We lost a member of our community today...
Added 2021-08-04 21:06:36 +0000 UTCHey fam this is a bit more sad than most normal posts but I wanted to not only inform you all so you know what is going on.
but SovietSniperTV or (Dilon) one of the communities longest running Moderator's has passed away due to cancer. I've known Dilon since my days on Mixer & he has been a beacon in this community for over 3 years now. He's been battling with cancer since I've known him & had to frequently take long breaks away from the stream so he could be in the hospital and fight cancer. The mod team have known for a few weeks now that Dilon was given about 2 months to live but unfortunately that time was cut short.
Dilon was a kind, amazing & integral part of this community and I can't express how hard this is to process. Over the years we've had countless people join and leave the community but never leaving like this. My heart goes out to Dilon's family and his brother who reached out to myself & the rest of the mod team about his passing.
I spoke with his Brother and had his family set up a Go Fund Me to help his family cover the funeral expenses as unfortunately in the US even when someone passes it can put a family in crippling debt & I can't imagine the stress & sadness that his family must be going through right now. They lost a son, a brother, their family and now on top of that they now have to figure out how they'll even afford to give him a proper funeral.
I would appreciate any amount you can spare to his family to help with this even $1 from a bunch of people from the community can go along way. We lost a part of our family today & I want to make sure we do as much as we possibly can for his family.
Thank you for taking the time to read this message, I'm sure with the servers growth there is a lot of people here that didn't have a chance to meet or speak with Dilon but he was and is one of the sweetest most kindhearted person I have had the pleasure to work with over the past 3+ years. We will all miss you and I know we're all just glad he is no longer suffering.
I don't know what else to say outside of this, typing this up has been very difficult but Dilon always know that you will be remembered by myself and countless other members of this community.... I'll post the gofundme link below

2021-08-05 22:30:04 +0000 UTCI don't know if it is going to help much but try to be grateful that you actually met this person and you could have never meet him. I lost someone in my family months ago and that helped me to get the feeling of closure.(english isn't my first language forgive my rudeness if I have offended you)
