[QUOTE=SirDavid255;47010415]Now look, I feel extremely awful for typing this out. View it from any perspective and form your own opinions as to why I'm typing this but I will share why I truly am.
To get things straight, I'm not in any way trying to commercialize his death for my sake or his. I'm simply informing the public as a great (online) friend of Colin, I believe after some thought that I would be more suitable to deliver this message rather than just any random bloke. I believe he would much rather have someone he trusts send such a message out.
After a long 2 years of non-stop battle against Leukaemia, Colin Wyckoff (Kitty0706) has passed away on 1/25/2015. He'll be remembered in my heart as one of the most optimistic and upbeat people I've ever met.
I feel very uncomfortable adding any information from Facebook into the article, so please be patient when some form of source is released and I'd be glad to paste it in.

This guy and DJY1991 were the two people who got me into Garrys Mod.
Hurts to see another brilliant mind go.
Terribly depressing to see such a wonderful content creator be killed by this disease
RIP
His videos was the only gmod videos I saw more then once, must have watched them all dozens of times.
In his latest video 2 months ago he mentioned that his leukemia was under control and talked about future videos he was going to make, I was so exited...
Rest in peace, you glorious bastard.
[URL="http://uberchain.tumblr.com/post/109231669824/according-to-a-friend-of-ultimote-this-month-the"]uberchain just confirmed that another SFM animator passed away too[/URL]. Ultimo (one of the guys behind Sky Fortress, and Sniper and the Holy piss) passed away in october, but it was one of the most under the radar deaths around- his tumblr had been inactive for 3 months, and the only comment that implied he died was [URL="http://comments.deviantart.com/4/19425816/3713032156"]this[/URL] a few weeks ago
edit: managed to get some info from someone in the russian SFM community: he was an admin at the VK sfm group. When he died, he basically vanished and no admin wanted to talk about it, presumably didn't want anyone to panic. No information about his death is known whatsoever

Wow holy shit.[/QUOTE]
Why is it that the good and optimistic die young?
I just can't believe this happened, it's just too sudden. Fuck leukemia, just fuck cancer in general.
My condolences go out to his family and friends. I loved his videos. Heh, Team Fabulous 2 is one of the reasons I began to play TF2 more frequently. My grandfather actually passed away from cancer when I was relatively young. However, It's also amazing how in a time of sorrow, individuals that have (most likely) never even seen eachother in real life mourn and feel for a person that they know only about over the internet. I congratulate you TF2/ Facepunch community, I'm happy that you care.
oh Youtube, not the best time :(

Holy... RIP Kitty0706. His vids cheered me up quite a bit back in the day...

his about page still says he is recovering
:(
Gonna be making a collab for him. So if you are friends with any gmodders, tell them I will be posting an announcement video soon.

Hit me up on that, this guy's inspired me to start making GMod videos again.
leukemia's a bitch. If it comes back after a bone marrow transplant, you're basically screwed.
Can't believe he's gone...one of my friends makes a subtle reference to his videos everyday, pretty sure he hasn't found out yet.
Shit. My Uncle has 2 months til he goes (Lung cancer at that), so i was hoping to watch some gmod videos to cheer me up.
Then i saw Kitty's GF tweet. Christ, i wanted to get into GMod videos because of him.
[QUOTE=Lawligagger;47016182]Hit me up on that, this guy's inspired me to start making GMod videos again.[/QUOTE]
Feel free to add me on Steam. I will announce in my fan page when the video get uploaded.
Also, I getting back into gmod stop motion because of Kitty. If he wanted us to move on and not stop believing, then I will do so (Even though I am terrible at stop motion).
Our "god" loves us so much he created cancer to kill us slowly and painfully.
Checkmate, Christians.
Rest in peace, Colin/Kitty. You inspired me. Your legacy will live on.
Edit : Let me be clear. I'm not trying to start drama here. I'm just saying. If our god loves us so much, Why do we have pestilence and disease? Natural disasters? I don't see any possible reason. Population control? Possibly. Or maybe he does exist, but.. Okay, fuck it. Let's not devolve this into religion discussion. I'm sorry.

oh boy here we go
Was just listening to Nujabes music, for whatever reason I can't stop thinking about this guy's death. Unfortunately even the guy that made this music fucking died really young was well.

Did you really just use someone's death to hate on religion? That was completely uncalled for and extremely disrespectful to those mourning his death.

Well he got to heaven faster, then he can go make animations for God. I dont get why you typed this, if you actually understand how religion works. Cancer is a form of sin, like Disease, pain, death, and all that. God didn't create sin, sin was caused by Adam. So basically in context it was humanity's fault in the first place.
Also go back to reddit you fedora wearing prick.

Well, that's a good way to cause a grown man to cry, given the context.
