JABBY!!!! *huggles* You're greetings were larger than life, and so was your personality

Since you've been sick, you've been in my thoughts every single day & I always wake up to come and see if there was new info on you getting better... As much as I feared this, I never expected it!

So much support & love radianted from Jabby all the time, and even when he put his mod hat on and had to tell u to do something, he did so in the nicest way possible & always with warmth. The IRC won't be the same again, not with such an important brother missing.
I never got to speak to him after AX

but god I couldn't be happier that he got to meet JunJun (and the other girls) & even if he didn't realise it, I'm sure he made a mark in Jun's life by showing the fan he was!

Forever he'll be loved & cherised, our Jabby <3 Sending all my love & condolences to his family, friends and everyone here who was close to him. Its time like this when u realise how important things in your life are & Jabby would want us to remember that!

J-Man, I WILL get that fic that I promised you finished one day... I really wish I'd done it soon but I know you'll be watching over us anyway & it will give you something to do when we're all being boring viewing... Love & miss you

JAB!

It's always the good ones that have to die...

My condolences to Tim's family & friends. I can't even imagine how bad you feel right now.

I have known Tim for a few years and he's without a doubt one of the nicest people I have ever met online. He also truly cared about his friends. I had a wisdom tooth pulled out a few months ago and he would always ask me if I was feeling alright whenever we met in the chatroom. Now that's what I call a true friend. Tim was also a big part of the Crackstaff and it was real a pleasure working with him. I could always rely on him whenever I needed help and he was full of ideas how to improve our community. That man truly loved JPH!P and his fellow HiPsters

After laughter comes tears...

Jab had been going through some hard times lately and I was really happy for him that he got to meet fellow HiPsters and Morning Musume at AX. I never could have imagined that the amazing AX adventure would have such a tragic ending...

Jab, I'm gonna miss you bro and I promise that you will be remembered as long as JPH!P is alive

R.I.P. Jabronisaur

Flyp · « **Reply #194 on:** July 17, 2009, 08:23:09 AM »

I just spent the last couple hours crying, talking with my mom, and thinking about my bro Tim. I'm still having problems finding words right now, I've never been good at expressing my thoughts and emotions, but I'll try my best. Sorry for the disjointed writing, my mind's not working well ^^;;

I'm so grateful I got to room with him in LA. When the announcement was made about MM coming to A-X and I started making plans to travel, I asked him if he wanted a roommate, and he was more than happy to room with me, thank you Jab! What keeps coming to mind was how kind he was to everyone at A-X. First met him IRL at the In-n-Out, gave him a big hug like I had known him my whole life. Getting autographs for other Hipsters that couldn't make the trip was a high priority for him, constantly thinking of others. Whenever we'd talk about the autograph sessions he talked about "I still need to get autographs for so-and-so!" He got up super-early to get over to the 2nd autograph session. He was constantly doing drink runs for us in the hotel, buying me sodas because I was broke the first two days. He and daigong left the charity auction early to walk back to the hotel with me when I had to leave for the airport, and we had some epic picture moments, including one last jab and flip, this time captured forever by dai's camera.

Jab, my man, you are one of kindest, most caring dudes I've ever met. You'll be in my heart forever, man, and I'll always think to myself, What Would Jab Do? Jab's spirit will live on forever, because he's changed my life for the better. I'll be expecting you to flip me over when I see ya on the other side, man. I love you, brother, I'll never forget you!

.......

I didn't really know Jab personally, but I've always known him to be an active member in this board. He was pretty much O.G. I'm
sad to know that he wont be here anymore.

My condolences to his family & friends. I'll pray for for them as they are going through this difficult time.

R.I.P Jab.

I mean ... I don't know what to say ...

Condolences to friends & family.

RIP Jab.

Missing you Jab

I'm at a loss for words

. My condolences to his family and friends.
I really wish I got to know him better but I could tell he was such a nice guy enjoying the AX experience as best as he could.
Rest in Peace Jab.

adventwriter · « **Reply #199 on:** July 17, 2009, 08:48:33 AM »

I think that first I must apologize for not knowing Jab well - unfortunately due to my extended lurker status here. His presence could definitely be felt, even if you didn't know him. I don't feel right saying anything after everyone who knew him, but something was drawing me out of the shadows to say something - anything.

Rest in peace Jabronisaur. The H!P fandom and everyone you came in contact with will surely miss you. And while I am not a religious man by any stretch of the imagination I will definitely keep your family and your second family here and elsewhere in my thoughts and prayers.
