Regarding Bigbry. If you knew him at all, please look
70 replies
Firstly, I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post a notice like this. I've only signed up here to bear some truly awful news. I just wanted this to be posted in a subforum where those who knew him would see this.
I'm his daughter, Leah. And with a heavy heart I regret to inform you all that my father, Bryan "Bigbry" passed away in the early morning of the 23rd.
If you cared for him, disliked him or were indifferent; that doesn't matter to me. If you knew him at all, I figured you should know what has happened and why he will no longer be around here harassing you all. ;P
I knew he always loved joking around with all you sports fans on boards like this. If you knew of other places he frequents and could spread the word to his friends around, I'd greatly appreciate it.
If you knew his phone number and wish to call to confirm this post, I'll answer and fill you in on some details I would rather not post.
I know my father was a wonderful man who made sure my life was damn good and I hope you all here have good memories of him and his humor.
Forgive me for such a hasty, disorganised post. Bereavement doesn't make for the best writing.

Thank you for your sentiments, D.
It's truly tough for us here, it means a lot that we are in your thoughts!
Damn, thoughts and prayers with your family... always sucks losing an OG member around here but pales in comparison to your family.
We're all here because we're all not there.

Thanks, man. I knew he put in some time around here, and a few other places. It matters so much to my mother and I that those of you that knew him care.
have a drink, have a laugh, honor him in a way you guys know he would get a kick out of!

Honestly, and please don't take this as anything other than an honest testament to Bry, but the way he was around here, there's a part of me that wonders if this isn't a prank as he did love to screw with people so much.

oh, I know. He and I often had bonding moments over trolling people on the 'net.. but unfortunately, this isn't one of his games.. I'm actually his 24 year old daughter trying to reach out to his sports bros. I'm not sure how I could prove this to you and anyone else here but if you knew his number then I can inform you further there..
Otherwise, the only testament will be that you won't ever see a post by him again.. he's truly gone. and not in that internets drama whore kinda way where someone makes another account and ghosts it other places. He's gone as in, he was cremated today.. and im sorry if that's a grim way to say it but it is a grim situation. We all lost him.. for good.

I didn't mean to say I didn't believe it, just that maybe I was more hoping it was just a prank.

I truly wish I was. Honestly, I've wished this was just a joke every day since his passing.
He was too young and had a lot of living to do. He didn't get to see his only child get married, didn't get to grow old with his wife.. I know he was kinda a hardass on the net but he was a wonderful father and a caring man irl.

Well, it certainly appears that he left a helluva legacy in you.
I am sorry to hear about your loss . Its always tough to lose a parent .At least he had his fun with our MBs before he left .He was even made a Mod once but for the the Old Depths thread at FH .He loved the depths where members would basically insult each other.But he was a good guy underneath the clowny exterior he had on his avatar..
BTW I believe you and and to honor him we will be including him in this thread in the Rest In Peace forum.
Sorry to hear the awful news. It cant be easy and if you need to talk (it can be therapeutic) we will listen and try and help however possible. Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Well damn. It seems like just yesterday Bigbry was on here shooting the s#&! with us. I'll miss him and his unrelenting love of the Bills. R.I.P.

Rest in Peace good sir.
Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.
I am sorry for your loss.
Bigbry was a hoot and he will be missed. It is nice to know that his legacy is in able hands.
My prayers go out to you.
Rest in peace Bigbry.

What? No. Stop. Please. This can't be true.

Leah, I loved interacting with your father. So many laughs and good times spent together on this site. I'm literally in shock right now. Everytime I saw he had posted, I couldn't wait to read it, because I knew it would make me laugh.
You and your family have my deepest sympathies and condolences. Please let me know if there's anything you need. I'm always happy to help, even if you just want someone to talk to.
I hope you stick around for a while. Get a sense of how much fun we have here and how much we loved your father.
R.I.P. Bry :(

Leah your dad was awesome. So funny. Dark humor and under it all, a great person. He helped fund my radio show years back and was amazing for doing so as he knew I enjoyed hosting so much he didn't want me to go without during that time in my life when I couldn't afford the measley 20 bucks to host it. He was awesome and truly I am heart broken to hear this. Bryan was a great person.
My condolences to you and everyone touched by him.

I hope LittleLeah comes back to read these and hopefully she will stick around to participate in our lounge and other non football forums.
Leah, I just received the email from your mother. I had just reached out to your dad two weeks ago as it had been a while. I am devastated for you and your family, and quite honestly feel damn sorry for myself. Your father was the most generous guy around. A true gentleman underneath that crazy exterior. We used to talk about our families meeting up in Hawaii. Words escape me. I am so sorry. Bry, my brother, I will miss you.

I'm so terribly sorry Leah. Your father was an awesome guy who never failed to make me laugh. My condolences to you, your mom (whom he often mentioned), and the rest of your family.
I hope he and JetsSuck are sharing a beer on the other side.

Yes. If I can take any solace in this, it is that BigBry and JS are waiting, beer in hand for us on the other side.
Rest In Peace BigBry
Just heard that long time Fins Fan, and board member, BigBry, has passed away. For those that didn't have the pleasure of spending anytime with Bryan, he was a terrific guy. Extremely funny and such a troll on the Buffalo Bills, that most people thought he was ACTUALLY a Bills fan.
He and I, along with a handful of others, ran a few websites together and we all loved his originality, and personality.
Rest Forever, Scary Clown, you dirty, dirty Bills fan. :(
