RIP Gonzo

[Bugeater]

Passed away on Thursday. Apparently complications with colitis. Please keep his son, Hunter, in your thoughts.

[KCUnited]

Damn

Condolences to his friends and family both here and outside of CP

RIP

[Easy 6]

WHAT?

That guy was younger than me

SHIT!

[TrebMaxx]

RIP Gonzo.

[Bugeater]

WHAT?

That guy was younger than me

SHIT!I lived 15 minutes away from him for years and only managed to hang out with him one damn time.

[Frazod]

Laura posted funeral details on Facebook.

RIP

[HayWire]

Passed away on Thursday. I have no other details at this time. Will post as soon as any are available.

Fuck fuck fucking fuck.

RIP

I know I've turned into a whiny bitch lately but I'm really tired of these threads

To all my CP friends, please get a check up. Do something.

Don't become a random internet thread.

RIP Gonzo

[Monty]

RIP Gonzo. Good dude. :toast:

[scho63]

These last few years we are losing too many great posters way too young.

RIP Gonzo

[stumppy]

RIP man.

[Easy 6]

I lived 15 minutes away from him for years and only managed to hang out with him one damn time.

Sorry to hear that, he always struck me as a super nice guy

As Bearcat pro says, the increasing rate of these types of threads around here is just sickening

RIP, Gonzo

[LiveSteam]

RIP.
Way to young.

[New World Order]

That’s awful. Seemed like a nice guy. How old was he?

[LiveSteam]

Mid 40s I believe.

[Bugeater]

Sorry to hear that, he always struck me as a super nice guy

RIP, GonzoHe was a good dude, someone you could sit down and immediately be comfortable with. Very engaging in person, even more so than on here. Just a damn shame.

[crazycoffey]

I’ve only known him through here, lots of fun bs late night talking, joking and laughing. Really one of the guys I will now regret not meeting. Lost touch when he left here. Not sure of much else other the little laura shared with Facebook. Too damn young.

[Deberg_1990]

Wow. RIP...

[Dante84]

Fuck, man.

[digger]

RIP Gonzo, gone too soon...

[TLO]

RIP :(

[burt]

Hits me right in the feels. RIP Gonz! Prayers sent for Hunter!

[tredadda]

Wow! RIP.

[Halfcan]

Gonzo was always one of my favorite posters. He was a class act and will be missed.

Rest in Peace, my friend.

[The Franchise]

God damn, man. He was young too. RIP to a good dude.

[Valiant]

That sucks. Prayers to his family. Seems a lot of older posters are going. Not counting all the ones who quit before mahomes.

Makes you think of your own mortality and when you might go.

Never to post again.

[PHOG]

RIP Gonzo, prayers sent to Hunter and family.

[Bwana]

Well that just sucks, he was a really good guy and will be missed.


RIP

[TLO]

Was just looking back and didn't realize he hadn't been around the board for a couple years. I remember talking with him about his son.. I hope the family is in a place to take care of expenses? If not, I'd help out with whatever I could.

[Coochie liquor]

So sad. Rest in Paradise, Gonzo.

[TLO]

**** **** ****ing ****.

RIP

RIP Gonzo

I haven't been around nearly as long as some of the old timers of this board, but being around since 2012 or so I've basically grown up here. Spent the better part of my 20s and now into my 30s around here. These threads always give me a knot in my stomach.

CP is like a family. I've seen and heard the stories of people from this site coming together for people in their times of need. I love all of you guys and gals. Whether we just share the love of the Chiefs, chatting in threads or the discord, or we've gotten to know one another on a more personal level.

[BryanBusby]

Damn man. Damn.

RIP

[KCFalcon59]

Damn. RIP Gonzo.

[big nasty kcnut]

RIP Gonzo

[Buehler445]

Goddamn it.

He was far too young.

He was IRL kind to me when I was a straight n00b.

RIP friend. Best wishes to the family. I think his son would be in his early teens?

[Rasputin]

Laura posted funeral details on Facebook.

RIP

I miss Lumpy posting here.



RIP Gonzo :(

[excessive]

When you're not an everyday poster, you tend to get ignored on this site. Not with Gonzo. Real. Good. Dude. RIP.

[Sofa King]

Oh no! One of my all time favorites. Fuck this sucks.

