Terrible news

I know there were people waiting to hear from Glov. I just got an email from his son in response to my email a few days ago. Unfortunately Robert passed away April 22nd. Rip Glov.

RIP Glov....all Burgh and Heels if I recall...
active poster to follow over the years.

RIP Glov--I haven't been here long but the one thing I'm sure of is he enjoyed looking down and seeing Fleury give up 4 goals and lose game one against the Blues Monday night

Posted the following on the wrestling board which Gloverino visited every once in awhile:

Oh man. He was a character - loved his consistent Notre Dame hate and general good nature even when provoked.

RIP Glov - you will be missed

One of our board’s family members, crazy uncle glov. Rip

 

[fkkkjm]

He posted for years and was as steady Eddie as they come. Very disheartening to hear. RIP buddy.

 

[The Spin Meister]

Sad news. Was worried when he didn’t post anything about the playoffs on the Penguins thread he had started long ago.

He loved to play around and ball bust people. Seemed like a guy that enjoyed life. Hope he had a great one. RIP.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Very very sad, he will be genuinely missed.

RIP Glov. God bless my friend.

Saw a post on the Wrestling board indicating he passed away recently?

Is this true? He's been an icon around here for years. An original character with strong loyalties.

 

[The Spin Meister]

Sadly, yes. There is a thread on him just a couple down.

 

[LeatherHelmets]

Sadly this hits hard. Not only that Glov and I had so much in common but he seenmd a legit great guy. He'll be missed. RIP Glov.

Yeah, after checking, I wasn't seeing the earlier thread because I had the poster on ignore and I don't recall why.

Maybe time to change my policy on ignore or unignore. No, not you. Marbles.

RIP GLOV. Anyone know why he moved around so much?

Dang. Rest In Peace Glov. The best for your family. I really liked reading Glovs posts. Feels like a friend has gone.

 

[flinter]

Really sorry to read this! He seemed like a great guy.

 

[PhilaNit]

That is terrible. I knew The Glov from PSU Beaver in the late 1970s. Sad to think that he is gone and we won't see any more of his funny comments. RIP.

 

[tlbakernc]

Loved Glov. Seemed like a great guy. Praying for his family.

How old was The Glov? Where was he from? We tended to have similar viewpoints on sports, except UNC basketball. Will miss him on here.

Sorry to hear this.He kept posts Alive esp the shark surfboard posts.Via con dios glove may you Rest In Peace.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

RIP
one of the more recognizable posters

 

[JoeLion]

I have been posting on this site for many years the Glov was one of the few I felt I knew personally even though I never met him.

 

[Obliviax]

RIP Glove! I loved his spirit and character. Big loss to the board. I hope he lived a long and wonderful life. You'll be missed.

 

[ouirpsu]

I am profoundly saddened to hear of Glov’s passing and will miss his unique mix of absurdity (love for the Tar Heels) and dedication to civility (calling everyone sir).

But I can now unburden myself with a secret I’ve been keeping for years…TheGlov admitted to me that he actually liked Dook, respected Mike Krzyzewski, and thought Coach K was probably the best college coach ever. He never said anything positive about Notre Dame, though.

RIP my board brother 😢

Wow. That is shocking. GLOV has been in my fantasy baseball league for years and we always had friendly trash talk going. I did notice that he was not very active on the fantasy league this year. He did participate in the draft in late March and made a few comments right after that.

One time GLOV posted that he had no friends who posted on this board, so I called him out. What about me? He apologized.

I know his real name and email, but I am not sure if he would want it posted here.

Dammit! Terrible way to start the day.

 

[GulfCoastLion]

RIP. Huge hockey fan and overall cool Pittsburgh Guy. I remember years ago debating something and then calling him, or referring to him as ‘GLOVE’ at the end of the posts (no harm intended, simply my mistake). He quickly and firmly reminded me that he was ‘GLOV’ ~ RIP GLOV indeed.

Why did he spell it without an ‘e’? He got mad if you used an ‘e’ in his name.

Why didn’t he use the ‘e’? Just being cantankerous?

GLOV was in my fantasy Baseball league. He was a little younger than me (I am 73) and from McKees Rocks.
He also hated the Dodgers.

 

[Waste Management Consultant]

R.I.P. GLOV. One of the most genuine and honest posters here.

 

[royboy]

I know his real name and email, but I am not sure if he would want it posted here.

Perhaps you could search for an obit and post it?

That's happened around here before when long-time posters like Shrink and Sgt. Carter passed away. It provides some closure. These are people, not just screen names.

RIP Glov, one of the good guys on this board.
Lets go pens!

The Glov was at PSU beaver with me in 1978/79 so he was born approx 1960.

 

[McCloudersportLion]

RIP and Go Pens bro

It was a shortened version of his last name, not anything to do with a glove.

 

[Obliviax]

The Glov was at PSU beaver with me in 1978/79 so he was born approx 1960.

so age ~ 62. Once I thought that was old but now that feels young.

"Hope to die, before I get old". - I am pretty sure The Who don't feel that way now.

 

[HailToPitt725]

Terrible news. I always enjoyed reading his posts. May he rest in peace.
