Title: RIP Eric (efish)
Post by: Voodoochild on May 04, 2017, 03:48:33 PM
Just been told by Amanda that Eric passed away. Not sure what happened or how, but I'm pretty sad about this.

People who have been here and at some other boards know him as Efish. He was always a good guy and will be missed. 

R.I.P.

This is devastating. Such a nice guy, one of my closest online friends back then. Not sure what went wrong along the way...

May he rest in peace  :'(

Just spoke with him two weeks ago about reconnecting to do Riot Fest again this year. Was defintely quite the shock to read the news on Facebook this morning. At least we know he's at peace now.

I remember efish, and I will NEVER forget him! He was such an amazing person and an amazing fan! We hung out at one of the vegas residencies, and orlando and miami shows. We just spoke on april 9th, talking abt how excited we were about meeting up at the miami show. He will be so dearly missed. Love you efish!

No problem guys. I actually wasnt in touch with him all those years, but he was one of the guys who really push the love for the band 10-12 years ago. And that era was strange and awesome, and when I met my soon-to-be wife at Reynics and chineseblues board. And he was always kind and overall, a nice person. He will be trully missed.

Sad news... I'm sorry to hear this and send my condolences n love to his family and friends. eFish was someone I knew from much posting on this board way back when and was a pleasure to finally meet him at one of the residencies. A great guy, RIP eFish Xx

E-Fish was one of the first people I ever talked to on GN'R boards daily for a period. Hadn't spoken to him in a decade. Had a falling out over something silly, that I should have apologized to him and Mandy for a very long time ago.

He was very young and ran a site where he'd be able to get Bumblefoot online for regular chats.

Not sure what else to say, but this was way before his time.

Sympathies to his friends and family. Rest in Peace E-Fish.

While efish and myself never really got along it is sad to hear he has passed at such a young age. Such a shame, thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

Damn. EFISH was absolutely a great online friend of mine all those years ago. Lost touch with him when he quit the messageboards. I really loved gnr2k, it was a great site with great fans. Basically what everyone has said was my experience with him as well, really passionate fan. Never got to meet him but I'm sure he'd be a really nice guy. Thanks for the good times Eric!

Very sorry to hear this..As years go by, quite a few have sadly passed away.

I wonder how many of us will still stand, in another twenty years ?

Have fun Eric, whereever you are now.
