T-mos "gone but not forgotten"

[Dukkit]

I'm going to send flowers to the family from all of us but I don't want to write from the steroid.com brothers so anyone have any ideas? Maybe just "the board" or something. Can anyone do an e-card we can all write something on and mail or send?

or just "from your friends and family at AR."

[gymnerd]

or just "from your friends and family at AR."

^^^that gets my vote.

I would definitely suggest "the board"... perhaps "the AR community" (don't know if you want to get that name involved either).

I wouldn't put anything about steroid.com though, smart decision. I honestly think in this time of grievance, it would devastate his family to have him associated with AAS use...

I will WU you some money out of respect if your interested. These forums... We are all a family.... This is truly devastating for us all... No matter how much we bicker and rant...... We need to always remember who and what we are...... And that is one BIG FAMILY

[marcus300]

This is so sad and for once I don't know what to say.

TMOS, was such a dedicated and motivated bodybuilder, Ive known him for many years and knowing this great man is dead as really upset me, he helped everyone and kept his cool at all times, he was probably the most active member on this site who's only reward was knowing he helped someone achieve their goals.

Its hard to say if drugs did take a part in his death but it sure looks like it from were i am sitting, which is very scary indeed because he pushed and was very passionate about cycling safely.

I can't express how sad this really is, Ive had many public and personal conversations with David and all I can say is he is and always will be a great guy and this is a huge loss in everyway.

I am in shock and upset, I know this is only the Internet but we all did have a relationship with him on a daily basis and this as touched my heart.

All the best big guy

[ninesecz]

This seems unreal! I am actually picking my jaw up off the floor! Board is gonna not seem as friendly anymore with Big being gone... now T-mos is gone! That is Horrible! Please accept my sincerest condolences! Please do me a favor "friend of T-mos" and please let his family know that he had another family right here that he helped out on a daily basis! Please allow me to say that I am very very sorry for your loss! I lost my GF @ 31 years old and it is never easy but it will get easier with time! Just like T-mos was, Stay Strong and just be there for each other! Nothing is more important than that!

[The Deuce]

FOR those of you who want to read the Obit... let me know.. I'll PM YOU THE LINK...

But out of respect for DAVID I will not post it in the OPEN... even though I know we all loved T-MOS

Dave and I had become very very close over the past 2 months.. well as close as you can get with someone over the internet... we both shared the same illness... severe depression... he helped me through mine as I am sure I played a role in helping him out....

And before people start talking... NO HE DID NOT... WOULD NOT... EVER... TAKE HIS OWN LIFE !! So even though he was depressed, suicide never would even be considered an option by him. (AS FAR AS I COULD TELL.)

He will be greatly missed, he was a good friend.. and a GREAT Inspiration to me.. HELL to all of us...


RIP DAVE aka -- T-MOS 1965-2009

["Maximus"]

Very sad news and such great loss.. my thoughts and prayers to his family. You will always remain a part of us brother.. rest in peace, t-mos!

[thai-lan]

i dont want to believe it!!!! what about some of you Mods check IPs of Tmos and friend of T-MOS ?? so then you could track the IPs and see if they were from the same state or whatever ......

I was in your shoes... Until I read the obituary. No need to drag it out. What his friend said was true. Same as the obituary. A friend. Someone apart of our family has been taken from us.

[DEE151]

how Big has not been on? he gives great advice to.

and to friend of T-MOS i just want to tell you thank you for taking your time to sign up and letting us know what happen.

[HORSE]

Guy's I have been speaking with his very good friend B on the phone and I am going to copy and print all of your kind responses, I'll have to edit out any mention of steroid's as his family was unaware of his use....I think it would mean a great deal to his son, his sister, close family and friends to see how loved he was and how much of an impact he has had on so many people....In one way or another I think he has touched each and everyone of our heart's....

Truly a great man with one of the biggest hearts of any man I have ever known, it was a privilege to be called his friend....


Admin thank you for allowing me to post, I really do appreciate it....HORSE

[strength_addict14]

Crazy, T-MOS gave me a lot of advice that I needed. He always did it will out any nonsense, just compassion and concern. He was a great man. Get some rest now T, you will be missed.

[BigBrown1234]

thank you...rip

[diesel405]

Rest in peace bro.......

[ghettoboyd]

t-mos was a real good man and a class act to say the least. the board will never be the same without his knowledge and good heart.......im just so shocked at this i cant quite prosess it yet......god bless you in the afterlife my friend....

[Hazard]

I can't even believe what I just read.....

I am incredibly shocked to say the least. He was such a good guy...... helped me out soo many times. Every now and again something like this happens and it sucks but this time with T-mos it hits harder. He meant so much to all of us and I really hope he knew that. I was hoping he'd goto the Atlantic city pro competition this september

Barbara - thank-you so much for taking the time to let us all know. His familly doesn't know me or 99% of us but please give them our condolences. He will truely be missed here.

I guess all thats left to say is R.I.P buddy..... we love you.

Love is an understatement. T-mos was the forum. A good man with a great heart. Helping the world one noobie at a time.... Kind of like superman..

[KatsMeow]

If anyone wants to post a quick memoir to his son describing what a great guy he was we would be more than happy to add it to the complied messages that we plan to send in his remembrance to his son.

