Thaddeus Smith Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I too am in tears. He and I had some great exchanges and I was really looking forward to seeing him at the Hope gathering this April. My sincerest condolences for your loss, and prayers for your comfort.

eth2 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) BTW, BOXX's name was Kevin Croft. He was a teacher (certified in social studies and geography), and a school administrator. He graduated from the University of Texas, Southern Methodist University, University of North Texas. If someone is in the area and going to the viewing, and would like to take contributions for flowers (or something else), please let us know.

CECAA850 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I'm absolutely devastated. Kevin was high on the list of forum members I'd most like to meet. What a horrendous loss. The forum has truly lost one of the good guys. I don't know what else to say, I'm in shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eth2 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Alex, We had a survey a few weeks ago as to which of the Forum members we would most like to meet in person. Your Dad was at the top of the list. That says a great deal about how he was regarded by this Community.

Gilbert Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Very sad news Alex. I liked your dad very much. His good humor will be sorely missed. Thank you for letting us know, and please take care of yourself and your mom. Edited January 6, 2015 by Gilbert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) ..........I am in shock and deep sadness right now, as I learned this news only moments ago (7:25pm. Eastern). I JUST sent my wine shipment photos to the Fine Food and Music forum where Boxx would always be quick to respond and I was waiting for him to write at any moment... Alex, your dad and I had many close and private conversations which I know we're ment to be kept within the family, but with trust, we shared many of our issues in life and mutual consoling always followed, he was ALWAYS there. I just can't get over this sad news.......it will be very hard knowing that he will not be responding to my food photos which he loved, or many of my photos at 'Right this Minute' )0: With absolute condolences to you and your family...... ........missing your dad and my buddy Boxx..... ........Gary Edited January 6, 2015 by Tigerman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted January 6, 2015 Moderators Share Posted January 6, 2015 Very sorry to hear this, he was one of the most respected people here and always adding something good and most of the time funny to every conversation. He will surely be missed here, like carl said he was one of the people I was really looking forward to meeting in Hope. This is really hard to believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
