It was one year ago today that MadChild passed away.
For those of you who never knew him, he was a funny guy who posted on these forums and often came on to IRC in the early AM hours. Some people might remember him from the old CS OTF where he was a regular poster. In the early hours of January 1, 2003 he was struck and killed by a drunk driver while walking home after new year celebrations. He was only 20-years-old.
Post from last year about his death.
Last topic he made, on the evening before he died.
It all just goes to show anyone can disappear at any time, so value your time with the people you like. May he rest in peace.
