sad about nace. i hit a spot with him which was cool. it was funny because when city workers came and sweated us we had to get down on the ground and nace had seen a white rat running around. all i could hear was him saying "yo im about to run i cant be down here with that rat runnin around".

Probably one of the top writers ever. It is so sad to hear that a str8edge kid with his head on straight gets killed over another fuckers drinking problem.

ok, just to clear up some of the rumors and misinformation going around:
the accident happened last nite around 7pm. ****, Nace, **** and ***** (from *** *******) were driving around ********* (not going home), getting flicks of the walls other damage left after scribble. The driver of the van crossed the median and hit ****'s car head on. It is a miracle three people survived. The intoxication of the other driver has not yet been determined! The cops are investigating. **** is now in stable condition with a fractured skull. ***** is also ok with a few broken ribbs and a bruised lung. **** is also doing ok with a bruised hip, a few ribbs and leg. Nace died in the hospital late last night. John was a good guy and my heart goes out to his family and Karla, his girlfriend. thats what happened. RIP, John, you'll be missed!

NACE
-- He was THE writer's writer.
An inspiration to us all,
the most non-pretentious person I've met
in this scene. I feel blessed to have been
in his presence during his last few days on earth. his influence will have a lasting effect on the Jersey and Cincinnati communities - not to mention the world.
If you never met john you might think all this "nice stuff" people
are saying about him might not be true.
BUT believe me. This guy was the REAL DEAL.
THE Writer's Writer. - he will be remembered.
Respect & Love to his family & friends.

Losing someone leaves a void in the heart, one that never can be filled or even wanted to be filled. Much respect and sympanthy too all.

I don't really know what can be said that hasn’t already been said. Nace was hands down one of the most talented graffiti writers to ever pick up a can. In his ten years as a writer he had accomplished more than all the writers I know put together. Nace truly loved graffiti and trains more than anyone I have ever met.
The Mayhem crew has lost its most valuable member, New Jersey has lost its most dedicated writer, and graffiti has lost one of its most kindhearted genuine people to ever walk the earth. No one who ever met Nace will ever forget him, lets not all forget the stupidity of the act of driving drunk that caused this.
Rest in peace forever brother, you're loved and will be missed more than you could ever have imagined.

All graffiti aside, a friend was lost. I just met him on Friday and I cant believe he is gone, my heart goes out to all his friends, ones I have known and ones I have just met. I know exactly what it is like to lose someone so close to you, exactly a year ago the night of his death my best friend passed in a drunk driving accident. It takes time to heal, and even then there is still an empty space. I wasn’t sure that the people who I wanted to see this are going to see this but now I know they will.... soon enough I will be there for you guys. Keep your heads up, think about the time spent with him and remember the memories, don’t dwell on the fact he won’t be there, it makes it harder.
Rest In Peace NACE

to start off, respect to nace. In all honesty i never liked his graffiti, BUT, I completely respected it for being original AND evolving. very few writers these days are doing anything new and nace definately had his own thing going on. Innovation is the key regardless of (opinion of) style. heres to hoping this backwards world is a better place once you get to leave it.
safe journeys to nace.
AND TO ANYONE WHO READ THIS AND DIDNT THINK TWICE PLEASE DO..............
""ok, just to clear up some of the rumors and misinformation going around:
the accident happened last nite around 7pm. ****, Nace, **** and ****** (from ***** *******) were driving around Cincinnati (not going home), getting flicks of the walls other damage left after scribble. The driver of the van crossed the median and hit ****'s car head on. It is a miracle three people survived. The intoxication of the other driver has not yet been determined! The cops are investigating. **** is now in stable condition with a fractured skull. **** is also ok with a few broken ribbs and a bruised lung. **** is also doing ok with a bruised hip, a few ribbs and leg. Nace died in the hospital late last night. John was a good guy and my heart goes out to his family and Karla, his girlfriend. thats what happened. RIP, john, you'll be missed!""
WHAT WE DO IS ILLEGAL. !NEVER! FORGET THIS! THERE IS NO REASON TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT WRITERS WERE IN THE CAR AND THEIR SPECIFIC INJURIES. OR EVEN WORSE WHO'S CAR IT WAS. REMEMBER THIS IS A SECRET SOCIETY HATED BY MANY OUR ENEMIES ARE NUMEROUS. EVEN WHEN DEALING WITH THE DEATH OF A FELLOW SOLDIER KEEP YOUR GUARD UP. THINK TWICE. PEOPLE READ THIS SHIT. (i know that some boards have webmasters that edit mesages with too much information how about this site?)

