10 years ago today, DUer Khephra died.

[Myrina]

In memory of my friend & a prolific original DUer.

8. I cannot believe it has been that long.

A very important person to DU, so missed, especially in LBN.

[calimary]

9. Aw, man...

It's been 10 years? Sheesh. I would say "you've sure missed a lot, dear brother DUer" but I'd actually suspect - NOT. I'd imagine Khephra has been keeping close track, all along, and closely.



Khephra!

10. The first time anything on DU made me cry

especially when I learned that his mother had found him dead.

42. i remember reading that. i thought it was so sad. n/t

[quarbis]

11. Great guy

Met him at Broad Ripple park.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. I was still lurking when this happened...

Reading the posts that mourned him made me realize what a great community this is.

I joined in February.

May he rest in peace.

[Ptah]

13. If I remember correctly,

If I remember correctly,
Khephra's thirst for breaking news was the seed for
the Late Breaking News Forum we enjoy to this day.

[Jackpine Radical]

18. That sorta seems right.

I also remember when he was the first DUer to crack 10,000 posts. Migod, what an unimaginable number!

[orleans]

23. i was pretty new here when he passed

but i seem to recall he did a lot of the breaking news posts

and i recall it was a dark day when it was announced that he was gone

[arikara]

35. He did pretty much ALL the LBN posts

I remember being so proud of myself one time when I scooped him on one. Those were the best days of DU.

[gademocrat7]

14. RIP, Khephra

Gone too soon.

[progressoid]

15. Ten years.

[SheilaT]

16. It's impossible to believe it's been that long.

It seems as if he was here no more than two or three years ago.

With all respect to many of the wonderful DUers we do have, this place is a little lesser without him.

[byronius]

17. Thank you for that.

[Coventina]

19. Thanks for this memorial. Keph, you are still loved and missed.

What a horrible day that was.

I sat at my computer all day and just cried.

[Boomerproud]

20. Khephra was an original.

He will always be with us, and will always be missed.

[livetohike]

21. RIP Kephra. It doesn't seem like 10 years.

[d_b]

22. Time sure does fly

RIP

[easychoice]

24. Those who were here saw a gaping hole torn in this board on his passing.

He was so right on,just totally.

[MADem]

43. I loved Kephra--he was like our Walter Cronkite. LBN has never been as good without him.

He posted a well-rounded list of LBN topics every morning, without fail.

Cool guy.

[Aristus]
