JGale Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Dion took my Canadian cherry. I had never mailed something to that great country before I met Dion. We'll always have Vancouver. XXXOOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Haynie Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 We had a lot of private messages over the years, and did a little trading, too. He made this a fun place to hang out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthes Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I am gutted to hear this - D is a true warrior and great guy who has been through more than most of us can barely understand. He’s been a solid friend to many of us on the HFC for decades, Mr. FBIV himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specialk Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Damn I'm sorry to hear this. He has had a really positive attitude about beating this thing. Best thoughts and big hearted wishes sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass Guy Dave Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Big bummer. Dion is a great guy and I wish I would have had the opportunity to meet in person. Years back he sent me a nice little small care package, just because he's that kind of guy. At one point, I had noodled a little test improv jam for a new pedal I had just got, and I had called it, "Test, the" just to be a dorky smartass about it. He had really liked it, which was very flattering, as he had plenty of Rock miles under his belt as a gigging player. Probably gonna go find it and spend some playing time tonight with it and be thankful for friends, either 'net or neighbors. Sending you love.

SteveB Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I'm not here much these days but he's been here the entire time I've been around I think. Sad to see the message on FB but he's given a heck of a fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundernotes Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Nice guy for sure. I never got to meet him in person but he was very encouraging to me when I went through my own cancer thing a couple years ago. We did get to have a nice Skype chat about all that and some Hamer stuff too. Godspeed, my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Lorna, his wife, she’s an angel —she’s there giving him love, peace, gratitude and unconditional support, without any bitterness or desperate pain, but smiling, being proud and doing her best with infinite kindness, humour sense and good will. Solid! 🙏🙇 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy p Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I've been around for a while now, but sometimes there will be a post like this where the person is called by their real name and I have no idea who they are. In the future, could we all make sure when passing on news, good or bad, of one of our Hamer brothers that we include their handle here e.g., "our friend Dion, known here as 'HamerHarem65' is going through a tough time right now...". That would be most helpful. But I'll add that no matter who it is, I'm very sorry to read sad news about anyone in this awesome community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
