R.I.P. IamInuit

IamInuit was a great friend of mine, his name was Kevin. He was a founding member or TTR where we will be celebrating his friendship with us. I know he started to moderate here also so just wanted to let you know Kev left this earth last week. I am broken and sadden by this... but felt i had to warn everyone.

You can take the time to celebrate his existence and share your memories about him here:

the 13 th round . com

It will then be part of a HOF hommage section we have for our 2 admins who have died during our decade of existence on TTR.

Any thoughts or anecdotes would be appreciated!

thanks

Hi mate

He had posted on the moderators board about his health so a few people here were aware of his struggle.

My condolences to you and all that knew him. He was one of the good guys and will be sadly missed.

Matt.

Damn fine poster, God speed bud

A very knowledgeable poster and important cog in this forum. I am sorry to hear this.

That is so very sad. My thoughts are with you and all his friends and family at this time.


He was a breath of fresh air here, a real old school fight fan with a unique turn of phrase and the patience of a saint. His trailcam pictures of Bears and Lynx were literally gob smacking as was his reports of minus 52 degree weather where he lived.

In the PM's that he sent me I got the impression that he lived somewhere very remote and was very at home with his own company and of course the dogs that he loved. He was as at home talking about philosophy and politics as he was discussing the history of boxing and the fights that are woven into it's rich tapestry. His http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...look-back.html is a lesson in thread construction and maintenance. It demonstrated much more than his own encyclopedic knowledge of boxing, it provided an opportunity to draw out fantastic memories of historic fights from other posters and reminded us all of fighters that we had forgotten about.

He was a fantastic moderator, a true gentleman and someone who I am very proud to have been able to call a friend. He was very consoling to me when things were rough and I will miss his posts and presence here in this place that we all love.

R.I.P Kevin


Thank you for gracing us with your presence and may God rest your soul, comfort your family and keep you alive in our hearts.

Is this serious??if so, does anyone know what happened?

I never really knew about him outside this site but I have to say this I caught myself reading his posts three or four times before moving on and you can always tell when sincerity is the number one attribute in a person. I hope that wherever he is he should remember that if a man is good you need not know his name, only that you knew of him and the enjoyment of his thoughts that count. I still don't believe it but keep doing what you're doing in God's Mansion. Rest in peace.

Rip Kevin sad indeed I was wondering why he had not posted of late.

This is very sad. I never knew anything about Kevin as with the rest of you guys, but it's strange how you can still feel upset about one of our family dying. RIP Iaminuit, God bless. xxx

Wow... this is unbelievable.

A super knowledgeable and level-headed fellow whose posts I always enjoyed reading. Don't know about anyone else... but I'm in complete shock. We tend to forget we're dealing with real human beings with health issues, and the everyday dangers that come with life. I have no idea how old he was... but we tend to think (at least subconsciously) that we're all going to be around forever. I can't believe it still. Geez..... Rest In Peace, IamInuit. My thoughts, condolences, and prayers to his family and loved ones. Damn, what a sobering thing to read just when I was settling down to enjoy a little time on the forum.

This puts aside everything else we can talk about, bicker about, or laugh about. This is real life (and death). Man... I'm soooo sorry to hear these news. Didn't know he was sick, or suffering from anything. I tend not to talk about my private life on this or any forum, but I've been around here long enough to know some that do... and that's how you get to "know" people you've never actually seen in person.

Man.....

I would humbly request that this thread be stickied, so all Saddo'ers have the opportunity to pay their respects.

This is a shock. I had no idea he had health problems.

He'll definitely be missed here.

RIP

I'd like to echo these sentiments. I enjoyed reading his posts and taking with him.

Also, did he ever post as Bilbo? Was that a different Kev?

Either way, RIP Sir.

I did not know him personally but I also enjoyed reading his post as they were always knowledgeable.

R.I.P IamInuit

Great poster. One of the best for sure.

RIP

Kevin Sinclair.

I had no ideas about his health issue and I must say, I am a bit shocked. He was a top notch poster, and I am not saying that just because he died, I really mean it. Rest in Peace bud and thanks for all the wisdom.

This really does kick you right in the chest. Truly a class down to earth man who loved the land, loved his dogs and had a massive passion and hard fans knowledge of this sport. No idea it was close and stunned. We do loss sight of the man or women behind the keyboard at times. Not posters, punchlines or profile names. But people who have shining peaks and valleys of hardship going on in real time that few of us know of and few share. We laugh at it or with it, cut up or go at each other on here but shit man just take care of yourself and loved ones after the log out. Saying a prayer for Kevin's family tonight and thankful for him sharing some of his huge life experience. We're better for it. Be at peace brother.

Known him all the way back to ESPN days. The first message board guy I considered a friend. Good man, he will be missed.

I am not too sure what to say. Like everyone else, I thought he was a cool poster. Politically awake, at one with nature and his pets, interesting boxing posts. One of the crew. Hopefully he was at peace.

Excellent post on Kev... He had told me you were a good person and a good poster

IamInuit was a brilliant poster and his knowledge of the history of boxing was unparalleled.

His other post about wildlife and photographs were enjoyable too.

R.I.P. IamInuit

R.I.P Kevin , a great man , Saddonian and friend.

Goodbye my friend.

Stunned

RIP my friend

RIP


puts the world in perspective


its better to love one another eh

I had no idea he was sick, and I can't say I knew the guy personally - but I always enjoyed his posts, he seemed to love boxing and had a joie de vivre about him. Gave up his time to be a mod too.

Cancer is an evil disease, I'm sure he fought hard against it. It's horrible to hear about death, and his family and friends will be going through a hard time.

Rest in peace, Iaminuit.

He was a nice bloke who sure did love boxing.

Sad to hear this, He was a class guy and a total Gent

R.I.P mate

This is a horrible thing.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Its like a choir with a voice missing. You'd never think you'd know it wasn't there when everyone else is signing but it changes the sound of the whole choir. Out of respect for Kevin, and all those who've passed before him with little or any notice....

(sorry about the title, its the closest i could find to a non specific Memorial Ten count)
