Sad news. Just received word that NYTexan passed away today. I believe it was a heart attack, but I don't have details yet.
Prayers up for his family and love ones.
Godspeed, Dear Patriot.
God bless,
Thank you penelopesire for letting us all know of John’s passing, this is heartbreaking news.
John was my anchor to sanity. We laughed alot together, and he loved you all very much, as we do him.
John, you are remembered most fondly and lovingly by all of us, and your absence from us is aching.
Rest in peace gentle man. I love you.
Little Man was very upset. I am sort of numb today. Still can’t believe it.
May he rest in peace.

He loved every minute of cat herding.
Just damn.
He was a good friend and a great guy and will be sorely missed by many.
So surreal. Oddly enough, Mr. Pen and I had spent the day shopping for some extra chairs for deck and patio and doing some gardening in back yard trying to spruce the place up for a party for the FW & Texas gang as soon as the stupid kitchen remodal was finished. John and I had talked about it Thursday evening. We were thinking of making a big deal of it and calling the Houston crowd to get up here too! He was all ready to bring food and of course his KA margaritas! Today the plants are sitting right where I put them down yesterday. I don’t feel much like gardening right now. John was one of the sweetest men I have ever meet and I loved him the second I met him! He was one of those kind of folks....easy to love and be with! He would always laugh at all my dumb and crazy stories. :(
I know it is no substitute, but Mr. Pen and I are here for you anytime you need someone to talk to or just help out anyway we can. We will be your rock anytime you need one. I am so so sorry to have had to be the bearer of such devastating news to all of you who loved him so much.
Hard to believe.
I think he was my age or a bit younger perhaps.
*HUG*
Yes, he did!
Hey, this is hard for YOU, too!
You let us know out of love for him and for us.
You are a sweet lady, and I for one am grateful
to you for letting us know!
*HUG*
Thinking of you, Ms Lauren and hoping you are okay.
I hate being so far away!
RIP NYTexan
Condolences to the family and friends left behind.
One never knows when or who’s next.
Keep the faith and stay above the yellow line.
“celebrated and honored TC with the 11th one in October of 2016.”
Maybe now it can become, “The TCNYT Shootout”.
Thank you for your kind words, Megs. He is already being missed by all of us. (((Hugs)))
Never. There will be a huge sense of loss every time we’re all together.
God blessings as you enter His life.
Beautiful idea.
We hate you being so far away.
You should be able to locate this info online sometime tomorrow if not today. You just need his full name and city. If an autopsy is being done it will be longer.
Families do get upset at “outsiders” often.. being caught up in the element of surprise and grief does make many less than agreeable
