Dear All,

It is with profound sadness that I share the heartbreaking news of the passing of my beloved older brother and The Kennel co-founder, Habs (Osman), who tragically passed away last week.

He was not only a co-founder of this forum but also the best older brother, a dedicated father to two young children, a loving husband, and a cherished member of the whole community. I know his presence both in our lives and on this forum will be deeply missed by all members.

In his honour, a campaign has been launched to build a community mosque and school for the needy in Indonesia, by a charity he passionately supported. If you would like to contribute, please visit https://tinyurl.com/mr2yz679.

I appreciate all your support and thoughts as we navigate through this immense loss.

Thank you for being part of this community that Habs cared so much about.

Allah yerhamo

Regards,
Nash
late but Allah Yerhamo.
Im sorry

Here is the last response I got from Habs.

It's so sad I'll never get another response from him in this lifetime.
He was a man of reason and wisdom which I will always miss.

Yeah man. 1995 was a classic. It gave us bragging rights over Manly. Since our comp win, Manly have won 2 comps and we have done nothing. Steve menzies top player and great bloke. Seen him a few times at d captains club.

Bloody hell I have been so busy with real world shit that I am just finding out about this now. What a tragic loss, far too young.

Thanks for everything you did for this community and for all of your contributions to your real world community and family habs. I didn't know you that well, but everything I am reading now really proves what an asset you were to everyone close to you.

I have just saw this now and I'm in deep shock about Habib, that was his original Kennel name when I first registered back in 2003, then he had other names along the way.

We've had good discussions on both here and on MSN, I just wasn't aware he was a very good troll and he has got me good, even teased about my name as my name is also Osman.

I have never met him personally but I have respected him along the way. All round nice guy and willing to help others like Assassin and KE when their father passed away.

Allah yerhmak Osman
Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un.

May Allah grant you amongst the highest levels of Jannah and give patience to you, the family and friends.

Graham's Dog?
So that was him? he trolled me good with that account and knew almost everything about me and I was thinking HTF does he know so much about me? I had to ask Mr Charisma back then and he wouldn't tell me other than its someone I know very well.

I helped him out with that lol
I fell for his trolling at first.
He ended up messaging me to say it was him.

I still have some of his old messages.
I won't share them here because it will make the snowflakes melt!

Back then the kennel was a "family" forum.
We weren't even allowed to talk about guns or use obscenities.

Now pretty much anything goes!

Are you the “ozman” the last option that everyone uses in their polls?
