That sucks. I've always told people that the community on the GRM board is like no other. It seems odd to miss someone you've never met, but chatting with them for a decade leaves an impression. Cancer sucks.

Sounds like he was an awesome guy! Condolences to his family as well as Toyman, wbjones and the others who knew him personally . I'll raise an impact gun in his honor as I wage jihad against subframe bushings this weekend.

A main staple of this forum, an unrivaled source of knowledge and humor, undoubtedly my best friend I've never met.

Go easy on them up there good buddy (at least for a little while )

As heart breaking as it is to find out about, this is so true. At least now a community he was a part of has the opportunity to each pay tribute to him in their own individual way. I may not be able to wrench in his honor this weekend, but this will be some extra motivation to get the garage to a state where I can do so next weekend.

Always tough when someone so well liked, respected, and cared for passes. I believe that he is now helping those who have passed before him, to build, race and modify those "heavenly hotrods". We will see him again. Amen.

Sad to lose someone like that, but good to hear that, in his final day on Earth, he was still doing the stuff he liked.

For those of you who were close to him and his family - let us know if there's anything we can collectively do for them or to honor him.

This sucks. Curmudgeon, if you're listening - you'll be missed.

I'm sad today. You never know when it is the last time you'll see or hear from someone, until it is.

Be kind to one another. Never hesitate to tell those who are important to you in your life that you value their love, and their friendship.

"I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up DOES rejoice. But still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone. I guess I just miss my friend." -Red

Met him at the challenge many years ago. Can't claim to know him other than through his presence here, but I will miss him nonetheless. RIP Jensenman.
