Details!?! RIP Leo.

His family posts on Facebook don't go into much detail;

Friends of Leo, Leo passed away peacefully in the late afternoon of 6/14.
Leo's memorial will be on Sat, 6/22 @11am. First Presbyterian Church of Newark. 33450 Newark Blvd. Newark 94560. [url=http://www.newarkpres.org]First Presbyterian Church of Newark[/url]. For more info, please contact James Divinagracia (cousin).

Afraid I won't be able to make it, but maybe some of you guys who knew him can...

:(

OMG, what a terrible loss for the entire community. We seriously lost a really great guy who was always willing to help out others.

Man, I'm so bummed right now. :( :( :(

Damn that's sad news. Leo was an avid shooter as well. You'll be missed man.

RIP.

Anyone going to his memorial?

All you old school folks, we should really pay our respects to one of our own. :(

Rip in peace brother.

holy crap Im just in shock, he was just posting here a few days ago, was even talking about a new dog he adopted like a month ago. Cant imagine what could have happened so sudden.

Seriously speechless.

RIP Leo will be missed here.

:( So f'ed up man... Way too young to go like that.

He was always posting about his dogs in his FB page...

I'm so saddened by this. :(

Very possible that it was a heart attack. Leo was a big guy, but he was very active and enjoyed the outdoors.

I'm going to dedicate a Crossfit WOD in his honor and have a beer for him tonight.

The fuq!!

Man - that's a shocker. He seemed like a really great guy

There's more than one of us within this age group that fall into this risk category. IIRC He was only about 5-6 years older than me. The weekday drive through town is not going to be the same this week.

Krinkov and psoper, you have a pm. I pm'd James via FB.

I'll miss legendary posts like this: [url]https://www.i-club.com/forums/bay-area-15/happy-steak-bj-day-229441/[/url]

RIP

Although I didn't know him very well, it is still saddening to lose one of the more active members here.

Damn, RIP.

I remember he was into R/C cars and was trying to get a meet going a while back :(.

That's very saddening to hear. I always hate seeing these type of threads. RIP man..

oh dang... RIP :(

Very sad indeed... I only met Leo a couple of times, but he seemed like a genuinely nice guy. RIP...

Man, May he RIP

Damn that's sad. RIP!!

Very sad to hear. RIP Leo.

Sorry to hear. I did not know him but I did enjoy his posts.

RIP. Best wishes to his family.

Sad to log in and hear this.

Rest in peace Leo.

Fuuuuuuuuuuu....

Man. Wtf. This is terrible. R.I.p.

Sad reminder to us all. Life us fragile and tomorrow is no guarantee.

I don't recall ever meeting him, but I've been on here long enough to have seen his s/n on multiple occasions. Condolences to his family and friends.

Wow. RIP. If anyone has the service or memorial info tan hay would help.... Such a trip. Never met him in person but always answeredy questions.... Rip fellow scoober!!!

wow RIP

I don't think I ever met Leo, but that's so sad when someone who is such a great part of any community passes away.

He was clearly liked and loved. Prayer for his family.

Shocked to read this!

My condolences to his family.

My condolences to Leo's family & friends. After seeing his posts for years, I finally met him in person at one of the BAM's in Novato. We chopped it up about Cal State East Bay, where he worked. He was most definitely a really good guy and always willing to help folks out, which was apparent thru his posts. I'm gonna miss seeing Duckman on the regular. :sad:



[I]Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the soul of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.[/I]

Swung by the family house last night, all the lights were off so not sure what's up and still waiting to hear from James.

never met him. but my condolences to the family, friends and our community.

I've been hesitating posting in this thread since I didn't know the guy, but judging from the support, he seems like a really cool guy.

Prayers to his family.

wow...such a shock...rip :(

What omg awww man :(

Condolences to the family and friends for the loss of a loved one that's gone too soon. :rip:

:rip:

awww damn :(

Sucks to always hear these type of news, never had the chance to know the guy but I'm sure hes a great person. RIP

Damn. One of the nicest people I have met here over the years. RIP Leo.

I always liked his movie reviews. hope you're in a better place.

Wow... RIP, so early for such a thing to happen. I saw his SN all the time on here... wow. I thought the title was a joke.

Wow, sorry to hear. Thoughts are with his fam :(

OMG. Leo was on the Hollister Hills adventure we took in what, 2001 or 2002? I've known him for a long time though mostly through i-Club. I'm going to try to get down there on Saturday for the memorial. Great guy and one that will surely be missed.

RIP Leo.

Could not have said it better. RIP.

He was definitely a good guy. Remember him well from the old Krispy Kreme days. I hadn't been to a meet in years, but we saw each other in Fry's a couple years ago and looked at each other with this "I know you, but from where, I'm not sure" look and we talked for a bit and reminded each other it was from i-club.

RIP Leo.

RIP. Always sad to lose a member of the community and at such a young age.

Always sad to hear things like this. Rest In Peace.

Oh man, I remember meeting him a few times. RIP Leo. I didn'tknow you all that well, but you will be missed.

This is very saddening! R.I.P. from the Edge Motorworks family. :(

How's his family paying for the services and all that jazz? They taking donations? Need help?

OH NO!!! I talk to him all the time on facebook and I didn't know this happened :( May he rest in peace.. I am shocked :(

I'm a bit hesitant writing on this as well but like always I pay my respects. RIP and even though I never met him seems like he's helped and been a great asset to the community.

[QUOTE=Concillian;3413199]Remember him well from the old Krispy Kreme days.

