Title: Sad news to share
Post by: Sandman[SA] on March 22, 2014, 10:26:45 pm
I don't know an easy way to put this so I am just going to spill it out.

Some of you may or may not know someone I use to play odd games with, as well as joined some of us in NS.  But a friend of mine, Corey Benson aka: vampiredemon (last known as [CM]Demon on steam) had passed away about 2 weeks ago, from the date of this post.  It is not yet known how or why but his mom suspects it could have been a complication from him having a bad case of pneumonia a little while back.

Anyway, just wanted to let anyone that knew him, know so they could pay him his last respects.

I said a prayer for his family. This must be hard on them as well as you. How long did you know him for?

It's been a few years actually.  He had been a regular on our NS servers back in the hay day, and he had even applied to join [SA] once or twice.  But we declined his application.  Shortly after that, we had become good friends and had played many other games together.  We spent countless hours voice chatting on Skype, in and out of game.   And even included several other mutual friends in our voice chats and games.  I had really felt that I got to know him pretty well.  And now his spirited life had been cut short.  I didn't realize it at first but it took a little piece of me with him when I learned he is never coming back again.

You know, it's not the same when someone just moves on in their life.  At least in that fashion, people say their goodbye's and there is some sort of closure.  But in a case like this, it's like there is that feeling of emptiness inside me now because there is no closure in death.  I for one am going to miss him a lot.  Godspeed Corey.

THIS FUCKING SUCKS SO BADLY he was a great friend and he will be dearly missed by many. I wish I had talked to him more frequently but of course real life caught me. Then I come back to this and a very dear friend to me is passed. We will miss you Demon you will be missed buddy. LUV AC
