The thing strange about that is its in Tennessee. I messaged him once and he said he lived in Wyoming. But Looking at everything it appears your right. And its very sad RIP. Thanks for finding that Jim.

Not so strange to me. I'm pretty sure he once told me he was a Tennessee fan (college football) as a joking retort to me being an Alabama fan, so that may mean he was originally from Tennessee.

Sad to hear. RIP Parusski.

This is so sad, made even more so by how long it took for us to find out, though you can see why. :(

The one thing that has been nagging at me about this is a vague memory I had about parusski mentioning he had two sons once. It's the reason the thread title says "may have passed" instead of "has passed".

All the details, date of birth, place lived, timeline with last post in the forum, wifes name, etc. all lead me to believe he has passed away, but the cop in me was nagged by the old memory (never ignore any facts in a case no matter how small), but I wasn't sure it was he who stated it and not another forum member I was confusing him with.

So I spent the last couple weeks going back and reviewing old threads I had posted in (thank god for the threads I've contributed to filter) and I finally found it.

Post number 21 in this thread:

clearly states he has two sons. So why no mention of them on the survived by line on the memorial site or the facebook post? I guess it's possible they were estranged or even worse perhaps he lost them both recently and his family has been visited with tragedy upon tragedy of late. But it does leave a glimmer of hope my findings are just an amazing coincidence and he is still alive and kicking somewhere.

Doubtful I know, but this one fact does exist and should not be ignored I think.

While it is indeed strange that sons are not mentioned, too many other things match up. His profile page has this, "From: Jackson Tn", and the funereal home is about 10 miles from Jackson. Birthdates from profile and obit match. The OP mentions that the wife's name matches up. Then combine that with he stopped responding, even with a ticket entered into support.

I recently had to travel to London. As I passed the new memorial commemorating those who served in Iraq and Afghanistan I took some time to spend a few moments in contemplation. It was time well spent from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

Reading this thread and reflecting on those Forum members who have recently passed, and whom we miss, I wondered whether we ought to create our own memorial area, in some format, on this Forum to commemorate those who have enriched our lives by engaging with us here.

I'm 52 and my eye opener was actually the TulliusDetritus post two years ago, when he told us that he had a brain stroke.
I begun to take some extra precautions, like trying to control my cholesterol levels and doing more physical exercise. In spite of all the precautions, we all know that the "unexpectable" is just around the corner. [:(]

I don't want to scare anybody but brain strokes are not targetting the classic victims: smokers, drinkers, the "I told you so" people that is. Among the victims, there are MANY who don't smoke / drink, do a lot of sport, and especially really young people (teens, or people in their 20s, 30s)... that's why they are puzzled. The main theory is this: our modern life, stress etc.
