Longtime original TigerNet member was buried today in GWD.


Sep 20, 2011, 8:31 PM

One of the original TigerNeters Username: GreenwoodTiger
died this past weekend. He had Esophageal Cancer that had spread to his Liver, Lungs and Brain. His name was Donnie Dowis -- a Clemson Graduate who was manager of the Greenwood Parks and Recreation since about 1985. He was ALWAYS checking out Tigernet,but he didn't post a lot. He went to every football game and a lot of basketball and baseball games also. His last sign on to TigerNet was Aug 25, 2011 9:16 PM after which he became bedridden and could no longer go on the computer.

Here is his Obituary link

RIP Donnie

I can think of no better remembrance than for the Tigers to give him a win over FSU for his first game in Glory.

Journey well, Greenwood Tiger!
