The Doll Forum

That is quite devasting news. Bye, bye Wetsuit

I have seen Wetsuit posting here quite a lot lately and thought he would be ok.I also hoped to meet him in person in June. I did not know he decided to not to talk about how bad his situation really is; maybe I would have contacted him, if only for a last PM. Now it is too late.

It is very sad that he has to part from this world before he has been able to do everything he wanted to do. I always admired his artwork on his teddy babes and his photos, and also he has always been a friendly and helpful poster both here and at the UK forum.
Now I will try to get some comfort by hugging my doll and thinking about him. My condolences to his family and friends, I hope it helps them handling the grief that they know people around the world feel with then.

He will be missed. Let us make sure he lives on in our memories.

I am sorry to hear this. I didn't know him but I have read his posts in the past with pleasure. My condolences to his friends and family.

It was only days ago I had PM'd Jo about his work restoring Banjoli mandolins, he had sent some pics of his latest restorations and he seemed to be in good spirits given such a difficult situation and now this news. He was amongst the first to welcome me to TDF and always offered a kind word and encouragement whether in post or chat. I will miss him greatly, although we never met in person we did occasionally in chat see each other via our webcams and enjoyed discussing our love for Teddy Babes and music. He was quite the musician, I held the man in high regard, I truly hope he is at peace. My Deepest condolences go out to his Family and Friends. Rest my Friend, Rest.

I always had Wetsuit on my mind, after hearing his diagnosis. Of course I was in denial, hoping he would beat it. This is so painful.

My sympathies to his Family and Friends.

He will be sorely missed.

May he rest in Peace.

My condolences to Jo's family and relatives.

He'll be dearly missed.

Rest in Peace, Jo.

As the wise Gandalf would say:

~ And then you see it, white shores... And beyond, a far green country, under a swift sunrise. ~

This is very sad news. Wetsuit was instrumental in the arrival of my TBDs and was the first doll owner I met when I went to pick up Lois last year. He will be sadly missed by all those who knew him.

My condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace.

My condolences to Wetsuit's family. He has many friends here on the forum.

RIP Jo.

Enjoy each day as we all have a limited amount of time here.

Heart-felt condolences. Time passes so quickly enough, my best wishes to his loved one's...

May God give his family and friends strength in these times of sorrow.
My prayers go out to them.

Farewell Jo

Just damn.

Exactly what I was going to say, Yoube_Bosley. Damn. Sometimes life just ain't fair.

His absence from the forums will be deeply felt, but his memory well live on in our hearts.