nace has been around for almost as long as i've known about graffiti in the northeast. everyone knows nace, everyone can recognize a nace piece without looking twice yet you still do..
this just shows how upside down and ass backwards the world is. to see a dedicated straight edge kid with a good head on his shoulders and a love for something fall as the result of one loser's mistake. nace crushed and nace won't even need dedications and shouts to live on forever because he's done so much himself. nevertheless we will throw nace up, just as an honor. after this i'm heading out to go paint, and it's fucked up that i can still go out and put nace up but he can't ever do it himself again. it shows how lucky the rest of us are...and how precious these times can be.
kern, i hope you have a speedy recovery bro. i wish we could have rocked again before i left. and a speedy recovery to nesm, and scream. and condolences to the mayhem network, nace's family, and friends.

It's great to see how many others have been blessed by Nace's presence. The support of other writers has been the only thing that has let people like mysef Chip and Okae threw this situation and we all thank everyone like Lead Vizy Rapes and everyone else who has supported us and kept us from going on a killing spree.
Eatitupasshole will be dedicating the next issue intirly to Nace. I feel this is the only thing we can do to even start to come close to showing our appreciation for our best friend and painting partner for the past 6 or 7 years. I welcome everyone who has stories about Nace or comments about him to email me at
[email protected]
Please write Nace in the subject line and leave your name at the end of the email and I will use all the quotes and comments in the next issue. If anyone is not on our mailing list already send another email with "mailing list" in the subject line.
Thanks again to everyone out there and take this situation to realize how short our time on this planet is and how much we take for granted the people we love everyday, because it's pretty easy to forget untill there not here tomorrow.

I think this is a great way to remember him. I never new Nace, but his work was(is) a great inspiration to me, and he has always been one of those writers whose work I will go out of my way to photograph if I happen upon it. His loss is a huge blow to the community, and I'm sure that for those who knew him it must hurt a thousand times more.
Since his work and memory needs to live on, I decided to put together all my flix of him on a little tribute page. Its not much, but I feel I need to do somthing....

I have always thought that a guy like John was gonna end up married, with kids, and living the American lifestyle in Jersey till
he would be old and gray. I always felt safe around him. Anyone that knew John knew
how organized and practical he was. John took good care of himself and the people around him. He helped me through a lot and put up with my shifting personality for a long time.
John was the youngest guy I knew that steadily wore a fadora (those grandpa hats). I'll remember his green soccer shirt that he wore everytime he painted. And I'll never forget the way he would say "really" after everytime you told him something.
I met Nace in 96' while I was painting one of the first walls I ever painted in Jersey. I didnt know anything about Jersey or the writers it had... I came over here from New York and figured that my writing career was over.
John rolled up and I said whats up and asked if he writes.. He said that he writes "a little bit" and that he writes Nace. He was kinda being sarcastic.. but I never really heard of him. I wasn't up on magazines and didn't know much except what I saw on the street or in video's.
I was eager to hook up with someone out here and gave him my number. Long story-short the shit I'm doing now wouldn't be as good If I didn't have him as a painting partner during those couple of years.
I never cleaned my pieces, or really even put 3-d's on em till I started painting with him... I learned about one colored fills for cleaning and doing forcefields after your main outline. he helped me come a long way in a short period of time.
We took some never to forget graffiti trips, and experienced shit that is not to be said (Newark).
He's the reason why I became a vegetarian and droppred like 30 lbs. Never met someone that didn't eat meat before.
I remember how he bugged out once when i grabbed a pork chop from kitchen table and jumped in his car with it.. He was covering his nose and was like "aaah dude,, get rid of that!" I thought he was silly about that at first, but he got me hooked and I still dont eat the shit.
After John Zimkus there is "Nace". Where there is now a "was" there is an "is". The idea or the work of Nace is not past tense... It is present and on-going... Nace is' IS how we should say. The guys done too much for us to see, for us to make it all as done. His art is present and on-going through you! You are the ones that carry on his name and his ideas... keeping this man alive.
Nace is an innovator. He is formatted in his work and all is down to a science.. Nace's technical style, past the lettering alone took on other shapes and ideas. Nace's work is alive and on the surfaces of some of the most hardest to do areas. The quality is there and the inspiration is up to you. Countless memories with this guy... I will never forget John Zimkus...
my next 50 pieces will be in your name.