[lewdog]

He was always great on here and sounded like a great father. He’d tell me stories about raising his son.

Just too damn young. So sad.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Rip. Gone too young

[burt]

Folks..sadly, this is the saddest reason to attend the CP Get together. Patteau's passing was why I am organizing it. Don't let another CP'er pass with out meeting them. VERY few of you can put my face to my name, yet I just missed the grim reaper last year. Same with Scho. I will have a pic of our memorial thread at a table with a shot of tequila for lost comrades. I hate it that I never met Gonz face to face.

[scho63]

Mid 40s??? Holy shit that sucks.

[Kiimo]

Man I have a good friend with colitis problems and is in and out of the hospital a lot.


I didn't realize people actually die from it that young

[lewdog]

It usually doesn’t.

That makes this all the more tragic.

[Dartgod]

Damn, another one bites the dust. This really sucks.

RIP Gonzo!

[Titty Meat]

Wtf I was just thinking about him the other day. He was a great person.

[MeaTy The Pimp]

Sad to hear. I have only had very brief interactions with him, but overall seemed like a pretty chill dude.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Damn! Great guy, RIP

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

I was wondering if DenverChief is still with us. He hasn't posted in forever,

[Pants]

Jesus. He seemed like such a great freaking dude. Just always so nice to everyone and so level headed. RIP, Gonzo. You will be missed. :(

He had like 3 sons, didn't he?

[Marcellus]

WTF? Holy shit.

RIP.

Man I was not expecting this when I came to CP today.

[bringbackmarty]

So sad, my condolences to his family.

[ModSocks]

Damn, fuck that sucks. R.I.P to a true CP OG.

Damn man.

[KC Dan]

RIP Gonzo... no more this year dammit.

[KChiefs1]

Holy Shit.

We are losing a lot of CPers lately.

RIP Gonzo.

[Mosbonian]

**** **** ****ing ****.

RIP

To all my CP friends, please get a check up. Do something.

This....a check up 4 years ago probably kept me from being a statistic and a CP thread.

Too many of the good guys being lost. I know that is part of the cycle of life, but it still sucks, especially when you have "known" people on here for 20 some odd years.

Some days I almost dread coming in here....too many RIP threads.

RIP Gonzo..

[Bugeater]

Jesus. He seemed like such a great freaking dude. Just always so nice to everyone and so level headed. RIP, Gonzo. You will be missed. :(

He had like 3 sons, didn't he?No, just the one. Unless you count his dogs, then it would indeed be 3.

[ChiTown]

Gawdamn it. I was just thinking about him last week. I meant to ask Bug if he had spoken to him lately. One the absolute best on this site. This one really hurts.


RIP, my Brother!

[MMXcalibur]

This past year has been a nightmare when it comes to losing longtime posters.
Must be a ChiefsPlanet meet-up in heaven.

RIP

[Rain Man]

Sorry to hear about this. He was a winner in my book.

[Pablo]

Oh man that is awful. RIP brother

Same or maybe help start a college fund for his kid when hes old enough. Whatever it may be I'd chip in I'm sure many on here would.

[vailpass]

Full respect.

[Raiderhater]

I do not recall any kind of serious interaction with him but, I’ve seen enough of his posts to have nothing but a positive perception of him. And it looks like he was only a few years older than I am. Fuck, I’m not even old. So my condolences to his friends and family and may be RIP.

Mostly I just want to echo what several others have said; these threads have been coming at a disturbing rate over the past couple of years and need to stop. I realize, however the age demographic of this place when it started and realize this trend is likely to keep trickling on. :(

[Chiefaholic]

Shit... I don't post every day, but there aren't many days that go by that I don't catch up on Chiefs news and such here. I've read many of the posts here for 20+ years, and Gonzo was one of my favorites. RIP old friend....

You can get sepsis from it. Which is an infection of the blood. Sepsis is dangerous shit.

RIP Gonzo

[Frazod]

RIP Gonzo

One of my friends died of something similar. Developed some sort of nasty infection. She did everything right - went to the doctor immediately, who then admitted her to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago. She was getting the best care from the best doctors at the best hospital in the area, and in the end none of it counted for shit. Went from perfectly fine to stone dead in less than two weeks. She was in her early 40s.

