Springfield Blogger John Stone Passed Away 2007-04-04 13:45:13 - By: Dan

If you are reading this you probably already know that yesterday afternoon John Stone of Curbstone Critic passed away.

One of the first Springfield Blogger's I met was John Stone. He was a hilarious old guy that had a lot of great stories about his life and the Springfield area. I didn't know him very well but from the few times (too few now that I think about it) that I got to enjoy his company at the meetings you could tell he enjoyed life and enjoyed sharing his opinions about it as well as his experience.

I have been a little bummed that I haven't made it to a blogger meeting in a while and this just makes me more bummed. There are people in the group that knew him better than I and some of them have posted about him so I will provide links to those posts. Tony Messenger also has a podcast up from the blogger meeting last night where they talked about John.

I'm surprised, and not, about how bummed a I am by his passing.

Duane, you're right. Maybe it's because I never thought of a time when John Stone wouldn't be around.
