Re: TimberFloorAus RIP
 
Just heard the news myself.
Stunned isn't the word!
The good lord certainly takes the best for himself.

I can honestly say, that Steve was the nicest bloke that anyone could wish to meet. A real diamond amongst the rough. Funny, sincere, genuine and just an all round bloody decent bloke. Definitly one of the highlights of both mine and Carolines time in Aus.

Sadly missed but NEVER forgotten. RIP Steve.

Sending sincere condolences to Steve's family. In our thoughts.

I'm so sorry to read this news.

Steve was a great help to my family in our early days here. A true gent, and he'll be sorely missed.

Sincere Condolences to his family.

Such sad news :(

Thoughts are with Timbers family

Steve was a great character who livened up the forum with his no nonsense posts, even stirring up the odd revolution and Y o b r o exodus ;)

I didn't know him personally but he helped me out when I was in a difficult situation and for that I am grateful.

RIP Steve x

Very sad

I don't think we ever met but I certainly remember him from here some time ago.

I believe he also started posting again earlier this year.

RIP

Sad news, he was a great help to us 7 years ago when we were just starting out.

Timber was a genuine, kind and funny guy.

First time I had direct contact with Steve was in the chat room where I had to ask how many hands he had as his typing was so bloomin fast.

I soon realised what a funny bloke he was and how he liked to tongue-in-cheek stir the pot on occasions.

I started doing the devils advocate on him leaving some rather ludicrous one liner posts taking the total opposite view to him. He would respond asking me to justify my stupid viewpoint and I wouldn't answer which wound him right up. Then one day he replied saying it won't work any more as Soapy had told him what I was doing.

I guess I had my best insight into the man when I was doing Admin work for him on the YO. In that time I didn't agree with a few things that went down but I could always openly voice my opinion to Steve and discuss stuff with him. It was his forum so he would always do what he wanted but he would always listen.

Steve and I would chat about how much we hated FB but eventually we both ended up on there. I am not a big user but he got into the swing in his usual infectious way and I must admit to reading virtually every post he made.

I have always been in awe as to how he crammed so much into a 24 hour day; my day will now be lacking that little something.

RIP Steve and thank you Bro.

My thoughts are with your family.

Ste was one of the funniest blokes I've ever known, and a fellow Midlander to boot ;) Y o b r o days were the best, he'll be sadly missed :(
Still can't believe he won't be posting photos of pot noodles for his tea on facebook any more.
Raising a glass to you tonight.
