Jeffrey Meldrum passing

[Wolfjewel]

Have seen what look like creditable obituaries that Prof. Jeffrey Meldrum has died of brain cancer. Very shocked to read this. Did anyone else know of his illness?

[Incorrigible1]

Yes, and there's a thread honoring the Doctor already started.

I missed that thread, darn it. But now that I read everyone’s comments, I’m feeling the warmth and camaraderie of the Forum!

This is really sad news to hear, and it's going to negatively affect all of our future work because Jeffrey was one true academics that always was positive in regards to the existence of Bigfoot. We simply just don't hear from Anthropologist /biologists from the top universities, and they should be on this forum posting but they're not because Bigfoot is still an animal that in many circles of academics they still don't believe Bigfoot exist. They haven't studied it. it's really insulting when you hear academics talking about Bigfoot as if it's a fairy tale and there's no real proof of it which I hear all the time. I just get disgusted when I hear academics and other people joking about those who know about Bigfoot. I just feel horrible that Jeffrey has passed, and I hope that in other University's across the United States people have the guts to stand up with their phds and agree that Bigfoot is a real creature since there is so much accumulated evidence that it could choke 10 horses. They don't agree with the evidence because it's not popular, and they know they're academic friends may put them down if they state  positive opinions about Bigfoot. I just feel so bad that Jeffrey Meldrom has passed, and he was a very courageous person that stood out and didn't waiver and always told others that Bigfoot was freaking real. I had an argument with my brother this morning, and he's a Rogue River guide and duck hunter and he is not even close to being convinced that Bigfoot is real. There are so many people that you have to have Bigfoot jump out of the bushes and slap them in the face before they'll really believe Bigfoot is real. Okay this is enough of my rant. I'm really angry and sad at the same time. As a memorial to Jeffrey Meldrum, I think that each of us should contact some of these PhD biologists and let them know some of the facts about Bigfoot and see if they will join our forum. This effort will be like us packing Jeffrey Meldrum's coffin to the burial site and posting a granite tombstone remembering his contributions and encouraging other great academics to join our effort.

I admired the man. He seemed like a good person, who did some very good work. He will be missed by many on this forum. Condolences to his family.
