Vaya con dios, Sampiro. Those others… They ain’t worth no never mind.* Don’t let them stop you from coming back to us when you feel you can.

Best of luck, Sampiro. Come back soon.
Very likely. However, I haven’t organized anything of the sort. Asking the administration’s permission is the easy part; after that, I’d be lost. And what charity? We could e-mail Sampiro and ask, maybe.
Anyone want to pick up this ball and run with it?
Be well, Sampiro. My thoughts will be with you and your family as you go through this difficult time in your lives and the transitions it involves.
I’m so sorry to hear this, Sampiro. I look forward to your posts more than anyone else’s.
If you need anything while you’re here in Montgomery, send me an email.
I will never understand mean people. I don’t want to understand mean people. I will find it difficult to carry on in a thread with some of those people from now on.
Sampiro - come back when you can. You will be missed.
Sampiro,
You are the reason I joined this message board. I don’t know what I missed by not coming everyday, but I’m going to do a little research now.
(I’m the AA chick that has a serious crush on you)
Please call or email if you EVER come to Atlanta - It’ll be like seeing a long lost friend to me to have you here.
Aww, Sampiro, I hate to see you leaving in this way but I do understand the tremendous stress you are under right now. May your mother spend her days as pain-free as possible, may your dog get better, and may your stress lessen and be replaced by some peace. Come back to us the moment you feel the time is right. You know we will welcome you with open arms.
Best wishes, Sampiro. Take your time dealing with this difficult period.
I hope you’ll be back. You will be missed.
Likewise, my friend. Please come on back when you can. You’re the southern fix this cracker living up north needs.
Sampiro, I wish you all the best. Good luck, we’ll all be thinking of you.
Take care of yourself Sampiro, my best wishes go out to you and your family/friends. Send word when your book is published so I can line up to buy a copy please? (Can one of his friends maybe copy this thread and see to it that he see it please?)
Best wishes to you, Sampiro. You will be missed. A lot. 
I’ll miss you Sampiro. I’ve always enjoyed your posts.
Take care, Sampiro, and good luck. We’ll miss you.
Add me to the list of Sampiro fans who hope he finds more peace in his life.
I’ve never wanted a vertitable stranger to have a better life than I want for you, Sampiro.
Come back soon.
And do you know what with the pie.
Aww, Sampiro sweetie, good luck out there. You are often in my thoughts.
I read the other thread and with a sigh said to my (non-doper) SO, “Aw, my favorite poster is leaving” and he said, “Sampiro?” I guess I talk about your threads quite a bit.
Thanks for the laughs and the entertainment. I will definitely miss you around here. I sincerely wish you the best of everything. You’ve got tons of good karma comin your way. Please take care.
Sampiro, if you’re still reading this - I hope everything goes as smoothly as it possibly can for you and your family under the circumstances. You will be missed, much more than I think you realize. Hopefully, you will come back when you are ready.
