Our friend here on TOTV, Virtual Geezer has passed away.
 

I posted this on the thread in which prayers were requested. I am starting a new thread because some folks didn't read it and are still carrying hope.. I have sad news for all of you who kept John in your prayers. John was a kind and gentle man and a brave one. He was known as Virtual Geezer on this site and his dream was to buy a home here in The Villages and to live out his days. That didn't happen. He has left this earthly home.


Here is the obituary.

Very sad. Way too young. He was a wonderful contributor on TOTV.

Thanks so much for posting this on a new thread. Someone mentioned he had passed while we were away and I was going to search for the obit but this makes it so much easier. I know he is certainly in a better place and had a wonderful and caring friend in you and many others here in TV.

Condolences to his family. I enjoyed his TOTV posts

Our condolences to his family & friends.

May he rest in peace.

Thanks, Gracie. :-(

Sad to hear that news, Graciegirl.

Sorry he's gone. He was a very nice gentleman.

RIP Virtual Geezer. I enjoyed reading your posts. Gracie, thank you for posting this information.

Rest in Peace.

My condolences to his family. Thanks for sharing Gracie.

Sorry to hear of his passing. I thought he was a year round resident because he once sent me a PM asking for a recommendation for a grass cutting business.

I never got to know him and don't recall any of his posts.

You could look them up and read some. Go here https://www.talkofthevillages.com/fo...archid=8468196 or if that doesn't work, go to Community at the top of the home page, go to Member List, and search the V's for Virtual Geezer. I think it's page 5 or so. Then you can click on Statistics and choose the "read all his posts" option. He was a very kind, helpful guy and a good poster.

Sorry to hear. May he rest in peace.
