Guys, I just walked out of the gym and had a message. Unfortunately MBRO, Larry was his real name, passed away yesterday morning. I'm sitting in the parking lot freaking crying. I hate this, but I'm thankful for the opportunity I had to become friends with him. Not only here, but Facebook, and conversations we shared through text. My heart is hurting, but heaven is a little brighter today with our beloved friend there.

No words. I'll continue to pray for him and his family. I hope he knew how appreciated his words and prayers meant to me. Even when he was dealing so much, he still praying and thinking of others.

I'd say it's the most important part. When I first signed up I was just looking for a place to talk about UT football. Now I've got several people that I consider genuine friends that I've met here.

Going through MBRO's posts, this response to volly. I think all of us agree. There are so many of us on VN, but some of us have clicked in these off threads.

Absolutely. It's wild how a football message board brought people into my life that I think about, pray for, talk to my wife about. I'm thankful for it, and you guys.

I looked at the OP in this thread. March of this year.

Ive got a tear and a lump in my throat. I'm fighting off crying. Like some or all of you, I only knew him from here, but I did feel like I knew him. We shared the same appreciation for music and the Vols.

We were about the same age and are from a couple of towns over from each other and shared the same "stomping grounds". Who knows, maybe we met once and never knew it.

Meh, I'm just thinking out loud. It can happen to any of us or anyone close to us, just like that.

RIP Friend. I will continue prayer for your family.

I am so sorry to hear about MBRO. He will be greatly missed. He seemed like a great guy. When something like this happens it makes you reflect on what is important. While I like to cut up and have fun. I would never intentionally say something to harm someone on here. That is one of the things I like about the Endzone and the Pub. You guys. for the most part, can take it and dish it out well. It is hard to tell EXACTLY the intent of a post or if it was just sarcasam. My post are all in fun and my humor can get rough at times. If I ever get pissed there will be no doubt that I am not kidding. I hope I am good with you guys. I would hate for something to happen to you and I didn't say or try to explain myself. Praying for MBRO's family.

Having fun in here is one of the best things about this place. It's literally been my therapy dealing with my wife. Wibdy said it good, some of us just click (even though it may look to others like we gonna fight😄). Larry was a good dude, and will be missed.

When his wife told me they had to put him in the hospital I got concerned, then really worried yesterday when I didn't get a response. It sucks.

Me too. I typed out "I don't like this" this morning but then I deleted it on the chance his daughter popped in. I didn't want to sound like I'd given up.

I'm sick.

My heart is broken. I’ve been praying so hard for God to heal him for his family but know he is now in the presence of Jesus. All my best wishes and prayers for his family to be comforted by Jesus’ promise of everlasting life. 😪

YHWH did heal him☺️ No more pain no more disappointment no more hurt. He’s in the presence of glory and it’s shining bright it just has a little more orange tint to it than it did.

Oh no, oh no...

RIP MBRO, and prayers for you and your family, especially your daughter. I remember you telling us how terrified she was when you told her of your diagnosis.

No more pain, no more fear. Peace to you and yours. Shalom.

I'm thankful he got to see his baby girl graduate. That meant the world to him, and her plays she was in.
