Reading this thread was extremely tough for a lot of us, seeing how many lives that Victor touched. This thread was actually brought up by his brother at the funeral as an example of all the lives that Victor has impacted and how amazing he was. His brother really appreciated all your comments.

For as much as we all like to squabble on here, the community is pretty tight knit.

Edit, yeah the curiosity is killing me. Frick.... just seems so odd someone this young would pass on.

I know you're well intentioned Graham but with all due respect, I think if it were anyone's business they would know by now. Sleeping dogs.... respect the privacy.

I don't know the situation, however I have known enough people that have died and have witnessed the common trend.

When someone dies of cancer or some other illness it is talked about ("f@#$ cancer") and money is raised in their name.

When someone dies of a tragic accident there is a link to the local news and awareness about safety is raised.

When someone commits suicide due to depression, drug overdose or some other mental illness there is silence and no one want to talk about it and the silence is even more prevalent is certain cultures.

^ I agree. That needs to change. The stigma isn't helping anyone imo (coming forward with the cause even if it may cause embarrassment to the family name etc.)

01RedDX, this is not the place for such a discussion. Please make a new thread for that suggestion elsewhere. I know friends and family to Vic would very much appreciate it.

I know I would.

Thank You.

How would you guys feel about a beyond memorial?

This forum is big enough where naturally some members will pass away on occasion yet tight enough where some might need a way to pay tribute and keep their memory alive. I dunno, is it a good idea? I am not trying to be morbid but I can imagine some people seeing it that way.

Memorial sure, Necologue no that is morbid.

[MalibuStacy]

Never met him, or even have ever interacted with him on a discussion here. none the less my condolences to anyone who was close to him.

Agreed. I enjoy that about this place, it makes it nice.

By and large everyone who's been around relatively long term is good people even if you don't "know" them. Even the people you get into it with/poke at over whatever dumb thing (like myself and Bavarianbeast will occasionally) you would miss if they were gone and truth be told you'd likely decide, more often than not, that they're rad people in their own right if you had a beer or whatever with them.

It's nice to see that sh0ko/Victor left such a positive impression with friends/e-cquaintances alike.

RIP Homie, you will be missed.
