Man.
This is a real blow.

You can click on the obituary in the first post. There is a condolence section there, you can leave a message for the family.

RIP. I learned a lot from him.

 

[my nellie]

So sorry to hear about your dad, Darlene.

What?

 

[Underdog]

He was one of the first to reach out to me when I joined here to offer solid advice. Never belittled you for dumb rookie moves, just an okay, since you did that I would suggest this. But, don't do that again... He was a hoot on the phone and I can only imagine in person.
RIP Brother

 

[Cadillactaste]

What?

I deleted my post ...Grimmy wasn't my dad. Didn't want to hijack the thread. Carry on. Sorry for the confusion.

 

[JudyB]

Well that sucks. I think he went thru a bad patch with the fungal thing that ate his trees with more grace than many of us would have and still came out with a love for growing things. I will miss him.

 

[CWTurner]

Sad news. The guy was tough, what with digging a giant landscape yew a couple years ago. Hope it lives on to memorialize him.
Never got to meet him, but PM'ed him an invite to my local club meeting. Said he never attended a PA Bonsai Society meeting. Anyone know if he frequented the Lehigh Valley club?

Rip @GrimLore

Very sad news for his family, for all of us here, and likely for anyone else who had the pleasure to know him. Didn't know he was a fellow vet - though I wasn't Army - but still ..... I will offer prayers for him and all who will miss him - which are a great many.

 

[Silentrunning]

I hate when this happens. You just get to know a good person and then they are gone.

Damn....
Mmm....
Life is fleeting.
Very sad news...
Damn....
RIP Friend.
I know you're in a better place now.

 

[Djtommy]

Too early...my condolences

 

[BunjaeKorea]

Today is a sad day and massive loss for bonsai. Grimmy was a top bloke.... I enjoyed chatting with him and he was always insightful. He helped me out a lot, will sincerely miss him.

 

[Cable]

Well now I have a sad. :-(

@GrimLore was one of the first to welcome me here and cracked me up with his "advice"; so much so that one of his pearls of wisdom made my signature

Godspeed my fellow BNUT.

He will be missed. I know people cannot live forever but the older I get the more I hate saying goodbye.
I know he loved his wife and it always makes me happy to see a truly happily married man. It's a real joy to talk to a man in love

In the big picture of things...he wasn't really that old. But he did make me smile when he would add tidbits of Crystal into the conversation. He truly loved her.

 

[Brian Van Fleet]

Sad. He was always a positive presence here. He’ll be missed. Thanks for sharing Greg.

 

[Bonsai Nut]

Can we get hold of Mrs. Grim?

Crystal was the one who let me know about @GrimLore's passing.

"Ed was my husband. Ed used the handle GrimLore (Grimmy) and really enjoyed your forum. It fueled his passion to learn and experiment with bonsai. He made many friends and maybe a few adversaries, but really loved every minute."

If you need to get in touch with her, I have an email.
