I adore Farnsy and getting to talk with him via PM. He did have a stroke, and was so valiant and strong throughout it all, and super open.

He was a great guy with a big heart. Sending lots of love to him.

Rest easy, brother man

 

[StPaulCyclone]

Rest well, Loyal Son.

Didn't know him but recall the user. Bummer that 20 years in we are getting so damn old. RIP cyfan old head.

 

[jcyclonee]

He always seemed like a great guy. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.

I am sure he would not complain if you made a WeWill donation in his honor...

Man, this is awful. RIP Farnsy.

It's been ages since I've played mafia, but I have fond memories of him in those threads. I don't get on here as often as I used to. Didn't even know mafia had been revived!

 

[BillBrasky4Cy]

Damn that's sad. I've had a lot of interaction with Farnsy over the years and he was truly one of the good ones. Rest in peace brother.

Bummer to hear.

As @cymac2408 noted, Farnswoth avatar so recognizable (I don't remember if he ever had another screen ID on CF)

He's one of few that could claim multiple well known avatars. Before Squints he had avatar of the cartoon Doug character.

 

[DurangoCy]

Sad to hear. Thoughts and prayers to his friends and family.

Wow 41 is crazy young for strokes and such. He also didn't look like he was overweight or anything in his obit pic. Sad deal. Some people are just predisposed to horrible health problems. RIP

For those of you who did not see it, here was the thread that @Farnsworth started discussing his issue.

Summer of OT: What That Forever Changed Your Life

What is the thing that happened in your life that changed you forever or partly? It could be something small or huge change. Maybe you had a car accident and now cannot walk and use a wheelchair (not so good), or you found your 'soulmate' or won $100 million in the lotto (financial good)...

Sad to hear, condolences to friends and family.

I have doctors told I should have guarantee died three times. The last time was when I had a stroke right before my 40th birthday. They thought I wouldn't get to close to Iowa City even through the night. The other twice situations was even worse.

I also have a severe anxiety disorder (but social).

That said, I never think about death, not even a second. Ever. Probably while my health is so great. (Well physically is amazed, mentally, my brain, not so much now as I'm left with "disability" with Aphasia).

I assume to live to 100 years old, at least, but I never really think about it.

If I told a cancer diagnosis that looks bad, my reaction would thinking "hmm, well that sucks, I'll figure it out (whatever happens happens), anywho what's going on for dinner."


Edit: Same.... I should add I don't have kids, that would change my perspective.

Edit 2: at 100 year old I'd thinking about quality of life way before just going dieing. Good physical health such as walking yourself or have activities, and having a 'with it' your mental process. If I was bed ridden and with dementia, I don't care of 'living' to 100. Please pull the plug.

Done.

RIP Farnsy. I'm sorry to join this thread so late- I don't visit here as often I used to long ago, but I saw the tribute mafia game and had to find out what happened. I was always very fond of you. Smooth journeys to you in the next life, sir.