RIP Leo.[/QUOTE]


LOL, that just made me smile in a nice way. We can't do that anymore with people like they are now. I miss those. How many times where we'd think we were gonna get booted to only have him or me know the Officer that was visiting us from either of our High School's.

Just a headsup that there's an address typo. The church is actually located at 35450 Newark Blvd. 33450 puts you at the Hwy 84 onramp. I'm not on fb, so if that's copied from his cousin's post, someone might want to relay that. I did a quick check, and it seems firearms message boards he frequented also has the incorrect address.:ohwell:

[QUOTE=TheFozz;3412849][QUOTE=boardoholic;3412836]We chopped it up about Cal State [U]Hayward[/U]...[/QUOTE]
Fixed that for him, local's joke.[/QUOTE]
Nice, esp. since that's one of the things we chuckled about in our short convo that day.

[QUOTE=OneManArmy;3413314]How's his family paying for the services and all that jazz? They taking donations? Need help?[/QUOTE]
I'm wondering about this, too. Although I only talked w/ him in person a couple times along w/ the occasional exchange on the forums, I'd like to contribute what I can.

I've already got a Tahoe trip w/ my buddies going on this wknd. And knowing that Leo was an outdoor enthusiast into 4x4'ing & camping, I'll be sure to take in a moment of true appreciation w/ him in mind while up in the mtn air w/ my close friends.



Again, condolences to his family. May you rest in peace, Leo.

Thus why I posted it's at the corner of Cedar and Newark Boulevard, across the street from O'Reilly's and Big-O Tires.

[QUOTE=boardoholic]Nice, esp. since that's one of the things we chuckled about in our short convo that day.[/QUOTE]

Jesus. RIP, Leo. We're going to miss you around here :(

Edit: Clearing up some Church mis-communicaton.

Wait........ WHAT!?

WTF?

Someone has got to clear this up. That would be great news for us but either way still a tragedy for that family.

Facebook, misquotes, internet, hopefully Leo is indeed OK. Either way, Prayers are still sent.[/QUOTE]

Also from Leo's facebook page:
"My cousin Leo G Divinagracia passed away on Friday. I called him Manog Ter. He was 46 years old. He was kind and giving. Selfless and caring. He was patient and easy going. ..."

I think many in his family referred to him as Ter or Terry.

If you were a facebook friend of his, go check for yourself, everything posted there pretty much confirms it.

And Fozz, I posted your contact stuff there on a thread from his cousin, but I'm not a friend of James, and don't have any direct contact info, so that's about all I could do for you.

That strikes a cord with my brain somewhere. I think you're right on that.

Wait..... So he didn't die?!

According to psoper's latest post, yes, sadly, Leo has passed away.

His family has posted on Leo's facebook. Seems the confusion was due to the fact that his family refers to him as Terry or Ter.

Our forums will surely miss his quality posts. :sad:

:):)

:sadbanana:

Edit: Clearing up some Church mis-communicaton.

Edit: James got a hold of me via phone.

**Sorry Peeps for the mis-communication I was given.** Leo has indeed passed away.

Everyone needs to calm down and breathe. We will get to the bottom of this. It's BAIC, we always do.





















































Or we close threads........ that too....

Hi guys. This is Leo's cousin, James. Let me clear up some confusion.

Leo passed away on Friday at home, from an apparent heart attack. He is Leo Divinagracia, III. Family called him Terry/Ter. Derived from Tercero, spanish for the 3rd. So you will hear Leo/Terry/Ter. His older brother is also named Leo (Leo, Jr.), so it can get confusing.

Donations can be made to Leo's parents to help with cremation, memorial, etc expenses. I don't know specifics yet, but shoot me an email at [email]wassupjamesd@yahoo.com[/email] and I'll find out.

Thanks psoper for correcting the address to the church and notifying of this forum. Memorial will be Sat, 6/22 @ 11am.

*Sigh.*

Just got a call from James, recognized the voice.

Church was totally misinforming people.

James, thanks for the response. My condolences to you & your family.

As you've seen, Leo will be missed around here. The degree in which many members hold a bond w/ your cousin varies greatly, but we couldn't have described Leo any better than your family has... "He was kind and giving. Selfless and caring. He was patient and easy going."

Prayers & thoughts go out to all whose lives have been touched by Leo.

[I]God our creator,
your Holy Spirit prays for us
even when we do not know how to pray.
Send your Spirit to comfort us in our need and loss,
and help us to commend Leo to your merciful care;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.[/I]

Thanks boardaholic and all the members for your condolences. It's nice to hear kind words about Leo.

Yeah, that's really sad. But he was a BIG guy. Big heart and all, but definitely a big man.

I think I'm going to try to make it to the memorial.

Who's going tomorrow?

If the subaru holds air in the rear left tire I'll likely roll in it if I can.

I plan to leave my house at 10:30am or so and drive over.

No one else?

No sitter so I am just gonna visit and drop something off.

I understand!

I'm leaving in 20

[QUOTE=joltdudeuc;3415481]I understand!

Cool. I talked to Paul (Dad) for a few before we kept being interrupted. Quick simple chat and to the point. It isn't like he doesn't know where to reach me at.

Great Service :-)

It's a nice little Church with some good people.

Wow. I haven't logged in in awhile. RIP Leo.

May he rest in peace, my prayers go out to him, family and friends.

Never met the guy, but I knew he was a very long time member hear. It's still surreal whenever a regular member from this forum passes away all of a sudden.
