I received notice early this morning of azron's death. I know he had been away for some time due to poor connection issues.
He was diagnosed with lung cancer a few weeks ago and had a whole lung removed about a week ago. His prognosis was good. He died in his fiance's arms, Joan. He recently became a grandfather in May, but had not yet met his grandson, Ronald.
I know he considered y'all here his friends
So raise your drink, joint or coffee to azron and post your favorite story or memory about him here.

I really dug this dude! We had a few good chats at BBP5.2 and then afterward. He was very grandfatherly except full of lol.
That motherfucker always reminded me of Mr. Edwards from Little House on the Prairie of all things...
I will miss us throwing a line asking Azron if hes dead and then having him come back weeks/months later checking in and telling us of his adventures!
My hat is off... |

I'll post an address when I get it should anyone care to send a sympathy card. It was his desire to be buried with his son in AZ, but his family here in NJ may choose to do something local.

Mega Tsunami tears!
I called my daughter to tell her; she met Azron when I was staying with him back in 2006.
I last spoke with Azron in December; he had a new love in his life and a new grandchild on the way and was as giddy as a school girl about both.
If you didn't not know Azron you missed out, and if you did you were blessed to be able to call him friend.

Thanks for posting this, Hellkat. I had a thread in preview mode but couldn't make it make sense.
I'm sorry as fuck to find this out.
Last Saturday, I got an email from Azron and I was too fucking busy doing stupid shit to respond to it, but its contents really surprised me...
Date: Sat, 21 Jun 2008 01:07:56 -0700
From: azron123
Subject: Lungs
Just letting every one know that as of now it looks like they got it all and I'm cancer free. The bad news is that they had to remove the entire left lung. I'll keep you posted
Ron
I'm not sure how I didn't respond to this. I meant to. I didn't even know about his lung cancer, but we'd trade emails every so often. I hadn't really talked to him at length since a bit after BBP 5.2.
Then this morning, I got this...
From: L. Hulse
Date: June 26 2008 9:49am (10 minutes ago)
Subject: RE: MY BROTHER RON HULSE
I am forwarding this letter to everyone who my brother sent it to. My brother Ron passed away early this morning at St. Clare's Hospital is Sussex, NJ.I don't have all of the details, but I believe he had a heart attack. I can't say much more right now, but will forward his son's new mailing address and any memorial information when I get it. Thank you so much for being a part of his life.
[Name and address]
Port Murray, NJ
Let us know anything else you find out. I'm going to respond to his sister and if I find out anything else I'll post it here.
Now we all (I) get to feel pretty stupid for perpetuating that "Azron is dead" hoax a couple years ago. I hope that means he gets the last laugh.
RIP you well-bearded son of a bitch... I wish you could have hung around more often -- and longer.

A very sad day indeed, particularly since he'd just become a grandpa.
Ron was the only Swarmer I've actually met IRL. We met a couple of years ago at his place in north Jersey, as I was making my way back from a conference in Rhode Island. We'd IM from time to time to stay in touch and he'd friend me when he joined some other social website.
Ron was a great, colorful character from what I knew of him. He had an infectious laugh and a rapier wit to boot--not at all surprising if you saw how many books he had in his house.
And he had a serious motherfucking beard.
Thanks for the memories, Azron123. I'm glad to have known you.

Rest in peace, dude. I'll pour some spirits on the ground for you.
You will always live with us through your LinkSwarm posts.
