Please Pray for Fellow Rider EthioKnight (R.I.P.) - Page 10

00NissanNinja · August 10th, 2012, 04:10 PM

Damn, it brings a tear to my eye

My condolences to family and friends. From the posts I've seen from him I knew he was an amiable, great person. I've been checking this thread no stop today looking for him to have pulled through...

Ktaylor07 · August 10th, 2012, 04:11 PM

Rest in Peace EthioKnight. Was always very nice and helpful on the forums. Sucks to hear this sad news. Let's not let his death be in vain. Everyone please stay focused and watch for cagers while riding and learn from the news about his insurance situation with possibly only having bare minimum liability coverage. This has made me rethink my coverage and has definitely been an eye opener for me and probably alot of other members on this board. I know you're up there looking down on all of us. I'm gonna miss your stories and postings on this forum so much.

Miles_Prower · August 10th, 2012, 04:12 PM

Rest In Peace Alex
We will miss you so much

My condolences to his family

Trailerboy531 · August 10th, 2012, 04:12 PM

My condolences to his family and friends. I know they lost something very close to their hearts and we as well as a riding community and a ninjette community lost a very active and helpful member.

This is the last thing I wanted to hear, ever.

iplante · August 10th, 2012, 04:13 PM

cuong-nutz · August 10th, 2012, 04:13 PM

Not the news I wanted. I really wanted him to pull through

WKRG emailed me back asking for more information about the accident... I guess I'll email him back that Alex has passed now.....

Is there an account set up yet for donations to the family?

May you ride forever, Alex!

xSean13 · August 10th, 2012, 04:14 PM

Terrible news, RIP Ethio
To the stupid woman, I hope she sees some serious jail time for manslaughter at the minimum.

It's amazing how someone, who you never met, but share a common interest with, can have an impact on so many, in various ways.

Goodbye Alex. You're in the Creator's care now. May his family find some solace during their time of mourning.

broilmebk · August 10th, 2012, 04:19 PM

wowww. Not something you'd want to hear on ninjette. My condolences go to the family. Didn't know him personally, but he seemed like a cool guy.
I'm still not sure on how the accident happened. Rear ended or he hit the car that blew past a stop sign?

JELY1990 · August 10th, 2012, 04:24 PM

My condolences to his friends and family. Rest in peace Alex.

I hope the lady that hit him is charged with vehicular manslaughter. If it were up to me she would have her license taken away permanently... the laws in this country are too relaxed when it comes to driving.

Stingray1000 · August 10th, 2012, 04:24 PM

God rest him. God bless his family, friends and all his fellow riders whom sent him prayers and hopeful thoughts who he knew personally and knew from the forum. Even though we didn't know him as well as we would've probably liked, I know he had a positive affect on all of us.

EsrTek · August 10th, 2012, 04:26 PM

Also give my condolences to his family and friends.
RIP Ethio (Alex)!

CZroe · August 10th, 2012, 04:27 PM

In comparison to other forums I've been on we seem to have fewer losses, but that only makes it hit us that much harder when we lose one.

RIP, Alex. I hope you are in a better place where you will never experience pain or suffering again.

Monkeytofu · August 10th, 2012, 04:29 PM

Rest in peace Ethio, I truly believed that he would make it. My condolences for his friends and family.

I think our next priority is to get donations to his family.

thurt88 · August 10th, 2012, 04:29 PM

Sad to hear. Seemed like a cool guy. My condolences to his friends and family.

nautica · August 10th, 2012, 04:31 PM

Wow, terrible news. I never knew him but saw how active and helpful he was on here to everyone. And for people who have seen his postings and such this may hit kinda close to home, even for those of us who never met him. And as ktaylor07 said, everyone stay focused out there, and remember it only takes one mistake to be your last, so lets try and learn from this unfortunate event.

RIP Alex, your in Gods hands now.

MustangGuy · August 10th, 2012, 04:48 PM

I just keep thinking how he had his whole life ahead of him. It sounds like he didn't have time to avoid the accident, but we need to always remember how quickly things can go bad through no fault of our own. We need to always ride as safe as we can and always stay alert. Please everyone be careful out there, not only for your own sake but for your friends and family too. My condolences to the loved ones he leaves behind. He will ride forever now. I will never forget.

I can't believe it, he didn't leave my thoughts. My thoughts are now with his family. I hope this girl gets 20 years in prison for vehicular manslaughter.

davidreaper · August 10th, 2012, 05:38 PM

ninjagorilla got the police report from the police dept.
the only info I have is that she flew past a stop sign and cut across 4 lanes of traffic and he hit her.

thats as far as I know but ninjagorilla should be able to give more info if need be