Thanks guys

I'd love to.....

T-mos (david) was dedicated to the hobby we all love so much. The knowledge he posessed was unparalleled and the bodybuilding/weightlifting community will forever miss his presence. I didn't know David in person but I was hoping to finally meet him at the Atlantic City Pro competition this september. I was looking forward to meeting the man that helped so many people in our community. The best thing I could say about David though was that his knowledge wasn't limited to helping just the new guys. He helped all of us, from the new and inexperienced, to the people that have been weightlifting and bodybuilding for years on end. T-mos, Superman, David..... Your legacy and the knowledge you passed to us shall live on forever. We love you man.....

~Haz~

[Bio-boosted]

So sorry to hear this terrible news guys.

I'm only the new kid here, but it was always plain how close many of you are here & how important T-MOS was to the board, and his many good friends.
My thoughts are with you all. His friends and his family.

And to Barbara, thank you for talking to everybody here at this difficult time.

RIP big guy.

[RangersLTW]

Say it would be a honor to look up to a great man with your head stretched high and wish such greatness for oneself

[fitluv09]

i'm still a newbie here.. but this is so sad in any situation. my condolences to your family and friends, david.

[BuffThaStuff]

This is just all to surreal right now. I've known him as a poster since his SMAN12-B days. RIP brotha.

[Western Man]

Although I am relatively new here and have only been acquanted with T-mos through several messages and PMs, let me say that he went out of his way to answer my questions; and he did so without being condescending towards a new guy who knew nothing about AAS. Although my questions had been covered a million times by him and others he took time out of his day to thoroughly answer me, not with terse one liners you'd expect from someone you didn't know, but with thoughtful words you'd expect from a friend.

He was the first person to welcome me here, and the PMs we exchanged manifested his selflessness, his courtesy, and his kindness.

[friend of T-MOS]

I want to thank you all for taking the time to remember David. I can't say it enough but he LOVED being on this board and honestly I couldn't understand why (until today that is) You all have showed me what a wonderful family he had here. He cared about all of you. I wish you could see his face when he was typing his replys to posts. There would be times when he would be laughing his ass off to posts in his silly "love thread", sorry pronetorage! Then there would be times he would make me look at countless women and make me say over and over that the brunettes he liked were HOTT!! Then there was JBM...you have no idea how impressed he was in your ability to find all the pics of women you were able to come up with. He would wake up in the middle of the night and get this stupid chuckle how "his boy" was hard at work while he slept. And lastly i have to bring up how pissed/frustrated he would get when someone too young was on the board insisting they were ready for steroids (that was always interesting to watch!) You may not of realized but David suffered from severe depression. You all helped him in ways you could never imagine. Watching over this board and giving advice whenever needed was better than any medicine ever prescribed him. He truely was a wonderful person. What you all saw on here didn't even come close to the man he was.

Immortal Soldier....if I can ask a favor of you. I love the avatar you posted today. I think it only fitting that it be switched over to Davids'. Would that be alright? Its a wonderful way to honor him and I know he would love it!

Now to give you all a better idea of what happened.....David passed away sometime after 2am on Friday morning. He was lying peacefully in bed, tv on, laptop at his side and all 3 of his animals were with him. The autopsy concluded he died of a heart attack....his arteries were all severly damaged. Again, thank you all for your love and support. Scott (Horse) you've been a true friend to David and today I saw why he was so honored to call you his brother. Thank you for everything!

A quick note to all of you....
Please take care of yourself and when it comes to steroids.....please be extremely careful and be aware of your body and what its telling you while on them.

Now to give you all a better idea of what happened.....David passed away sometime after 2am on Friday morning.(he was texting up until that time) his girlfriend was at the beach and got concerned when she couldn't get a hold of him. His store manager was the one to find him. He was lying peacefully in bed, tv on, laptop at his side and all 3 of his animals were with him. The autopsy concluded he died of a heart attack....his arteries were all severly damaged. Everyone was noticing how short of breath he was all the time and he was always sweating. I know thru reading on the forums he stopped taking whatever it was he was taking 4 days before he passed...I only wish he would of went to the doctors and then maybe he would be here today. I miss him so much and still cant believe hes' gone. Again, thank you all for your love and support.

He was a star and will always be remembered.

He worked his ass off on this board and imo this thread deserves to be a sticky to always remember him...

I think this would be a great idea as well.

You might have to talk to *Admin* about changing his avatar though (if admin can even do that??).. unless you know his password..

Thanks for the update Barbara!

Barbara I just wanted to take a second and commend you for what you have done over these last two day's....Not many people that are going through what you are would have thought or had the courage to come on here explain what happened to him....You have done a great service to him and to all of his friends here....It is a true testament of ya'lls friendship and show's how well you truly knew David that you came here and did this for him and us his friends....


You have my number and are more than welcome to call me anytime if you need anything....Seeing how well you knew David and how much you loved and cared for him has brought me to consider you a friend....I will have the details on the donations together by tomorrow and all of the personal messages and thank you letter's for David finished and sent early next week....


Stay strong and know that we are here for you should you need anything.... Thank you for being such a good friend to my brother David, he was lucky to have such a caring person as you in his life....

Much Love and Respect....Scott/HORSE
