Dear JJ

Mate we love you. Hang in there.

Still have found memories of you teaching me about buying my first rolex in 2004, meeting at the mall to have coffee and checking out watches at Mansors and visiting your home.

God bless you.

My sincerest regrets in reading this. What a horrible thing. I literally sat here stunned after reading it for many minutes. Though I dont know JJ personally but only through TRF, I know he is a wonderful and gracious man.

Im praying for JJ and his family in this difficult time.

My best wishes for JJ and his family. I am beyond sad at hearing this news.

JJ was the guy whose posts helped me decide to pull the trigger on my Explorer II.

May we all live a life as full of friends ad family as JJ has the pleasure of enjoying. Remember its not the things we have in life but the people we share it with and, by these standards, JJ is a very rich man.

I have just spoken to JJ and Zemina.
The first op went well and JJ was having some dinner. His doctors will be deciding on his treatment over the next few days and then who knows he might even get home for a while and this would be good for him.
Zemina thanks you all for your support and she sounded strong.
JJ was expecting his grandaughter to visit him this evening and was looking forward to that.

JJ, as you obviously have for so many others here, you have touched my life in very positive and helpful ways even though we have never met. No matter what happens, that can never be taken away. Thank you!

My prayers and best wishes go out for you and your family! Your constant optimism and good cheer are a great example for all of us, and will go far in helping you and your family succeed in meeting this latest challenge. I hope to see your smiling face back on TRF soon!
