Crimson Red Sports

Just in case you guys haven't seen it yet in the Daily Thread, but we have lost Leroy.  :( :(

Thanks for the heads up. I can not get over all these deaths from past months.

You and me both. We have lost too many last year and this year.

To Leroy. A part of our story, as we were a small part of his.

 :toast1:

Jamos and I had the pleasure of meeting Neil. Talk about a sweet and wonderful guy! He was in person as he was on this forum, a very caring guy and one heck of a Bama fan. Our CRS family has lost a good one today.

 :(

So sorry to hear. Prayers up for his family.  :pray:

Rest in Peace, Leroy.

Roll Tide.

 :(  My condolences to Leroy's family.

Sorry to hear this. Thoughts and prayers to his family. :pray:

RIP Leroy.

Special prayers for Leroy and his family. His wonderful good nature and intelligence were seen in his postings. I always looked forward to them.

Prayers for the family

So sorry to hear this...prayers out to the family.  :pray:

Amen. :(

this is terrible news
God Bless Leroy and his family  :pray:

I know he is in a better place but that won't stop us from missing him
we will hope Mrs. Leroy stays in touch if she can ...

Leroy , happy trails my friend until we meet again , God Bless
you my BAMA brother ... and ROLL TIDE ! 


2 and Jamos , you both are great ambassadors in my book
not only for CRS but our beloved Crimson Tide too ...

God Bless you both as well ,
thank you my friends for just being you 

I'm a better person for just knowing the folks in my CRS family
 :worship: :worship: :worship:

see ya' Leroy  :wave:
tell Coach Bryant , Navy Chief , Taz , WV  and Coach Hank ROLL TIDE !

Thanks for the kind words, X. We were worried about you earlier in the year, too.

My prayers are lifted up for Leroy's family.

My God watch over you and bless you,

and shower you with his love and peace.

This has hit me pretty hard.  I just knew he was going to pull through.  But God had other plans, and I know his plans are higher than ours.

Coach Bryant used to say that he never lost a game, but sometimes he just ran out of time before he got finished playing.  Ol' Leroy fought hard, but he just ran out of time before he got finished fighting.  But Leroy didn't lose, we did.  We lost a dear friend whose mere presence would bring a smile to us all.  But Ol' Leroy has won the victory and is now enjoying his reward.

No matter the circumstances he was facing, every time he was able to get on here he had a good attitude and a positive outlook.  He set an example that I hope I never forget.  When some minor triviality or annoyance gets under my skin, maybe I can think of Leroy and remember to be thankful for the many blessings that I have in my life.

Amen. : :clap:

Well said, SC. Amen.  :pray:

Me too, SC. Well put.

Hi, it's Ms Leroy , sorry I haven't gotten back about the services for Leroy. The day after he died , we had finished his obits and his sisters informed me that I had to be moved out of the family home by Jan. 9th and they are trying to take me to court because there wasn't a will to see what of Leroy's belongings I am Intitled too. Leroy always wanted to be buried in Jasper close to his dad but the family told me there wasn't any place for him, I then decided to have him cremated and have his remains taken to be laid to rest next to his dad. Leroy thought the world of you guys . The is a nice article in the local paper about his love for Bama football. Y'all can read it online and his obit also. It's The post-searchlight.com in the obits. Hope y'all have a Merry Christmas and a happy New year !

Mrs. L, that was a nice read, something that he deserved. Hopefully things will get better for you and I hope you continue to chat with us on our forum.

Mrs. L, check your PM.

Mrs L I will continue to pray for you. Leroy was a friend of mine although we had never met. I always enjoyed the back and forth conversations we had and the occasional PM. I wish you the best as you look to the future without Leroy. He was a special person and I know you miss him, we all do. I know it will be difficult but I wish you a Merry Christmas and hope you stay in touch with Leroy's friends here at CRS.

For Leroy I say a big ROLL TIDE!

Mrs. L I want to extend my sympathy. I know Leroy is in the presence of JESUS CHRIST the living son of God. You know what it takes Jesus said there is only one way to the father. I bet Leroy is waiting by the Eastern Gate right now for you. I know the Lord takes an Angel home when that Mansion is built. Wow, there is so much to look forward to. I pray Gods' love on you with Grace and Mercy covering you everyday. Just remember when your sitting around and that little pure soft voice whispers in your ear, who it is, oh yes it' Leroy. God Bless. Praise God for you. AMEN RTR!

RIP Leroy  :(

Thanks for the link! Good write up. Prayers for the family :pray:

What a great story. My prayers continue with you, Mrs. L. I pray that not only your grief but these family issues will pass soon for you. ROLL TIDE, LEROY!!

hope and Pray things work out for Mrs. L  :pray:


I'm glad as heck Coach did that for Leroy !
but I have to ask ... how did Coach know ?

ever ask a question you already thought you knew the answer to but
ask it anyway ?

then when you get the answer and find out you were right in
what you thought ?

then you feel all satisfied that you were right in your thoughts and
now that you know the whole story it makes you cry ?  (just a little)

there are some special folks here ...... Love you guys  :worship:

Praying for Mrs. Leroy  :pray:

Mrs. L I am praying for you and the sisters to come to where God would have them. I find what I know to be Peace in prayer. Know that Jesus Christ is in charge and he will satisfy his WILL! God Bless. AMEN
