Not sure if anybody here has been around long enough to remember Mr.Smith111. He once was very active on this board. Anyway it is very sad to say that he passed away this morning from an aggressive cancer. He was 62, if you remember him he was a great person and friend.
Unfortunately I did not have the opportunity, but it is still sad to hear. My condolences
I never met him in person but he was a big contributor to this site but exchanged many messages with him. Deepest condolences.

Thanks Captain. You’ve been a stranger as well

He was a man that nobody ever had anything bad to say about. I talked to him every week and had messaged him 2 days before his death.

Such tragic news, he was such a good dude, around those hay days of Eccie I got quite close with him, had a couple of crazy whiskey nights I still remember. I was sad to loose touch with him years ago. Condolences and prayers going out.

Wow he was a great guy. I knew hi. Back in the ASPD Days and got to know him a bit. The early eccie days we were connected but sucks and he will always hold a special place here in the hobby for sure.

He was even better than that. When my wife was dying from cancer he donated money every week to help us. I couldn't say anything bad about him if I someone paid me to. The world is a much lesser place without him.

He was a fucking asshole and a prick. Started back when he was running under the Senor Nasty flag, (pre-Smith days), back when he was a lowly ferry deckhand on The Dolph Briscoe. circa 08. (iykyk)

We shared many laughs, stories, and entirely waaay too many Miller Lites over the years and, yeah, we became pretty close friends. Once or twice a month, we'd get together and fish. and fish hard.

He was supposed to start treatments today, so I called him last night, went to voicemail, so, in typical dumbass style, I left him a message telling him, "Hey fucker, if you have any files, photos, or incriminating shit on your computer or locked-away someplace, you might want to forward that info to me before they start their voodoo-shit on your ass, so I can handle that in case, God forbid, you don't make it through. The last thing I'd want is for your wife or kids to discover is some nasty fucking pictures or videos of you and some fucking transvestites in some seedy fucking bayside motel doing whatever you sick-fucks do. Just throwing that out there if you need it. Ha! Call when you get the chance. ".
(Typical stupid shit that friends do)

His son returns my call, shortly thereafter and informs me of his passing.

Certainly was not expecting that

I mean, shit, he wasn't the epitome of 'healthy lifestyle' but there's not a single person reading this that would have ever bet that he'd pass away before El Gato. ( )

Yes, that's some pretty sick humor. That's also one of the things I'll miss most. We would always find a way to bring some humor into whatever the situation...there were no limits.

Cap'n Pants, you will be missed, my friend.
