NGT: WEEZE HAS PASSED

LAST NIGHT, while in his sleep, John Woessner, aka WEEZE passed peacefully in his sleep, from extreme small cell cancer, my wife and I have been here with him for a month or so, taking care of him, keeping him as painfree as possible

We watched football together yesterday, with him dozing and taking his meds.

I'm so sad that he had to suffer so much. He was a good man. You're a good friend Drake. He was blessed to have you and your wife to help him transition.
Godspeed Weeze.

Horrible disease but to watch football and die peacefully in sleep.  God bless him and you and your wife.

Sorry for your loss Drake. R.I.P. John. It was a pleasure that I got the chance to meet you.

This is sad news.  RIP my friend.

For those who may have missed it, John shared with us his grim prognosis (with his usual grade and class):

Drake: May God bless his immortal soul (and bless you and your wife for what you did). Bob
If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!

This is heartbreaking.

RIP WEEZER

God bless his soul, his family and his friends.

Thank you for sharing Drake.

From Simms to Eli (with an assist from Hoss) our Super Bowl Quarterbacks. Great defense and clutch QB performances...NY Giants Championship football.

I have an old profile still floating around: andrew_nyg....I am one and the same!

Oh wow. He was a wonderful poster.

Prayers for his family and friends.

Oh wow. So sad. I really enjoyed his personality. Fun. RIP Weezy.

Incredibly sad news. I remember reading Weeze's posts all the way back on the old MOTM forum, and he always struck me as an incredibly kind gentleman, much like Gabe, Bob from PA and Dumpster Dan.

Two other things that struck me while reading this:

1. We should all hope to demonstrate the same grace and courage as Weeze
2. We should all hope to have someone as selfless as Drake in our lives.

RIP Weeze 
 
Your humor, laughter and kindness will always be remembered.

You are often thought of and your name comes up regularly when we gather around and play the Ms. PacMan machine you sent us

You will be missed. 

A solid man, great giant fan and friend



Drake - I am really glad to hear you were with him...

Thanks for posting this Drake. Some of us, who got to know and meet John, just know what a wonderful person he truly was, and for  you and your  wife, God Bless You both for showing people what a true friend is.

On a personal note, John will now be with the Golden Hoofer, watching Giants games together. They both will always watch over you and only you know what I mean.
I HATE TO INCLUDE THE WORD NASTY< BUT THAT IS PART OF BEING A WINNING FOOTBALL TEAM.
