I, like all of you, am stunned by the loss of our friend, Jeff Krentz. I'd like to thank the family member or frined who was kind enough to let us know of his passing. Our thoughts and prayers are certanily with his wife Sue and his children Bryan and Alison. What a loss.
I never met Jeff, but he was one of those guys that I think if we met we'd immediately hit if off, talking about our favorite show. When I saw Jeff's name it the header, I always knew he was going to say smething funny or interesting. It seemed like I just saw his name a few days ago, so I had to go im my private archives and look. Indeed, he mourned with us over Don Knott's passing. (see below) With all respect I wanted to copy the last few things I saw from Jeff. You will be missed, my friend, say Hello to Don Knotts for us. -------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2006 13:19:51 -0500 From: Jeff Krentz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Not a Nickname To: WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii On Tue, 21 Feb 2006 12:00:04 -0600, you wrote: > Right off the bat, I can think of "Goob" for Goober, "Nita" for > Juanita, and Charlie or Chuck for Charles O'Malley. > How about "Third Party" (It's not dirty) not exactly a nickname, but I just like sayin' it.

You misspelled "Mont-a-zoomer" and you are right about the voice, I never thought about that before. I'm going over to Reindel Hardware downtown here and get a new galvanized bucket, just for thinkin' purposes.

I worked late yesterday and heard about Don's passing on the radio. I went home and as I was telling my wife about it I was leaking some tears too. What a great man he was, and what an influence on my life. I, too, knew this day would come, but I didn't want it to ever happen. I am sad, very sad.
