RIP to a true Pitt man .
Time will run out on all of us that’s why it’s important to try and do the things that give your life pleasure. Too many people just keep putting things off until it’s too late .

Sorry for your loss. RIP Drew
Sorry you lost your friend. Hang in there
So sad. Hope his family is finding comfort. He brought positive energy to the board. Will be missed
There are FDA approved liquid biopsy tests that analyze urine to look for cancer markers that help identify aggressive prostate cancer. Good to get if your PSA goes up.
I HATE the “C” word. Sadly enough I lost my mother to pancreatic cancer. May he rest in peace. 😢😢
Well said. Drew made the most of his 41 years. He will certainly be missed.
Just got back from the funeral home (it was packed). Even though I only met Drew once, he made an impression on me and my wife.
Glad I went. Friend of mine is a good friend of his sister's and she introduced us to her. I started telling his sister about the Panther lair, and she vaguely knew about the board but not how to access it or anything. I told her there was a big thread on here with a lot of heartfelt words. She asked for the link and is going to check it out. @Chris Peak can we can figure out a way to get her access to the paid board thread too?
I talked to his dad. He told me Drew used to get so excited over things like landing guys on the transfer portal, sometimes waking him up in the middle of the night to message his dad.
Thx 4 sharing and thank u for telling her about our board. H2P!!!!
That’s awesome. I remember I got him and his dad tickets pretty close for a game last year. He was extremely grateful and him and his dad loved the time they had together at the game. Glad I was able to give him some sort of joy in his last few months with his dad. Cancer SUCKS
You will be missed, Drew. Each time I saw a post from you, I was thrilled that you were still with us another day. Even though you rarely talked about it, those of us who followed you on here knew the story. It was great to meet you and your wife at Fuel and Fuddle before the Syracuse game. That was really a great day. RIP, Drew!
I sent his Twitter account a DM earlier today with the links to the threads. I don’t know if he has a family member who has access to any of that stuff on his phone, but figured it was worth a try for his family to see what kind of impact he had on people.
I’m gonna miss him, man. Great dude.
It’s all important man.
Good luck to you and your family hope it works out the best it can.
Like most here I didn't know Drew beyond the Lair but after reading that outstanding obituary, I wish I had known him. What a refreshing and personal tribute to a man who was obviously beloved by his friends and family.
I lost one of my closest friends to pancreatic when he was 45. I gave his eulogy with his wife and 3 young sons sitting right in front of me in the first pew. That may have been the most emotionally difficult thing I've ever had to do. What a $hitty disease.
RIP Drew. No more suffering.

Sad to hear this news about Drew. He was a huge Pitt fan, and I enjoyed his posts and positive attitude. Condolences and prayers to his family and friends; may he rest in peace.
As others said, cancer sucks. Get regular checkups; wear sunscreen; if you're over 45 start planning for colonoscopies; PSA tests (if you're male); and mammograms (if you're female). Catching certain cancers early can certainly be treated, with positive results; I'm living proof ...

Drew's family is having a get together today on their street to celebrate his life and they wanted me to invite anyone from the board who wants to go. I'll be stopping by. Anyone else who wants to go just message me and I'll provide the address.
Just a head up — I don’t think non paying folks can message you. So maybe if they’re interested they can tag you/respond here. You can message them since you subscribe.