When your number's up, it's up.

[kccrow]

RIP Gonzo. Damn, makes me think I need to start taking a closer look at my own health. We're about the same age.

[morphius]

Damn, that is not right. Too many you jackballs must have said that all you want is one chiefs Superbowl in your lifetime and you could go happy. Rip Gonzo.

We are all getting old whether we want to admit it or not. I think I've been posting here nearly 18 years now.

[FAX]

Good Lord.

This is tragic news.

Mr. Gonzo will be sorely missed.

To be honest, these sort of thread topics have grown lamentable in more ways than one.

Exercise and eat more vegetables, Planeteers. There is a limit to the amount of depression I can handle.

Meanwhile, may the Great Spirit welcome Mr. Gonzo with open arms. Your work is done.

Why is it that, even though I've never met the person in real life, nor can even remember any specific interaction here on CP, that I feel like I lost a family member.....It so crazy the "bond" that you have with posters here, for no other reason than we share a common bond by liking the Chiefs.....good, bad, or otherwise, we're all part of one big dysfunctional family, and it sucks to lose such an integral part of that family.

RIP Gonzo

[Prison Bitch]

One thing some of us point out in these threads: our Planeteers got to see the Chiefs win the big one. It’s a small consolation compared to life obv,but the Chiefs brought us here and it’s awesome our departed got to celebrate it with all of us.

RIP Gonzo.

It’s the thing that unites us all to be here - our love for the Chiefs. You are all crazy, mentally unhealthy SOB’s, but I love you all like Family. We’ve shared our ups and downs and many of our life experiences via this Message Board through the years. The births, the weddings, the job promotions, the firings, the divorces and unfortunately the deaths. This site and the people here hold a special place in my heart. I never met Gonzo in person, nor any other CP member, but losing anyone from our Community hurts just the same.

Let’s stay healthy, folks. I don’t want to see another one of these threads for a long while

He could make you laugh and was always kind. One of those guys you want to tell his parents that they raised a gentleman.

Something fun to do, go through your reps and enjoy past reps. Had some good (for fun) battles over arcade games and forum games with him over the years so I have over 100 reps received from him to read through. Some hilarious stuff in there. Add in hijinks like "Fisty McTatt" and it's a gold mine.

My sack... Lick it!

Of course y ou know I can't ban that asswipe eric until he really screws up... Let me know when he does and I will drop my giant, throbbing ban-hammer, k?

Llamas are awesome.

I don't think Fisher would be too bad. I think he'd get them winning again and he's known for drafting QB's on occasion. We weren't fighting, it was a real debate, (which is rare for me on here, you know)

That's really ghey. It's almost can I has Chzburger ghey.


yeah, yeah... That's before i really knew you so cut me some slack, bitch.

Hootie is such a ****ing womanizing loser. He's like GoChiefs on crack.

I love repping myself whilst thinking of you....

Thats my boy, my turkey and my new 10 gauge.

SCROTUM!

Mr.Flopnuts - also entertaining
BuckingKaeding - so i can explain to him why SD is full of queers. and they all play for the chargers
Gonzo - so i can lie about me and lumpy...

[DaFace]

Did he used to go by another moniker?

I feel kind of ashamed but I have no idea who "Gonzo" is.

Nope. Well, I guess he was GoGonzo when he first signed up and tried out The Great Gonzo for a month, but he settled on Gonzo pretty quickly.

I think he kinda sorta fit in the gap of your hiatus. Started getting more active in 2009ish and kind of faded maybe 2018ish.

[Perineum Ripper]

I’m not sure what year it was, but I hadn’t been here long. Gonzo posted about his son and having some sort of walk for him. I sent money and got in touch with Gonzo saying I would come up and walk with him and his son. Things didn’t work out and I wasn’t able to make it, stuff with deployment, but I forgot to text him letting him know I wouldn’t be up. Gonzo reached out to make sure I was ok, and that stuck with me. Dude didn’t know me, but still made sure everything was ok, and seeing he passed away hurts quite a bit.

So many CP members have been passing away or having serious health issues. It really makes you think about your own mortality. This is why we have sports and sports discussions. To forget about it for a little while.

Gonzo was a good one. A great one.

