I really shook my good Friend Kib has passed. I really dont know what to say. We had alot of great time together. He became my friend in 1995 when UConn began its quest to dominance. He introduced me to another site back then. We spent alot of time together at the American Legion in Norwalk havin a few belts. Kib could be found there every afternoon with the boys. He could drink me under under the table, lol as I can not hold it as well as him. What a character. Wit, charisma, and love of the UConn Womens BB team. Im so sorry. Tears are running down my face as I pray for him.
Mrs Kib is an angel. She was there along with Dana by his side making his life as peaceful and with love as they could. Funny thing about women, they take care of their men and Mrs Kib and Dana did that. Dana a great pianist and terrific violinist played his favorite songs until his last breath. Mrs Kib and I were at the American Legion ceremony this morning and Kib passed a half hour after she got home. He waited for his soul mate to get home. True Love. I salute you David Cole may you rest in peace.
God Bless you Kib
Go Huskies

So very sorry for your loss, Tony. I didn't know Kib (nor you, except through these boards). But any close friend of yours must have been one amazing person.

Thanks for posting that here Tony.
I would always go over to the handicap area where Kib watched the games and sit for a few minutes to chat.
So sad at his passing.

I remember reading Kibitzer's posts on another site and enjoyed his posts a great deal. One of the few posters I truly missed when I self banned myself from there. Rest in Peace, Kibitzer.

Very kind of you, DD, and thanks for this. Now I can put a face to a name. I'm pretty sure I passed by him, as I recognized other BYers chatting with someone over there. I regret not having made the gesture myself.

Yes, I relayed my sympathies in the thread on TOB. I mostly remember some of his slightly off-topic posts regarding his health and such, as much of his UConn posts were in threads that I skipped as a non-UConn fan. Always seemed to be entertaining. Also remember him for his service.
