Kent, thanks to you for keeping this community informed. It's not an easy service to provide but I know we are all grateful.
I'm also struck once again that we should let people know how much we value them when they are still alive. I only "knew" Yellow Kid as an awesome poster at LW, and I'm sure I could have told him more often how awesome he was.
...but you don't have a moment where you're sitting there staring at a table full of twenty-five characters with little name signs that say, "Hi, my superpower is confusing you!"

My condolences to everyone who knew him.

The Shangalla tribute is super, Gary!
I was thinking of the Jan Arrah dying issue in 5YL, where as his life is fading, his spirit goes and says goodbye to all his friends. I'd like to think that Yellow Kid dropped in here like that to say goodbye to Legion World.
Holy Cats of Egypt!

And needless to say, but I'll say it anyway, the Shangalla tribute is beautiful.

Ant cracked me up (as opposed to busting up my stuff, unlike some other nameless poster) so I was very glad when he got his Yellow butt* on over here to LW. This post makes me laugh thinking about it, just his sweet and funny way with words, I suppose! *you know what I mean

Arrived here after many months away and saw this. It has come as such a shock to sit here and realise that that I’ll never have another chance to talk to Art again. Like cobalt has said elsewhere, I knew Yellow Kid from the days before the LMBP found Legion World and we had laughed, joked and carried on having loads of fun in this little self made universe of ours. And now he’s gone. Taken away from us by one person’s moment of carelessness.
It has made me realise just how fleeting our time is and how swiftly we can be taken away from those we love.
My thoughts and condolences go out to his family, and also to you guys here on Legion World who are missing a friend.
Times like this I am so glad to have met as many of you in person as I have. Indeed just like the time spent talking to Art on line, you have immeasurably enriched my life and I am so happy to have met you all.
Faithfull

I have not been around in a while, so I missed this. I'm saddened by the loss of another on-line friend. Taken too soon.
Rest well buddy...and hope you had a good Birthday up there.

I keep seeing this thread but have been too scared to read it until now. I liked YK- he was fun, interesting and I always enjoyed reading what he had to say. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.
Legion Worlds NINE - wait, there's even more ongoing amazing adventures? Yup, and you'll only find them in the Bits o' Legionnaire Business Forum.

I just learned this. May he rest in peace.

I still find it very odd and disconcerting to thumb through some old pages on a good long thread and see his responses.
We always had interesting or informative conversations.
Damn you, you kids! Get off my lawn or I'm callin' tha cops!
Something pithy!

I know what you mean.
Every once in awhile I'll come across a post I haven't read before, or had forgotten, and it's like he's still posting.

We had been sharing some PMs on a roleplay a few months before he passed and I hadn't deleted any of those PMs yet. So it was weird to go through my PMs, which I usually do every so often, and see them there.
Since he joined the LMB in the old pre-LW days when I was absent, I had missed a lot of his first interactions. I returned soon after and we became friends. Years later when he came back to the LMB and now LW, I had created all these fake storylines for the Primary Color Gang during that time period in the LMB History thread an he then helped flesh a lot of that out. I'm glad that the history thread is there, even if it probably will take me some time before I ever update it again, because I'm glad I've got it all down 'on paper' on how intrical Art was to the group over the years.
