David St. John aka @sandmangator has passed away. He died on October 27after many battles with cancer. He was an avid Gator fan as many of you know. He grew up in Jacksonville and graduated from Englewood High. David was married and lived in Middleburg Fl. Sandman was a beautiful person with a giving and loving heart especially with animals. Before I moved toDaytona we lived around the corner from each other in The Ravines. Sandman will be missed by all. He was 76 Just wanted to get that out there If a mod could also include this post to Diamond Gators I would appreciate it . He was a huge Gator Softball fan Thank you.
So sorry to hear this, wing. We've lost some good Gators in recent years, including Graygator and gatorknights. Was sandman a buddy of yours?
DSJ and I ran in the same circle of sports enthusiasts, i.e. Jax Sports Talk Radio, back in the late 90's. But had lost touch in the last ten years or so. Don't let the tag Sandmangator fool you. He was a really good golfer and, after Gator sports, it was his passion. RIP David.
I met David through Greg Larson (R.I.P.) many years ago. He was a really good guy, very well thought of by many. A fine golfer & Gator. Condolences to his family and friends. May he R.I.P. Cancer sucks!
