Just sent a donation at the web site above via paypal. Didn't allow me to ID in memoriam but I contacted them via an email (contact us) and told them the donation was in memory of Jon LaFalce.

Hate that his entire (scant) 11-month retirement was spend battling AML. Makes me sad. And what a great charity to donate to.

If I remember correctly, Jon retired because he was having health issues. I don't know why I wasn't able to find his obit before this. Maybe it was not printed in the newspaper. He didn't like the Flint Journal, (he called it the "flint urinal"), so maybe it was his choice to not have it published.

Rest in Peace Jon.. May you have enjoyed the destruction of the Buckeyes from the ultimate press box seats!Comment

Liney, I had been looking too. Now I realize I was searching by Jon and not Jonathan. Still seems like the last name would have gotten some hits. There’s a nice pic of him with Doc Hodgman at one of the tailgates in the tribute section of the obit.
Jon was a great guy. Always happy.Comment

Could you put a sticky on Jon's thread so it doesn't sink to the bottom?

I'm really going to regret this, but AlabamAlum is getting timed out when he tries to log in. Can one of you mensa genius mods check and see if he still has access or if there is something otherwise preventing him from logging in?Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

If he's trying to log in on his phone something has gone screwy the past few days. Both Wiz and I can't even view the forum on our phones anymore. The site simply doesn't load beyond the Welcome page.Comment

Same ...... it's been going on now for the last 18h. If I don't have a wifi connection on my Android (Samsung) phone, the site doesn't open. I'm going to PM Deb now.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off.

AA said he couldn't get on through phone, PC or tablet. As of yesterday. It definitely sounds like a server issue.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

He can log in on any device or through incognito. It’s like his IPs are banned or something.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

I PM'ed Deb on this early yesterday and have not heard from her. The situation remains the same on my Samsung Android phone. Using data alone on my phone does not allow me to open the Detroit Lions web page. WIth wifi turned on I can open the website and log in as usual. My PC is not affected but it's using a wireless internet connection, not data.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off.
