This is horrible, he was such a nice guy, incredibly confident and encyclopedic knowlege of music, games and generally an awesome person. I'm sure he will be missed by everyone who knew him, I'm actually really upset.
the last time I saw him I was in work and sold him some booze he was smiling and chatting to me with a bottle of strongbow in each hand on his way out for the night.
We weren't best friends but he seemed to make time to chat and take an interest in even the most casual of acquaintances.
This is how I remember him almost all of the time.
