Sorry to hear that, he always struck me as a super nice guy

As Bearcat pro says, the increasing rate of these types of threads around here is just sickening

RIP, Gonzo

Why is it that, even though I've never met the person in real life, nor can even remember any specific interaction here on CP, that I feel like I lost a family member.....It so crazy the "bond" that you have with posters here, for no other reason than we share a common bond by liking the Chiefs.....good, bad, or otherwise, we're all part of one big dysfunctional family, and it sucks to lose such an integral part of that family.

RIP Gonzo

Shit... I don't post every day, but there aren't many days that go by that I don't catch up on Chiefs news and such here. I've read many of the posts here for 20+ years, and Gonzo was one of my favorites. RIP old friend....

It’s the thing that unites us all to be here - our love for the Chiefs. You are all crazy, mentally unhealthy SOB’s, but I love you all like Family. We’ve shared our ups and downs and many of our life experiences via this Message Board through the years. The births, the weddings, the job promotions, the firings, the divorces and unfortunately the deaths. This site and the people here hold a special place in my heart. I never met Gonzo in person, nor any other CP member, but losing anyone from our Community hurts just the same.

Let’s stay healthy, folks. I don’t want to see another one of these threads for a long while

An extra post he repped. Super sad now looking at the post. Pestilence, you good bro? This list may make me start worrying about you leaving CP. -

Did he used to go by another moniker?

I feel kind of ashamed but I have no idea who "Gonzo" is.

I think he kinda sorta fit in the gap of your hiatus. Started getting more active in 2009ish and kind of faded maybe 2018ish.

Sad to hear. One of the greats. RIP Gonzo.

Just wanted to hop on here and thank everyone who kept Jason’s (Gonzo’s) family and our son, Hunter, in your thoughts and prayers. We all said our goodbyes to him yesterday at his memorial. With our son having autism though, he doesn’t quite understand death and he doesn’t acknowledge his father is gone. I did, however, walk with him up to Jason’s ashes after the memorial and asked him to say “goodbye, I love you, dad” and I broke down in tears when he said it.

From what his mom told me, he was sick for some time and his doctor had diagnosed him with a thyroid problem and put him on meds. Sadly, that wasn’t the case and apparently he was slowly bleeding internally for some time. I was originally told by his dad that it was complications due to colitis and I assume that the bleeding was related. Regardless, Jason’s death was a devastating shock to all of us. The saddest part is that he was a few hours away at his parent’s lake house when this happened and I wasn’t notified so that Hunter could tell his dad goodbye.

With Jason’s death, it made me come to the realization that so many of us take our health for granted, as well as those that we love. If there’s something that I can suggest to all of you, it’s this... take care of yourselves and please get a second opinion if you still don’t feel well. Furthermore, please set aside your differences when it comes to people in your past. Especially if you have a child or children with them.

Again, I am very thankful to all of you who remembered Gonzo the way that he should be remembered on this board. Peace and hugs to all of you.
