Farewell, JSpaceman

If you've spent any time over at the WOXY.com message boards, you are without a doubt familiar with Sean "JSpaceman", one of the biggest posters and biggest supporters of the station. Sean also ran the excellent Kill Your Coworkers music blog.

Sadly, I just heard that Sean died yesterday when his apartment building caught on fire. While his neighbors were thankfully able to escape in time, Sean was not. He was 34 years old.

Although I didn't know Sean personally, I've read hundreds of his posts on the WOXY boards and I've been a regular reader of his blog. He, like hundreds of other WOXY-ites, was a part of my musical family. He will be missed.

Thank you for posting this Steve. Jspaceman was a giant on the Woxy boards.

It is surreal to many of us who only knew Sean through online discussions. How do you grieve someone you never met but knew more about than some colleagues?

If there is a way to act responsibly in the Internet world, then Jspaceman set a perfect example. Be respectful of others opinions, welcome newcomers, be devastatingly funny and know your stuff!
