Longtime original TigerNet member was buried today in GWD.

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 http://obit.blythfuneralhome.com/obit_display.cgi?id=973969
RIP Donnie

such a sad situation. He was such a diehard TIGER fan. I remember when we beat Carolina 63-17, he mowed the score into his lawn. Prayers and thoughts are with his family.

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!
