    These kind of sudden departures are never easy. You have my condolences.

    May he rest in peace and may his pen never cease, no matter where he is now.

    This is a bit of a native song I think is appropriate for the given situation.


    This song is as much for him and for those that are mourning.

    Requiescat in pace

    I'm kinda new here so I never really interact with him.
    I'm sorry for your loss and I wish that he find peace wherever he is now.

    I only recently found Thunderbolt and his work. They were well written and fun to read. It is sad to see that there will never be any more writing from him. The loss of one of our own is felt by all on this site.

    M'am my heart goes out to you and your family.

    Thunderbolt, wherever you are, I hope you rest well in heaven and experience great things your the next life.

    I only read his Xianxia collab, as I've only really read very few things here and I'm not really a debater or quester; Though I have tried both. I didn't see this until now because I'm rarely here and don't read the banners; I only caught this because I went to go catch up on said Xianxia.

    I am glad to see all the support the forum gives to those passed even if they didn't know them well, this is a good place it seems. For a certain definition of good.

    I recently lost my grandmother and it took me months to even really involve myself in anything afterwards, I dropped everything I was doing, I can not imagine what losing someone even closer is like.

    I don't know if he was religious, but I will pray for him, on the off chance that my prayers actually matter like I believe they do. For you, too, in hopes that bearing the pain may be easier.

    Well Newbie here but I can already tell that the Loss of this guy has made a large hole. Best of luck to his wife and I hope she gets through this mostly intact. I admit I may not know much about the circumstances but such a loss will weigh heavily for years. Hopefully she gets a lot of proper support to ease this for her.

    I've just started on here about a month ago and some of the first stuff I read was Thunderbolt's stories. As soon as I get off I'm going to go home and raise a glass in the name of Thunderbolt, one of the o7. I wish you my best condolences for his loss ma'am. He will be missed. RIP Thunderbolt.
