Quake3World

R.I.P. Keith Larson :tear:

Also known as lars63 , one of our own and maybe as his icon 'nom de plume' says, a FuddyDuddy.
The connection - Keith was my pen pal for many years in this email era. So many stories :tear:

Sadly missed :tear: and even though we never met, I came to appreciate Keith was a kind and understanding soul.

Cheers mate.

Oh man, rest in peace. He was always a great poster. He never got embroiled in any drama and always had something positive to say. I'll remember him fondly.

You know, these RIP threads that keep popping up at Q3W have a way of reminding me of my own mortality, but it's something else when it's one of us that kicks the bucket. That hit like a ton of bricks. I hope he was comfortable. :tear:

I forgot to add, I am advised he passed peacefully and in the presence of his loved ones. That is nice in these Covid times Keith was late of Portland Oregon and we frequently spoke to the seasons and how they differ across the Pacific :tear:

There's not many as I count as a true friend and mate. Cheers Keith.

Edit: Spelling

RIP Lars. What an absolute OG.

Damn...RIP Lars. Never spoke to him much but he seemed like a kindly old man. Sorry for your loss Whiskey

Oh wow, this hits harder than I expected. It comes as a total surprise.
My condolences to you in particular, Whiskey.
It's amazing how Lars has been around these parts for so long and yet stay completely drama free. I'll miss his positive energy.

I am man enough to say I tear at the loss of Keith, a gentleman :tear:

Rest in Peace lars63
I remember his birthday greeting for me a few weeks back. He was always a respectful member here.

RIP lars63

oh man the second-to-last nice guy on this forum. when whiskey's gone it'll just be cunts from wall to wall

RIP

Oh wow.
Rest in peace Keith, you were a huge part of what makes this place and will be missed.

RIP Lars - you were a genuinely lovely bloke and someone I had a lot of time for. Sad news

Yeah same, I had a bit of a blub earlier. There are spaces and places I define because of Lars above all else, and a part of this place is exactly that. Mans had an impact on me that endures, and I feel a genuine loss despite not having conversed with him for about fifteen years.

What a legend.

RIP Keith, lars63, you were a proper nice guy

I had a proper cry just now. I'm not entirely sure why this hits as hard as it does, I have never met the man in person.

This is the worst

Aww fuck.

This hits too close to home. Actually, this hit right at home. A reminder that we’re all people, just trying to figure this all out. RIP

Very sad to hear this news, he seemed like a nice guy. RIP.

This is incredibly sad to hear. He will be missed.

A lovely guy, and a true loss.
I'm sure Q3W wasn't a massive part of his life, but he was a massive part of the soul of Q3W.

RIP lars63.
Really sad to hear of this loss. His comments were of good spirit and oftentimes made my day better.
I'll miss him.

oh no. very sad news

oh man, this is tough to hear. Thanks for sharing this with us Whiskey.

RIP lars63/Keith, you will be missed.

Ah shit, I missed this. RIP man.
