Dammit...after being M.I.A. from the community for a few months, I just found out yesterday that he had cancer and now to hear this today...it just blows. Not what I expected to come back to hearing. Although we never communicated much in recent years, back in 06-08, you were one of the editors I aspired to surpass and will always remember that one IC battle that we had (even though I still think I should have won ^_^). Seriously though, R.I.P. Magnus, you and your hair will be sorely missed.

Magnus I'll miss you and I'll never forget that "our farewell" video. Always was and will be one of my favorites. :(


Agreed about the hair. They will love it up there. <3

I never knew him, but wished I had. At least he will always be remembered in the things he created for the love of editing, of anime, and of fellowship in the Org.

Another sad day for the org. Life isn't always fair to us sometimes, more so lately it seems. As one of us leaves the bounds of life as we know it, our little community feels a little less whole and there is a gap that no one else can fill. Magnus was a great person with tremendous strength and big heart. I can only imagine what he and his family have been through but his determination and hope had always amazed me, even 'til the end.

You will be missed sir.

Damn man, it almost feels unreal. Seems like just yesterday saw posts from him on general discussion still fighting the good fight and always being positive. He was someone other people with health problems could look up to.

a-m-v.org needs a hall of fame somewhere on the main page for these people so they are never truly forgotten for as long as the site is around. People like Godix, zetzu, roll the stampede who were really well known and greatly missed in this community.
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

The last time I skyped with Magnus until the wee hours of the morning with Liz, he told me that he had found acceptance in his condition and said he would live the rest of his life how he wanted to, and to the fullest he could. He loved his friends, he loved the org, he just loved everything. And I started to tear up a little when he told me that and he said that I wasn't allowed to cry because, as he explained it, "There is nothing to be sad about!"

I didn't believe him at the time because how could we not be sad? But Magnus wasn't sad, he was happy to have all of his friends near and far there for him and that was all that mattered to him. He didn't want us to be sad for him. Of course we will all miss him and it will be a long time before we can accept that this happened to someone so young with so much ahead of him, but he wanted us to remember him and keep him in our hearts.

Magnus always put others before himself; even when I was talking to him over skype a few weeks ago (that last time I heard Magnus' voice) we were talking about his cancer, and he suddenly decided to talk about something happier, and out of no where said, "Kiki, you're so pretty. I'm going to come over there this summer and give André a hair cut. He's pretty hot, he just needs one of my awesome hair cuts." Magnus always found a way to make you laugh, and never let you be sad around him.

Magnus, I'm going to miss our skype chats where I stay up until ungodly hours in the morning and you would wake up way too early just so we could catch up. I will miss hearing you try and fail to say "thirty-three", which bothered you to know end because you would always say "firty-free". You will be so dearly missed, but never ever forgotten. I love you Magnus. We always will. <3

To know that I'd never ever hear you laugh again at the "airplane taking off" on my laptop during VC leaves me with a really sad feeling. I wish I had took the chance to try and talk to you more when you were online on skype. You were always like a great teacher to me and it made me happy to learn new things about editing from you. I just never imagined this day would have came so soon. I'll really miss you Magnus. <3 And I swear, one day I will definitely get around to watching Death Note like I promised you before. I won't forget it. And I won't forget you either.

I remember when I saw AMV made by him for the first time, how much I admired him and his skills. He was one of my favourite editors for years.
Rest in piece.
