Farewell, Rick May.

Saddened by the news of his passing, I decided to honor his legacy with this short.
Though, chin up, my lovely people. Rick May accomplished a lot. The fact that many of us were animating his voice, recorded over 11 years ago, at the time of his passing, speaks volumes about the sheer power of his magnificent voice.

The music is from Martin Scorsese's 'Goodfellas'. Mina - Il cielo in una stanza (1960)

Cancer, a heart attack, and a pandemic is a lot and what takes down a real soldier. Rest in heaven Rick May. We will remember you.

“Oh Soldier, who will they ever find to replace you?”

[fatehmuhammadeilyazzainudd]

2019: People play soldier normally.
2020: People cry when they play soldier.

He will be able to teleport bread for as long as he wants.

He didn't die, he rocket jumped straight to heaven.

[Cartoonshi]

He rocket jumped into Heaven.
No skybox can stop him now.

“This...Is a Bucket.”
“Dear God..”
“Theres more.”
“No!”
Rest in Peace, Rick May. You are irreplaceable.

I'd like to think that, somewhere, he's rocket jumping to his heart's content. Sucks to see him go.

“You were good son, real good, maybe even the best.”

If Valve doesn’t commemorate this somehow in TF2, I’m going to be a very, very mad boy.

[Flaming_Saturn]

Every time I keep saying that this year can’t possibly be worse.


May he Rest In Peace, wholeheartedly.


As for the memes, we shall always remember him for: Panis cupcakes, merasmus, his screams, blessing America, and maggots

[ahab]

Took a heart attack, cancer, and covid 19 after recovering from a stroke just to kill him. You were good son real good, maybe even the best.

No one truly disliked this video it's the people who refuse to believe he is dead in the first stage of grief, denial
