R.I.P Big Fame One...

[powfo]

I know there's a x number page thread in the General, but he deserves his own thread in the Northwest Forum because this is where he is actually from.

R.I. P BFO.

This guy was like a big younger brother. I'll never forget that it was me, Chris & Viet that got together at BFO's crib back in 2002 to plan thevery 1st NT Seattle Summit. It was Big Fame that travelled to other NT summits out of state and decided that this could be done in our very own backyard beingthe true Seattleite that he is.
Jake and I came from the same H.S. and grew up in the Greenwood/Greenlake area. Our jobs are just a few blocks from one another. I would bump into him aroundBallard and always made time to chitchat while on the clock. We always talked about getting together to really catch up. I wish we still had that chance. Gonnamiss my brother.

R.I.P. BFO
You're still famous to me.

Man.... I never knew him but his posts always made me laugh. If memory serves me correctly didn't another diver die in the same area?

The PNW thread will never be the same. RIP

Id just like to personally thank all of the local NTers that showed up Tuesday night.

It was great to see you all again, and a few of you for the first time. It was a hell of a party, just the way im sure Jake would have wanted it.
