I received a message that John Crowder - known here as @KayakinBoy - passed away unexpectedly a couple of days ago. I know he hasn't been around here recently, but I'm sure that some of the guys that have been around for a while will remember him. I first met John in December of 2004. He came into the Tinder Box in Chattanooga, TN where I worked and we struck up a conversation. He told me about Cigar Pass and I'm pretty sure I joined when I got home that night. John began coming in regularly and we started hanging out pretty often. Eventually, I got him hired on at the Tinder Box and we worked there together for some time.

I won't pretend that John and as are as close now as we once were. I moved away three years after we became friends so I didn't see him nearly as often. These days we would trade messages a few times a year and always say we should meet up next time I was back down in Chattanooga. Regrettably, that didn't happen.

Time isn't unlimited. Spend it with friends when you get the chance.

John, I'll miss you buddy.

Thank you for sharing, though, and I'm sorry for such a loss.
