Strider Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Nooooooooooooo! Another piece of my childhood gone. Sam Spence, the man whose music gave grace and verve to the NFL highlights in the 1960s and '70s, has died. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/02/09/sports/football/sam-spence-who-set-the-fierce-dance-of-the-nfl-to-music-in-film-dies-at-88.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuchsia Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 For those of you who remember the poster Styrbjorn, he passed away suddenly just after Christmas. He is missed more than words can describe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuchsia Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I am sure there are others who could do that. He had many friends. I will just say that he was witty, colossally intelligent, had an anarchic sense of humour, and was pretty much unbiddable If you were his friend you had to take him as you found him, but it was worth it. He has left a hollow in my world at any rate. And since I'm posting on this forum, I'll say that he was also a Zep scholar. Thanks for reading.

I didn't have any personal exchanges with him, so I didn't get to know him, but I do remember him. I'm very sorry for your loss. I hope his family are doing ok. ♥ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with that following the death of political or religious figures. So long as the "spirit and intent" of the content restriction is upheld I don't see a problem, however the admins can always pull posts as necessary.
