I'm very sad to say that Edd Gould, creator of Eddsworld, passed away on Sunday, March 25th. His Leukemia was just too much. Edd was my inspiration to draw and animate. He will always have a place in my heart. When I found out that Edd had died, I cried for 13 hours. People stared at me at school but my friends were there for me. I hope that where ever Edd is now, he is happy, pain-free, and smiling down on us all. Here's the video Tom and Matt made to explain this better: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkEvbOsr138
Even if you didn't know Edd, you should watch his videos. I'm sure that they'll make you laugh. Edd was brillant and always knew how to make people laugh. He never failed to impress me with his 'Eddisodes'. Rest in peace Edd, and treasure the good things in your life.
Dear Stealthpath - I am deeply sorry to hear about Edd's untimely demise. I know his artwork was incredibly inspiring to you and I am very sorry for your loss. Your poignantly written blog post is a most fitting tribute. I hope your heart starts to heal soon. You will never forget Edd and his memory will continue to live in your heart. {{{hugs}}}
ReplyDeleteThe first time I heard of Edd was your adoreable kitten-shopping t-shirt you got for Christmas... and I loved it! After watching the video I can see what an impressive young man he was and certainly what an inspiration he must have been to your already incredible artwork. Sorry to know that you have lost your friend, he will certainly live on in your memories and his inspiration to you. {{{big hugs}}}

I know you are hurting and I wish I could take it away from you, but use his memory and what you learned from him to strengthen you and inspire you to continue on in what you learned to love through him.

Dearest Stealthpath, I'm so sorry you've lost a friend. It's a most difficult thing to endure - the loss of someone you love and adore. You know in your heart that he is doing now what he has always dreamed of, free of pain, free of illness. This is how he will live on, in your heart and in your mind. I hope he continues to inspire you and your gift. Big hugs to you, my dear! -Anna.
ReplyDeleteThere aren't many people who leave such a legacy when they pass. You, yourself, are one of the greatest tributes to his memory, and what you've learned from him and how you apply it will help him live on. He would be happy about that, and proud of you. You give his life meaning. I know it hurts to lose him. I would be sad if nobody hurt for me when I'm gone. Thank goodness you'll always have a part of him with you. As your heart heals you'll be more able to embrace the smiles that come with his memory. I'm so sorry you're hurting now.
ReplyDeleteDear Stealthpath, I'm so sorry to hear this, but know that Edd has done something that will live on. And that is he has inspired YOU!
ReplyDeleteWith him as your inspiration you will go on to inspire others and so it goes on. He has become part of you just as you will become a part of someone else. And isn't that what should be life is about?
It is always a joy to have know someone like Edd.
Stealthy -- This is definitely a sad story, but I'm glad that you are able to keep his memory alive here. I hope you feel better soon :)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear of your friends passing. I usually find comfort in knowing that where ever our loved ones go, that at least they are free from suffering.
ReplyDeleteDear Stealthy, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend Edd. How wonderful that he was part of your inspiration to draw and animate. I know you'll remember Edd in your heart with warm thoughts.
ReplyDeleteDear Stealthy, I am sorry to hear about your friend Edd. It sounds like he and his animations were special to you. Many years ago I lost a BF at this same time of year. The crabapple trees in my yard had beautiful blossoms on them and every year when I see the blossoms I think about my friend. I hope something will remind you of Edd and bring a smile to your face.