i really dont know how to say this, this year has been filled with a ton of loss in the writing community. the news of nace hit me hard, i never met him never talked to him on aol, but i know what an inspiration he was to alot of people, including myself, seeing nace and rime trains were one of the best parts of my writing career. i knew nace was sxe, i knew he painted trains and its all i needed to feel loss. then to hear some of the heartfelt stories from close friends makes me hurt a little more. this was a tough loss for a whole community, but it makes you realize how precious life is, i dont want to preach but things happen and you can always pull something good out of them, nace left a fucking legacy for us that dwell in the yards to see day in and day out. thats where from what i hear he'd want us to be. to all his friends, family, partners keep the heads up.
as has already been said there are going to be a lot of nace trains popping up, because of the respect that this man deserves. an inspiration for me at least.

I'm glad to have met him, even just to get my hand crushed by his vice grip handshake and proffer my little book to him in awe.

fr80 just told me how nace still had paint under his nails as he lay in his coffin... i dont know why, but thats so fucking dope to me. we all have to go, no getting out of it, and unfortunitly some of us will go sooner than others... but going out when your life is still filled with the things you love has gotta be the best way. were lucky (writers in general) most of us base our lives around painting. i know kids that moved across the country just to find a chiller yard. how many other people can say they've lived a life purely for pleasure? to chase a dream? nace lived his dream and i might not have known him personaly, but it didnt matter, it doesnt matter than most of us never met him, we've all seen his work, an it pushed us all to work harder. he wasnt a super star writer that was bigger than life, he was a kid that put in fucking work cause thats what it means to be a writer. back to the top bro...

I deliberately waited a long time to add my thoughts to this thread, because I didn't know the man and I wanted to hear first from those who did. I met him at a show just long enough for him to hit my blackbook, which he did graciously despite a sort of dorky introduction on my part. I knew only of his status as a freight king then, and have since found out the real extent of his work, making it clearer what we've lost. Just a few weeks ago I flicked him (and Chip) up on one of my local cars, a pleasant surprise.
Fuck the reaper for going big this year...RIP Nace, Meta, Sope, Child and all the others we've lost.

there's been so many writers in general lost in the last few years, its' really a kind of a warning that i keep in the back of my head now, it makes me glad i don't do illegals anymore because of so many risks in so many different ways. all i can say to all the writers, may they have been kings or toys, rest in peace. there's a heaven for writers.

throughout the past few days, ive had Nace on my mind, and to tell you the truth, this shit REALLY got to me. i've been just buggin because such a talented writer had to go at the hands of a drunk, if this shit touches anybody on any level, remember, as fucked up as this society is that we live amongst, keep in mind that theres a certain level of responsibility we hold when we decide to possibly take anothers life by driving drunk. you think that guy thought about killing someone or the consequences to an innocent person by him choosing to drive around shitfaced. it sounds corny, but think before you drink and drive, it might save another great person's life.

Do it man, dedicate a peice, do a peice whatever. Everytime Nace is written on something it just shows what an impact he had on the world, the fact that you never met him or whatever just goes to etch that fact in stone. Nace would have loved it to be out benching and see his name roll by no matter who did it...

I got some pics of them, including two memorial trains, so in a few days I should be able to get them on here.
I never got a chance to meet NACE and i am really sad that i didnt go to scribble jam. i cant understand why, but i felt extremely hurt when i heard he passed. i guess it is a testament to how much someone can influence another without even having met each other. I am pretty sure NACE is in every graff mag i have ever bought and his fr8's were in almost every post in the BENCH. i guess it was difficult knowing that when he passed, the source of all that artwork was gone. no new NACE fr8's in the magazines. no new NACE posts on 12ozprophet. i miss his work already. you are gone but you wont be forgotten.
RIP NACE
