It seems like just yesterday that TL sent him that get-well card... I kind of assumed he was recovering. Really sad to hear he didn't make it. It might sound weird to say it, but he's the closest person I know who's died of leukemia.

I have to admit I didn't even know him before, as I haven't ever followed SC1 scene much or watched SC1.

But damn this made me incredibly sad. After reading pages of these reads, his posts and the TL thing in the main page, I now understand and know he was a great, amazing guy and a player. This community always needs people like him.

Rest in peace.

very sad news
reading some of his posts, one of his motivations for wanting to get better was so he can continue showing us good games and entertaining us, which makes it even more sad. we're not worthy

death in general is quite hard to cope with, but when a jubilant young man is taken from us, sigh... just not fair

rest in peace

This is so sudden. I wish I'd spoken to him while he was still posting on tl now.

I haven't read his messages on tl.net, now that I've read them I guess I'd better didn't..

Life is such a fragile thing. We are here now reading, contemplating, having feelings and making plans. Our hearts are beating and we are conscious of being alive. Yet it is so breathtaking to know somebody go, so young, smiling and struggling, having plans and not letting the hope go till the end is now gone.
And then there is nothing, just nothing, only the memory and the people who knew him.
And yet we grasp and try to remember him for his efforts and passion.

Violet, your contribution and achievements, your spirit and the connection you've inspired in all of us proves that life is so much more than just the absence of death.
