We lost one...

Postby AbelArcher » Mon Oct 03, 2016 10:30 pm

Hello everyone.
Most of you probably don't know me, but I am AlexTaylor's brother.
Alex being a mod here and being generally well-known, I thought I should share the news of his passing.

I posted this at C3 a few minutes ago, so I will just copy and paste some of it here.

About two hours ago, at about 1:14 am (GMT +1), I had noticed that he was dead, after passing in his sleep.
He has had a minor form of lung cancer for about a year, and he was expected to live for a few more years at least, even maybe winning the battle and living a long life, but unfortunately, it took him away from us now.

I will upload his two most recently finished customs, as I have his account details and can upload his last songs properly on his account.

I will also answer/respond to any question/comment anyone may have.

That really stinks. Sorry to hear about it.

I personally did not know him, but his charts were great!

I'm genuinely speechless. I knew he had gone through a lot of hard times over the past year, but I didnt think it was anything this life-threatening. My best thoughts and wishes are with his family and fiancé.

They were actually married for about half a year, they got married mid-May.

And thank you for the kind words, both of you.

I'm very saddened to hear this. :( I haven't spoken him personally a lot, but from the times I did, I genuinely liked him.

My best wishes to his family and Matthew. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

Alex was one of the nicest, most hard working people on both this site and C3. His death will not only make a huge impact on his family, but to the people who have looked up to him. To us. We've lost someone very important. Rest In Peace, and condolences to his family.

R.I.P. Alex

For someone I almost met in person when he lived here, I've never felt such sorrow. He was an amazing person, and i'll always remember all the messages back and forth about customs, gaming, and just life in general. Just last week or so, he had got so excited because I reminded him that the Bioshock Collection came out. :D Ugh.

One of the best, if not, the best charter on the site, and a great guy, above all. After everything that's happened to your family, this is the last thing I wanted to hear. I regret so much not talking to him more, but his work here on FoF and on C3, and the legacy he created speaks for itself. R.I.P. Alex

* @away_xbox straps 15 sticks of TNT to Amak11's body. The display reads [58] seconds.
<@away_xbox> Diffuse the timer by cutting the correct wire. There are 14 wires. They are Green White Peenus Indigo Black Gold Grey Brown Violet Turquoise Teal Magenta Mauve and Yellow.
<Amak11> oh really
<Belisario93> hmm
<Amak11> !cutwire Peenus
<@away_xbox> ...snip....
<@away_xbox> Amak11 cut the Peenus wire. This has defused the timer on the TNT! Just try and get it off you without setting it off, ok?