[lewdog]

I go to the doctor every year and ask for a urine analysis and lipid panel. It's covered so why the fuck not!

Do the simple things men. These two things can catch a lot of shit early. These two simple things. You wouldn't believe how many people are walking around with high cholesterol because they won't get a simple screening.

Preventative medicine is covered by most insurance plans 100%. Use it!

[Lumpy]

Just wanted to hop on here and thank everyone who kept Jason’s (Gonzo’s) family and our son, Hunter, in your thoughts and prayers. We all said our goodbyes to him yesterday at his memorial. With our son having autism though, he doesn’t quite understand death and he doesn’t acknowledge his father is gone. I did, however, walk with him up to Jason’s ashes after the memorial and asked him to say “goodbye, I love you, dad” and I broke down in tears when he said it.

From what his mom told me, he was sick for some time and his doctor had diagnosed him with a thyroid problem and put him on meds. Sadly, that wasn’t the case and apparently he was slowly bleeding internally for some time. I was originally told by his dad that it was complications due to colitis and I assume that the bleeding was related. Regardless, Jason’s death was a devastating shock to all of us. The saddest part is that he was a few hours away at his parent’s lake house when this happened and I wasn’t notified so that Hunter could tell his dad goodbye.

With Jason’s death, it made me come to the realization that so many of us take our health for granted, as well as those that we love. If there’s something that I can suggest to all of you, it’s this... take care of yourselves and please get a second opinion if you still don’t feel well. Furthermore, please set aside your differences when it comes to people in your past. Especially if you have a child or children with them.

Again, I am very thankful to all of you who remembered Gonzo the way that he should be remembered on this board. Peace and hugs to all of you.

With Jason’s death, it made me come to the realization that so many of us take our health for granted, as well as those that we love. If there’s something that I can suggest to all of you, it’s this... take care of yourselves and please get a second opinion if you still don’t feel well. Furthermore, please set aside your differences when it comes to people in your past. Especially if you have a child or children with them.



Again, I am very thankful to all of you who remembered Gonzo the way that he should be remembered on this board. Peace and hugs to all of you.Condolences. Thanks for posting.

[Mr. Kotter]

RIP, Gonzo.

There was a lot of fun in those Survivor and late night threads. Rest peacefully Gonzo and look up Uncle Jerry, he'll take ya hunting.

Are you serious?! Damn. RIP Bro.

The amount of people older than you never increases... live long, love hard, and prosper everyone.

Just wanted to hop on here and thank everyone who kept Jason’s (Gonzo’s) family and our son, Hunter, in your thoughts and prayers. We all said our goodbyes to him yesterday at his memorial. With our son having autism though, he doesn’t quite understand death and he doesn’t acknowledge his father is gone. I did, however, walk with him up to Jason’s ashes after the memorial and asked him to say “goodbye, I love you, dad” and I broke down in tears when he said it.

From what his mom told me, he was sick for some time and his doctor had diagnosed him with a thyroid problem and put him on meds. Sadly, that wasn’t the case and apparently he was slowly bleeding internally for some time. I was originally told by his dad that it was complications due to colitis and I assume that the bleeding was related. Regardless, Jason’s death was a devastating shock to all of us. The saddest part is that he was a few hours away at his parent’s lake house when this happened and I wasn’t notified so that Hunter could tell his dad goodbye.

I don’t know quite what to say. I’m sorry for the loss. Thanks for stopping by.

Well said. You sure know how to hammer those heart strings.

Best to you and Hunter. I guess if I knew you split I forgot it.

Best to you and yours. Gonzo was the goods.

[Mr. Plow]

Wearing out on this stuff. Had some good conversations with Gonzo over the years. RIP.






If everyone else could just not die in the next 12-18 months I would appreciate it.

[TimBone]

RIP.

Jesus Christ, man. Every time I pop in here, someone has passed.

[R8RFAN]

sad, Rest easy ol buddy

[Fritz88]

Gonzo was one of the guys that made this place much more fun back in the day. Easygoing and funny as hell.

My condolences to his loved ones.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

This is so sad. I’m one of the OGs on this board going back to the KC Star days and Gonzo and I used to chat it up when he joined and have a lot of fun. He was so kind and genuine. God bless and prayers to all. Devastating.
