Wow, that's really surprising. I'm speechless. I've watched his videos since I was a kid, and when I learnt that he was in need of modelers and such for his videos, I applied right away. I made a few ragdolls for him, and we talked quite a bit over Steam. He always sounded cheerful, and I was under the impression that he was in great health. Truly a great loss.
Colin, aka Kitty, was the best friend I have ever had. He was like a brother to me. In fact, he WAS my brother. I loved him to death. I've been best friends with him for over six years now. I knew him before his videos got extremely popular. He helped me grow as a person and as a YouTuber. I owe my REMOTE success, every single one of the 9k subscribers, all to his guidance - his support - his influence and his motivation. I owe so much to him and more. He was one of the best, most positive and hilarious people I have ever known. He was literally the most amazing, kind, caring, loving, influential, brave, courageous, creative, talented and open person I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Even when facing death, he always kept a smile on his face and always had the MOST positive attitude I have ever known anyone to ever had. He was such a strong person and he wanted so badly to kick cancers ass. For the longest time, we thought he had. But unfortunately, his last visit to CHOP brought terrible news. We had a good long talk Friday. I was trying to arrange a time to play a game with him, as we had been trying to do for a while. Then he told me that unfortunately, his leukemia had returned - even after a bone marrow transplant - and that he didn't know how much time he had left. We said what we needed to say and talked like the good old days. One of the last things he told me is that no matter where we were, he always felt like I was right beside him. I felt the exact same way. He told me to not let his passing change who I am. I made a promise to him that I would finish the final video I had him voice act for that we were working on for him. He made a promise that he would haunt me with visions of Joe Barbaro... Then I found out today, two days later, that he had passed. I am so devastated beyond belief. I miss him more than I could ever state. I have shed too many tears today. I will never forget you, brother. I love you to death. Rest in peace, and goodbye. :'(
like almost everyone else has said, his videos really made going through highschool a little easier and they were always something me and my friends could watch and quote. Thanks, rest in peace
Holy shit, dammnn... That sucks, I didn't know he had leukemia. I guess that does explain his inactivity. Shit. Rest in peace.
Me and my friends watched team fabulous many a time when we were bored. Later heard he had leukemia and eventually that he was recovering but then I saw this. RIP you classy bastard
I'm just happy no one's gone out of their way to kill this thread with something rude. I'm not going to say his videos were the best, but they were still pretty funny in the realm of Garry's Mod. He's a funny dude and didn't deserve to die.
The year just started and it's already sucks. Rest in peace.
Shit man. Even though I didn't watch his newer videos as much, me and my little brother would watch the ones with heavy weapons guy back in the day. Didn't know him in person but he seemed like an energetic and happy guy, not to mention that he was really skilled in film production and gmod. Him and many other gmod machinima channels is what pushed me into creating my own content and going into computer animation. I think I said some bad things about his videos and such in the past, but all in all I still really liked the guys work. I really like the idea of making a gmod video in honour of him though. If I didn't use sfm instead I would totally wanna be a part of that.
This guy knew how to take everything from animation. Sad day for community and possibly worst day for his relatives. RIP
First edd gould, now him? What the fuck is going on in this world. :(
Oh my God... Rest in Peace. I loved his videos, especially Moments with Heavy and truly epic Mass Defect. He will be missed so much. :c
That is a great loss in Gmod Youtube community, damn, I was a kid when I discovered his videos and this was the reason why I purchased Gmod... Great person, great talent, great power of will fighting Leukemi... Fuck you, nature.
Christ, Kitty got ne to buy Garry's Mod, R.I.P.
dammit, and I was just watching Team Fabulous 2 an hour ago...
tragically heart-breaking to hear the passing of young, talented, creative people who didn't deserve to leave this world so early in their lives. i only hope hes somewhere better in the after-life.
fucking hell i still have him added on steam this is the worst news i've heard all year what the fuck
This isn't real, right? Fuck he's the reason I even Started to make Videos and now he is gone without thanking him for everything he made. What an awful Start in to the New week.
God I remember watching "Heavy's retarded moments" one morning years ago and fucking hell I hadn't laughed that hard before. He will be dearly missed by fans and friends alike.
Simply the best in humour and fun all in one package. Man this sucks and now I feel sad. R.I.P Humour
I just got up to hear this horrible news. He was an absolute inspiration for me to start animating. I owe my career to him. The last words he said to me were "I found these sound effects in the dictionary." (True story). Every video I do for now on will be dedicated to his memory. He will be missed.
Man I can't believe it.
I loved his stuff when I was a kid. He also introduced me to Dance Gavin Dance (one of my top favorite bands these days), A Day to Remember and The Story So Far. Not personally, but their music was featured in a few of his shorts. His real gems were the first-person projects, though. Man, what a way to go. Thanks for the yuks, kid.
His videos were so dumb but goddamnit I loved every single one of them and still do. [editline]26th January 2015[/editline] I still watch the Elliott series whenever I feel down. And my friends still yell the catchphrases at each other.
I can't believe he's gone... I don't usually get genuinely sad about things any more but this kind of hit me deep. Used to watch his content religiously as he made it, though I did kind of drop off from his channel when he started focusing more on the serious project work (like some of the first person stuff). Still popped in from time to time to look at his work, and was aware he'd been on and off sick. Never thought this would happen so soon though... His early videos were a big part of my regular Youtube routine back then. My best friend and I would spend all night playing games and watching crazy shit on Youtube and Kitty's stuff had us in tears every single time. Sad mate, just sad :'(
Cancer... Sucks. I can say that without personal experience, but because I've lost quite a few people to it. It's a nasty way to go. RIP.
