R.I.P. JP Stein - longtime pelican forum member

Saw this in the death fairy thread and thought it deserved it's own thread.

Never met the man but I did enjoy his posts and was especially inspired by his recuperation efforts and positive spirit post stroke.

Sail on my friend.....see you on the other side.....

Very Sorry to hear of JP's passing. Never met him but,he spent many hours on the phone with me when I was doing my 914/6 conversion. Always willing to help and offer assistance. I mailed him my shifter bar, he had the Jig and made the conversion bar for me at no charge. He was a great guy and offered lots of help to many on this board as well as the various 914 boards. Again sorry to hear of his passing. RIP my friend.

So sorry to hear that. I remember JP going back to the mid/late 90s in the 914 world.

RIP, JP, you will be missed.

Very sad.
JP and I hung out on a 914 club forum and chat thingy a long time ago, that's where he taught me to speel.

I knew his health was declining but i had hoped he had many more years left.
I'll miss him.

Yellow Porsches are faster.

JP gave me the pennies after I mentioned I needed some for my cue joint protectors. He didn't know what joint protectors were, so sent the pennies in order to find out. On the billiards board they are referred to as "JPs"...

Another memory....thanks JP.
