Jeff Fuller (babalu87) was a very knowledgeable, energetic, and creative contributor to several homebrewing forums, including this one, until about 9 years ago when a terrible affliction known as Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) from a damned mosquito bite permanently damaged his brain and nervous system, changing his life forevermore. Although I never met him in real life, he was as much a brother to many of us as anyone.
Now today we just got word (through Facebook) that he has passed on from this world, age 52.

His profile page (as you can see, his 1895(!) posts abruptly end in August 2010 when he got bit):

So let's all raise a glass to this big, good, strong man, who I know loved this hobby as much or more than anyone else I've ever known.
Feel free to share stories and memories here. Rest In Peace, babalu87.
And please excuse the cheese but I do believe the following non-beer-related SFW video is most fitting.
