JIZZLORD Memorial Thread

Konata · 12-09-2010 9:11am #1

As many of you may know by now, a special boardsie - JIZZLORD - passed away at the age of 23 on Thursday.

I've known Colm for a fair few years now - us both being from the same hometown, it was an inevitable encounter. The most important thing I can emphasize about him is his genuine niceness - I don't think there was a bad bone in his body. He was quiet and often shy but once you got chatting to him, he'd have you in stitches

On boards, he was a well known poster - often if only for his epic username :P I've heard that he was quite active on the boards IRC in the past and I'm sure many remember him from there.

It's a terrible tragedy to hear of people dying so young - and this really hits home when it's someone close to you. I can only extend my deepest sympathies to Colm's family, friends and anyone who has been lucky enough to cross paths with him.

RIP Colm, you will be sorely missed by all

My sympathies to his family.

OP, can it be shared what took him? or is it a private matter?

God rest him, and my condolences to all of you who knew him.

Although the cause of death has not been officially established yet, I believe that Colm had an epilectic fit and died from complications arising from that.

Super-Rush · 12-09-2010 9:26am

I still can't get my head round this.

RIP Colm.

DOC09UNAM · 12-09-2010 9:36am

I didn't know him at all but from what i've read here and in the galway forum he seemed like a top class bloke

R.I.P Colm

biko · 12-09-2010 9:42am

Yeah sweet guy. Only met him a few times but was very nice.
RIP.

AckwelFoley · 12-09-2010 9:47am

I was chatting him at the beers a few years back and we were discussing our mutual affection for bears

Anyhow, i remember asking him what part of england he was from.. he swiftly told me he wasnt english

He spoke with such a soft voice that it, to me kinda was like english.

Nice guy.. im kinda sickened by this..

galwayrush · 12-09-2010 9:53am

Never met him, but know the user name well from Boards. Shocked to hear he's dead, and at 23 :eek:. Shocking. R.I.P.

Mint Sauce · 12-09-2010 9:59am

Never met Colm myself, but remember the posts here on afterhours, from reading the Sligo and Galway threads he was clearly loved, a great character, and will be missed.

Just shows you never know when your going to go, live every moment.

Condolonces to his Family, friends and everyone who knew him.

RIP

Tom Dunne · 12-09-2010 10:05am

At times like this, it really puts into perspective our petty squabbles here on Boards.ie and in broader life.

Such a tragedy at such a young age.

Daisy Steiner · 12-09-2010 10:08am

Thanks for posting Hotaru.

Sincere condolences to his family, friends and acquaintances.

So very sad.

The Big Red Button · 12-09-2010 10:15am

Link to the funeral arrangements, for anyone who might be interested in attending.

RIP Colm.

Also it shows the friendships that have come about due to boards, years ago people would think you'd be half mad to meet a stranger from the internet but a saying I heard a long time ago, "A stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet" I never knew the man but I have read the posts here, from people that have met him and others that knew him through his posts and it goes to show the impact you can have on someones life without even knowing it.
May he rest in peace and sincere condolences to Colm's family and friends.

Adam · 12-09-2010 10:49am

RIP Colm, thinking of friends and family at this very sad time.

My condolences Hotaru.

storm2811 · 12-09-2010 11:05am

I've never met him but from his posts and the posts here he was obviously a nice guy and was admired.
23 is too young for anyone to go.:(
RIP.

Condolences to his family and friends.

Wow.. that's hard to believe

RIP Colm, and condolences to his family & friends

Kold · 12-09-2010 11:15am

RIP JIZZLORD. Actually one of the only AH posters I liked.

Michael B · 12-09-2010 11:26am

RIP JIZZLORD. I remember laughing out loud the first time I saw his username and at some of his posts. Thoughts are with his family.

epgc3fyqirnbsx · 12-09-2010 11:30am

RIP dude

I wandered past the house that night, still getting shivers

Fratton Fred · 12-09-2010 11:33am

RIP Jizzlord. A good poster.

Sparky · 12-09-2010 11:37am

Colm was a regular on IRC, we were only chatting to him the other day and then he was idle.
It's a great shock where I myself and the rest of us still cannot believe it.

Colm was very down to earth and had a great sense of humor.
You'll be missed Colm

Sweet Jesus.

I thought I was clicking on a 'poster leaving boards.ie' type of thread.

Used to have some crack with Jizz

And as shocked as we all are here one can only imagine how earth shattering its been for his family & close friends.

Just listening to REM 'Everybody hurts' as I opened this thread, needless to say we're all hurting at this terrible news.

I'm stunned.

RIP Colm/Jizzlord.

daltonm · 12-09-2010 11:41am

I didn't know the man but RIP and condolences to his family and friends.

R0ot · 12-09-2010 11:42am

Always a joker, remember meeting him on IRC for the first time and then in person and he was a great lad. RIP

Chuchoter · 12-09-2010 11:46am

Never spoken to the guy, but he seemed nice. So sorry Hotaru, must be tough. My heart goes out to the family:(

stovelid · 12-09-2010 11:47am

Such a sad thing to hear and for such a young man.

RIP and thoughts to his friends and family.

kylith · 12-09-2010 11:59am

So sorry to hear this. I'd never met him and I'm saddened I'll never get to. RIP.

Ruu_Old · 12-09-2010 12:05pm

Rest in peace, very sad.

gandalf · 12-09-2010 12:52pm

RIP at 23 he was way too young to leave us

D4RK ONION · 12-09-2010 1:29pm

He was only a bit older than myself, really scares me, stuff like this. And that he was only diagnosed with epilepsy a few weeks before hand... Really shocking stuff.

R.I.P. man

phasers · 12-09-2010 1:37pm

My God, I used to love reading his posts.

RIP, my thoughts are with his family and friends

ToniTuddle · 12-09-2010 1:39pm

It's really sad

Poor family and friends

R.I.P

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 12-09-2010 1:45pm

woke up this morning hoping it would turn out to be some sort of bad joke from last night

you just don't think of epilepsy as being something that could take someone like that, especially when he'd only been diagnosed so recently.

it still hasn't sunk in at all that he's gone.

Thrill · 12-09-2010 1:46pm

Really sad news. I didn't know him but his user-name would stand out a mile every time he posted.

R.I.P. JIZZLORD.

Dudess · 12-09-2010 1:50pm

Jesus, I always thought any time I saw his username "That guy obviously has a fantastic sense of humour

".

Wow, so terribly tragic - and terrifying that something so random could bring a life to an end...

Wertz · 12-09-2010 1:50pm

Shocking news. My sincerest condolences to his family and friends. Always had a lot of time for his posts/threads. We lost one of the better ones and at such a young age.

Gummy Panda · 12-09-2010 2:03pm

RIP Jizzlord.

I liked his posts and loved his username.

Fart · 12-09-2010 2:16pm

R.I.P. Jizzlord.

I've heard of too many young deaths around me within the past month.

ibarelycare · 12-09-2010 2:26pm

Very sad news. RIP.
