Remember to remember. Cory “Gimpi / @Krippl” Carrier

Posted by Michael On October - 4 - 2009

I have to post about this. A few days ago a close friend I have known for years passed away.

His name was Gimpi, also went by Kirppl on twitter and other places. Although I wasn’t as close in the later years as I feel now I should have been. Me and cory always got along great and even teased each other.

When I first found out I was laying in bed with my other half Kat. She went out to check on the #chris channel and saw what she thought was a sick joke made by a very good friend of ours. Calling hims to confirm she tossed the phone at me and went outside.

Gimpi, where ever you ended up dude. Don’t roll over to many toes and remember to plug the chair in once a day.

You will be forever missed Gimpi and we all love you.

In Cory’s honor we opened a new website for him. rememberingcory.com.
This site will be for everyone to come and remember our late friend and there is possible other things in the works.

Cory had MD all his life and had come down with some sort of virus. Although it is thought by people it was H1N1 that has not been confirmed. It has now been comfirmed he did have H1N1.

His last tweet on Sept. 29th said

@mmmbopmylife Been there. Totally sucks. Feelin better today, hope you are, too.
1:35 PM Sep 29th from API

and we had all hoped it went well.

We miss you Cory and may your trips be in a turbo chair.

If I think of more I may add some.
