Sad note on the passing of a TigerNet member


Nov 23, 2011, 11:50 AM

Last night I received a note from husband of longtime TigerNet member GBS that she had passed away after suffering a stroke on the way to the UNC game. He said that she enjoyed TigerNet so much and was a true Clemson Tiger, through and through. Keep her family in your thoughts and prayers.

Nov 23, 2011, 1:01 PM

Nov 23, 2011, 1:04 PM [ in reply to mine too! And I had no idea GBS was a woman! ]

closer to the way my mother wishes i would.

what a great person, she could always make me smile, take pause and smile some more.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


it kind of makes sense now


Nov 23, 2011, 1:05 PM

I feel the same. Wise lady.

on passing of Garland...who had to be a special Lady in that she supported the Tigers with such passion...plus gave part of herself literally to others with their physical needs.

Go TIGER!

We have tailgated with Dave, Garland, and his daughters for several years. She knew more stats than most men I knew and was a Tiger through and through. They are from Winston-Salem and they entertained us last year on our trip up there and she surely will be missed. God got a special Tiger a couple of weeks ago...

GBS always added to the conversation. She was smart, sharp and not too cool to stay above the fray when needed.

Godspeed, GBS! You will be missed.
