Have to say you got me all choked up again, but that was beautiful. His children were beautiful and I enjoyed hearing about their thoughts on their Dad. I am so going to miss him. But every time I misspell a word I am sure he will be wishing he could reprimand me in his usual style. Thank you Stu for doing what I would find impossible to do...and for being a wonderful friend. I wanna meet you someday so I can deliver a nice big hug to you.

I use to drive Dean fuck-hole crazy when I would say "Of coarse...." instead of "Of course." Every time I would say it, he would comment on it saying that I drive him totally loopy about not keeping the right word in perspective and in the correct context. His response's were golden because he never went one post without letting me hear how it drove him insane. Good stuff.

I really wish I could have been there but this is the next best thing. My heart really goes out to Lulu and the kids. I hope they pull through this, and I wish we could organize something here on the site to help them out... Any ideas anyone?

Funny you should say that John... I was thinking about that just this evening... we were out at one of our favorite restaurant/pubs and the Blackhawks game was on, and I started thinking "omg, who am I left to trade smack with when playoff time comes?" because CHI and VAN have faced off the last 3 straight years and it was a lot of fun every year just shooting the shit with Dean during those series.![]()
Such a bummer.

I am all for donating money for the baby. What about Dean's funeral expenses. I know with my father, that even a simple cremation, plus viewing and service the next day cost me $4,000. It would have been double that had I proceeded with an actual burial.

Still can't believe he's gone., but definitely not the rest of me. Now that the NHL playoffs are on the horizon, I think that I'll be a Canucks fan just this one season.

I can relate. Dean and I had quite the time going back and forth during The Stanley Cup Finals last season. Dude LOVED the Canucks, and couldn't stand that they didn't beat the Bruins. I'd love to see the Canucks pull it off this season just to know that Dean would enjoy every second of it.

Deano was always mentioning you in trying to get me to talk to you about get-together's but we all knew your stance haha.

He loved his hockey and Canada, especially Vancouver. I don't know how many times he sent me the link to that Vancouver Olympic celebration of Canada's Gold Medal win over the US........."doesn't that make ya just tear up?" He had such pride in all things Vancouver and hockey.

Dean was on my case forever to meet up with him, and I am truly sorry that I didn't. I genuinely really, really liked the dude. We communicated so much over so many years, that I felt like we knew each other well. It's was sort of odd. As for a future meeting, anything is possible, but you are correct Travis that it's a bit difficult with two young children. One of these days

There is a super embarrassing picture of the 2 of us passed out on a couch. RVR has seen it. Dean HATED that pic.

Post it, Ed. If it's the one I think it is, it's great.

It was posted once before. Dean really didn't like it. Going against his wishes now? I don't know. Besides, it's embarrassing for me as well.
It really is a funny pic though.
