  1. A message from Alana regarding the memorial services:

    To All my and Robby's friends attending his services: On Saturday at the celebration/party after the memorial we will be celebrating Robby's life. I'd like all skydivers to wear a skydive t-shirt of some sort - I'd like us to represent the sport and the thing that made Robby the happiest. You were his family, he'd be proud. Thank you all for being there for me and Robby.

    And if you can't make it, crack a beer and toast to him.

    God I miss him
    Alana

    May the blue skies be clear with a calm breeze crossing your smiling face. May new records be set and championships be won. May all of us hold ourselves to the high standards and levels of achievement you demonstrated, now for others to follow.

  2. No need to scan it....I have the original. For those who don't get Parachutist or just want a copy, here you may have it. I can only upload a low-res jpg though.

    Designing JP's tribute was another tough one, just like Shannon's, but I was honored to do it. I'm sorry the foam party picture didn't make it in. That was one photo I did not have of the many I received.

    Blue skies JP, everyone misses you. Byron hasn't been the same. We miss seeing you around the dz, and I miss my hugs from you!

    love, Neets

  3. Sadly, I would be honored to design JP's page. I'm the one who designed Shannon's and I remember JP's quote too. So terribly sad it became a reality.

    I was so very proud to have been on Shannon's memorial page. If I ever have to get one, make sure she's on mine.



    love and hugs to all ~Anita

  6. To all,
    I have volunteered to help create Cliff’s memorial page for Parachutist magazine.
    Kevin “Tall Guy” may have already submitted payment for the spread for Tommy D and Cliff. If we want the memorial spread to be in the March issue then I need to submit artwork by the end of this month. My dilemma is…I have no photos of Cliff!

    I need your help!!! Can anyone provide me high-resolution digital photos of Cliff? Freefly shots, ground, around friends, etc......ANYTHING!

    I didn’t know Cliff well, so any stories, words, ideas you would like to share with me would be helpful too.

    Please send anything you have a.s.a.p. to: [email protected]. Be sure to mail me Full resolution print worthy photos (200dpi - 300dpi).

    Thanks for your help!

    Peace & love

    Neets :)

  7. Tommy D was definitely looking over us last night. On my way home I saw the biggest shooting star ever! I'm talking this streak of light was so huge and close to Earth's atmosphere, it was amazing!!!! All I could think of ... it had to be him. A great way to say good night to last night's tribute.

    We miss you Tom! You will be amongst us always.

    Love to all.

  9. Some pictures from a cold but fun afternoon wakeboarding the canals of Discovery Bay around Thanksgiving. Tommy D was so cold from the freezing water he literally turned blue! He couldn't get enough though, and went for it twice!! We all had such a good time.

  10. I’m still trying to register all of what has happened over this last weekend!

    Cliff, I didn’t know you well, but it was always nice to see you and fly with you. The last time I had the pleasure of talking to you and skydive with you was at the 06 Byron Boogie. Now, I can’t believe you are gone too. Unbelievable!!

    Thank you for all the fun skydives. My thoughts are with you, your friends and family. You will be sorely missed!

    Eternally blue skies. Fly Free with the angels.

  11. I can’t believe it’s true - another beautiful soul gone. My heart is so heavy. I am going to miss you Tommy D. You always helped me see the bright side of things. Thank you for always sharing and being such a giving and caring person. Your spirit will be greatly missed around B-town! Everyone loved you and I will never forget you. I still have pictures of you on my camera from a couple of weekends ago!!!

    Eternally blue skies my friend. Fly free with the angels.

    Cumulus and Shannon will definitely be happy to see you.

    PS: I can just hear you over the intercom too, singing “B double E double R U N. Beer run!”

  21. Awe man, it's starting to register looking at all these pictures of her. Truly overwhelming. I can't believe it.

    Thank you Shannon for being a friend, for always making me laugh, for being as true as you are, for all the skydives we had together, and for everything else I'm forgetting to mention.

    My sympathy and condolences to her family, all her friends, and especially Bob. My thoughts are with you. I am so sorry.

    I will miss you and never forget you Shannon.
