Seasons of Love (Goodbye TGW) 💕

I wish instead of a heart I could put tears on the OP post. Cause I can’t stop crying. @TGW was a great man. One of a kind. I will miss him dearly

thanks @JGE @Chadmo @VeryQuietly @Saphirra

TGW was such a great man. With our alliance, his philosophy was always -

  1. respect everyone
  2. everyone should have fun
  3. what counts is effort, teamwork, collaboration. so what if your boards sucked and you got 0 points in war? what counts is you tried your best

even here on the forums, he was always sticking up for the little player.

and he was funny, creative, hilarious, wise. He had a tough childhood, but he never gave up, his grit got him to where he was now. He was teaching himself how to make video/online games. All self-taught, he shared some with me, he drew the art himself, taught himself how to code and make soundtracks…

and he was always honest with his praise, always made everyone feel good.

I miss him so very much.

Dammit @sleepyhead. That sucks. I’m so sorry. Big hugs to you, his alliance, his family, and friends. Thank you for sharing. I already miss the ever cranky but brilliant @TGW.

Really sorry for your loss Sleepyhead. We all suffer this loss because he went out of his way to discuss his frustrations in the game for the betterment of all of us. All that conviction with a good sense of humor to back it up.

Again, I wish his family and loved ones peace in this horrible situation

Like JGE, I can’t ‘like’ the OP; he will leave a noticeable hole in the forums, especially in the meme thread.

I especially loved the little fish eating another fish in the background of that one!

Really sad news.

We were all fortunate that TGW helped make the forum a better place with his kindness, humour, and energy. He spoke up frequently, and passionately on behalf of the f2p/c2p.

Rest in peace TGW. I will miss you a lot. :cry:

I will keep his family, friends, teammates, game and forum friends in my thoughts.

Oh goodness this is terrible. And to think he was still posting actively not even a month ago, and this happened. My condolences

TGW took ill suddenly and went into cardiac arrest, had trouble breathing… he was in the hospital for a few days before he passed :frowning:

I’m sorry. This is ■■■■■■■ terrible.

What a painful and heart breaking loss.

I’m on my way out. But I would be honored to come join your alliance for a while if it doesn’t disband @sleepyhead

I can’t replace TGW
I only carry a smidge of crankiness
Ok… maybe more than a smidge
And extremely hurt that I couldn’t share further in his laughter…

Open invitation… if you want some help

I must’ve started and discarded a dozen replies, each time realizing that I cannot express my sorrow adequately.

The first time TGW and I interacted on the forum was when he made my coffee cup avatar. He even said he didn’t really know me, but did it anyway. That was something special from someone special. It has been my avatar since.

He, and all that he gave, will be missed more than can be said. His willingness to give his opinions and help others was a wonderful thing, as was his grumpiness and sharp retorts (I laughed at quite a few). And don’t even get me started on the joy his memes brought.

I am sorry for your loss @sleepyhead

Good bye my friend, please rest easy, and please rest in peace.

Very sad news. Much love to his friends and family. Be inspired by his ideals of love, respect and the value of yourselves.

I pretty much never change my avatar, but I was just recalling a couple years ago many people adopting Lianna in honor of Khalessi. I think it’s time to become Graymane for a bit.

TGW loved wolves a lot. :wolf: I can still remember making him a hero card.
