Jahwomble. RIP

That’s awful news for his family. I never knew Ray but my thoughts are with you all at this devastating time.

As someone who has lost a brother with mental illness and suicide my heart goes out to you all. As a GP I find it unimaginable that people can sink to such depths of despair that the only option is to take your own life. I hop he is at peace now.

Rereading this it just all seems surreal. RIP

RIP. Must have been in a really tough place 🙁

Very sad news. Our condolences to the family and friends.

RIP

🙁

That’s terrible news, condolences to his family and friends.

RIP Jahwomble

Very sad news indeed. Thoughts to his family and friends. Rest in Peace.

Best wishes to the family – sounds trite but meant.

Poor fella.

This tragedy and several others I have encountered has made me realise just how awful depression must be to takes ones own life especially knowing you are leaving loved ones behind

Like many others I have in the past dismissed sufferers as needing a kick up the arse. This has brought it home again that it really is a very serious illness that needs far more understanding and research undertaken into the causes and treatment

RIP and may it enlighten others to the possible tragic consequences

I saw this the other day & didn’t really see the benefit of adding another condolence to the list.
I didn’t know Jahwomble, but have seen his posts frequently on here.

I just realised though that even though I don’t have particularly eloquent to say/write, it is something respectful that I should do….

It’s times like this that make you take stock of things.
My sincere condolences to Jahwomble’s family & friends.
I feel a Mint Sauce-esque cartoon based on Mother Nature, rolling fields, blue skies & fluffy clouds would be appropriate……
Strange thing, the internet………

RIP Jahwomble.

Condolences to his family.

Never knew him but never the less my condolences to all involved. Terribly sad.

stumpy, this seemed nice

for Ray. (caution, sad song content)

:o(

RIP Ray. This bought back some bad memories from earlier on this year when an old school friend of mine ended his life without leaving any clues as to why. Very sad news, and deepest sympathies go out to all his family and friends.

Sad news. A reality/perspective checker.

RIP Jahwomble. Hope you’re now at peace and enjoying some sweet trails in the sky.

Sad news. My thoughts and prayers are with all those connected, friends, family, whoever. Sad news.

therealhoops – yep, something like that…..

never knew him but my sympathies go out to the people who did, hopefully he’s riding some sweet singletrack somewhere

Absolutely terrible news. So sad to hear that. Condolences to family and friends.

There but for the grace of god…..

Very sad news. RIP.

He only posted a few days ago. Best wishes to his family and close friends. Puts some perspective into your life.

I keep coming back to this thread & find i have nothing to add that doesn’t sound trite.

I would like to add my condolences to to his family & friends.

2 things.

1/ is there anything practical we can do, a collection for a wreath maybe?

2/ Let’s leave the discussion about depression for another time.

Only knew the name from here but it is clear he was the light of so many peoples lives. Condolences to his family at this sad time..

How about a bench and a plaque on/ near his favourite trail?

Rest in peace jahwomble

Condolences to Liz and family

Blimey! What a shame to read this post. My thoughts are with his family and if we can do anything as a collective, then I am in.
Such a lot of you have helped me in my darkest times not so long ago and I thank you for that. A shame that we couldn’t have helped Jahwomble the same way.
RIP 😥

RIP Jahwomble

Condolences to his family & friends

RIP Jahwomble

Hope you are riding on a higher plain

Oh no!
He was one of my favourites, always had an amazing sense of humour and very humourous.

He lived very near us and I always thought that one day I’d bump into him on the trails.

All my thoughts to his wife and family at this sad time.

This is terrible news. The forum has lost one of its very best posters.

All the best fella. And I hope those left behind will find a way to deal with such a terrible loss.

🙁

so sad. r.i.p 🙁

I read this post after reading on another post that he’d made so many people laugh. What a terrible shame. My heart bleeds for his family x

I read this when it was first posted and only had two or three replies. AT the time I was staggered and didn’t feel I could write anything that would adequately describe what I felt. Several days on, I still can’t. I like Jahwomble, he seemed like a decent bloke and I think it’s a crying shame – quite literally, my missus was bawling her eyes out when she heard, and I was close. RIP, fella.

Rest in peace. Thoughts and condolences to his family.

My condolences to all jahwombles family and friends, I lost a brother in law in similar circumstances and know what it can do to a family. Remember the good times.

Just reading back over some of his posts – definitely one of the good guys.

condolences to all family and friends, never new him but enjoyed his input to the forum

bit gutted i never met him, but we had a fair few chats about music and bikes.

A very sad loss, condolences to his family.
