"Memorial tshirt for Radin"
I wanted to post this on this message board b/c hip hop & okayplayer was a part of who my brother was.
My friend at www.ohioloyaltees.com was kind enough to design an amazing shirt to honor my brother, Eric Radin. It was created as a way to remember him and help raise money for the OSU Chabad House. Eric was a great friend to many and is deeply missed.
Those that knew him well would understand the meaning of the shirt. Eric was a huge Ohio State Buckeye fan. He had used the email address okradin for years – (which you all can understand the meaning of). Finally, the Hebrew letters read: “Legends never die”, as he referred to many people as legends – but Eric will always be a legend in my eyes.
Also... there will be a memorial held in Columbus the weekend of June 29th. I will post more info on the memorial once it's confirmed.
*EDIT: thank you to everyone who showed support and purchased a tshirt! we've surpassed the goal (50), with time to spare. for anyone still interested in buying a shirt, there are 5 days remaining.

if he was on this board with us today.
That being said, I do in fact love all of y'all deep down & got a soft spot that I will put dollars behind (although rafromqueens, I'm beginning to reevaluate our relationship.....I feel like you're becoming the Hot Dog Guy to my Homer Simpson at this point with all the bets I keep losing to you).
I'm not sure that I can actually wear this shirt out in public but the design/concept is dope and I copped one out of respect.
This will be a 'let her borrow it when she stays over to walk around the house in while cooking breakfast in her panties, smirking inside at her not truly comprehending the true nerd levels of internet culture she's associated with' kinda shirt.
Peace to Radin's fam & especially props to his sister for continuing to rep hard for her brother, I'd hope my little sis would do the same in my absence.
That's a beautiful & genuine display of love right there even tho the circumstances that brought it to our attention were tragic.
Lost a girl that I knew fairly well in similar fashion on this past Easter Sunday & it still doesn't make sense or even fully real to me.

Thank you all for your support!! It really means so much to my family & I. We really appreciate all the kind words.
Bombastic.. I really appreciate what you said & enjoyed reading it. You guys do have a family here, and it is so great to see it. Eric talked about this board a lot, and I feel like it was part of who he was, which is why I was glad to incorporate the OK on the shirt. It not only represents his family here... but his love for hip hop.
I am truly amazed with how many have already sold in a short period of time... already @47! So thank you to each of you who reserved one.
