I hope you don't mind me putting this pic up so everyone can see John in happier times.



John is on the right
I HATE TO INCLUDE THE WORD NASTY< BUT THAT IS PART OF BEING A WINNING FOOTBALL TEAM.

RIP Weeze. He was always there to keep the game day chat room alive and at times we were the only 2 people in the room. This was the first season I stopped checking out the chat room.  :'(

Sad news. May John rest in peace. Drake what you and your wife did in the Jewish tradition is a HUGE mitzvah. A good deed times 10. Bless you and your wife for doing it.

Even though we all knew this was inevitable it's extremely sad to hear this news. I'll miss the Weeze. John's posts here were often times insightful, and often times prickly, but I loved them all just the same. No one could ever doubt his love of the Giants.  Quite a while back he and I traded a bunch of emails, and even talked on the phone once or twice, he always made me smile. And I also remember him once giving me holy hell for not stopping by when I was visiting an old friend who lives just a few miles from Casa de Weeze. I should have made the time. I will miss his cutting wit and his incredible love of the NY Giants.

Drake, thank you to you and your wife for being there for him in his final days. That is the very definition of true friendship. I'm sorry for your loss.

Rest easy Weeze. So sad to hear. Thanks for sharing Drake

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.

A tru blu fan, and friend, by any other measure 💙.

Another of our original core members has finally moved on to a better place, reunited with the original "inimitable one," himself, the legendary Gabes, Mojo40, Christopher Allen and so many of our beloved friends from this forum.

God bless you, Drake and your wife, for being there for Jon in his final days. Weeze has always been our lovable character here, and was among the first folks I struck a friendship with when I originally joined the old BBWC board.

It pains me to learn the "evil C-word" has taken yet another life from us, and I continue to pray for the date to come when cancer can and will be defeated.

Rest in peace now, old pal Jon (forever "The Weeze")

Sad to hear about Weeze. He was always someone here who never took this stuff too seriously. He will be missed.

Very sad news. May his memory be a blessing.

RIP Weeze.

I remember meeting Weeze for the first time in Albany at a Giants training camp and immediately took a liking to him. He had that personality that could feel at home in his presence. And Drake what a great friend and a great human being. You are to be commended.  =D>  =D>  =D>  =D>
