A memory of a passed DUer popped into my head recently. Pinboy3niner.

I miss his sense of humor and gentle soul. A master of puns, he'd have us all cracking up over this current situation.

1. Thank you for reminding us!

[Aristus]

2. Yes, he is missed.

[2naSalit]

4. Definitely one of the greats.

5. There are a lot of great people here, but he was my favorite

He served as an Infantry Platoon Leader in Vietnam and I served in the same position in Iraq. I always felt a certain kinship with him because of that. I looked up to him as an example how one can overcome the experience of war and still be a productive and valuable person in society.

Seeing a guy like him survive and thrive 40+ after his war showed me that I could do the same.

He wasn’t all talk when it came to making the world a better place, he volunteered and improved the community he lived in. If I’m not mistaken, he worked with local youth to build homes for the disadvantaged. I’ve heard many stories of his generosity and great heart.

My biggest supporter

He was one of our best.

7. I remember him fondly...

A gentleman with a great sense of humour.

8. I join your sentiment

9. My favorite DUer

Pinboy and I had a few off site discussions about my Viet Nam vet husband, so I always looked for his posts and puns. He was involved with the traveling VN wall exhibit if I remember correctly. He was a real man. And could sling a pun better than anyone I've seen!

10. His facility with quips and puns...

...was truly deserving of the over-used AWESOME!

Whenever I see someone post something exceptionally clever, I think of him.

11. I miss him.

[William769]

13. ...

[lastlib]

14. I miss him as well!

His wit was unequalled, that's for sure! I got into a couple of "pun wars" with him, but he was unquestionably THE master!

RIP, Pinboy3niner! We loved ya!

[DENVERPOPS]

15. I miss Molly Ivins

thank goodness for Nanc Rants. But she is serious, unlike Molly Ivin's sarcasm.....

[al bupp]

16. So say we all /nt

[klook]

17. Pinboy was a big cheese around here.

He was a gouda guy. His brilliant/terrible puns got my goat many times. He was a muenster of a punster.

[Skittles]

18. I loved him dearly

I miss him a lot
