Reapermann passed away this morning

[Storksofly]

Been in this org for quite some time now and reap has been nothing but funny with me very helpful and such a great guy to be around. He was nothing but a joyful soul a very good guy one of those genuine people that you just love being around and doing things with if things went wrong he always laughed about it and if things went sour he was also still smiling and would say things like 'hami needs to learn to pve too much pvp' we threw jabs at each other like Ali and Foreman. Everytime i logged on first thing id hear was 'Hey hami' wether he was in a inferno mission pande raid or sectors the hey hami always came through. I learned the news this morning as i was headed to work and i held back tears and even stood there in shock and told my gf that one of my generals has gone to a much better place today and took me a few seconds for reality to hit me back. Someone i played with everyday for almost the last year or so really does make you wonder. As i sit here and hold tears back it really does sadden me we lost a good man today and i really do wish his family nothing but the best.

People ask me everyday why am i in a PVE org instead of a PVP org as thats all i do. I tell them the people in AP really do make me feel at home. I enjoy being in this org with you guys and if you ever need anything guys you definitely know how to reach me.. I hope we never hear this sadness ever again in and out of this game. These upcoming weeks will be tough and i definitely will have a little black hole in my heart but time heals everything i was told.

Rip reaper hope nothing but the best for you pal.

Hami

Rest in peace.
Given that I have taken a mostly indefinite break, I did not know about his health. My interactions with him were always on the bright side, never stopping helping people.

My condolences to the family and friends.

[Xandramas]

I don't hold out much hope, but I've submitted a request for an in-game memorial to Reap , I'll keep you all notified

[Laenaya]

Condolences to his family and to those who knew him.

Reaper was one of the good ones. He will be missed

[Jakereaper]

I have found out about Reaper when I logged on asking about Ipande raids on that very same day. Really, really sad news indeed, as Reaper was one of the pillars of Athen Paladins for all that involve activity, help, dedication and friendship. As one very well said above, Reaper was always greeting everyone by name, and this and so many other little things make him the person that was close to our hearts, no matter his real life circumstances.

I know that I speak this for everyone when I say that he has already a spot in everyone's heart and that he will be terribly missed.

I only found out about this an hour and a half ago, I made a post about it on the Alliance forums and felt sad...

An hour ago, I went to pick Enato up from work. She found me 15mins later sat in the car waiting for her and crying.
Because of the way I was brought up (I won't go into that), I have a fairly unique outlook on death. I get sad at someone passing and that's about it, I then get on with my life and just remember them from time to time. I can't honestly remember anyone that I've cried about upon hearing of their passing.
Why I should do this now, for someone that I've never actually met (and was unlikely to ever meet) eludes me... And I'm holding back tears as I type this (my eyesights bad enough as it is without tears (good job I can touchtype!)).

All I can say is, if and when I get back ingame, there's going to be a big assed hole where Reaper should be.

Chris, if you want to write something, I'll post it on AOUs News page... Just PM me it (on any forum)...

I don't hold out much hope, but I've submitted a request for an in-game memorial to Reap , I'll keep you all notified

PM me if you don't get any joy, being part of AOU means I have some contacts I could try...

Already expressed my condolences, but I want to add that I am in awe of guys like him that carry the cross so that no one outside his intimate circle is aware of what they are going through. I wanted to add this in case his family reads this.

This was truly sad news. Reaperman was one of the nicest people i knew in the game. Friendly and helpful to all. Will be missed

Condolences to his family and close friends.
