Hello, Sketchers- I wanted to let everyone know that we have lost a good friend who loved the sketch family. Xyeo passed away yesterday from injuries from a car accident. He was loved by so many for his humor, positive thoughts, and brattiness. He was a great friend to everyone, and will be missed more than anyone knows. If you have a thought or ancedote about Xyeo, please share it with everyone here. He was my best friend and more, and I, like so many others, will miss him dearly, but will keep all the great things about him safe in my heart. Thanks, KKM

He may not have been a player who wanted lots of points, but when he played, it was always with lots of humour. Don't think there is a person that knew Xyeo and didn't like him. Really gonna miss that guy.

Can't say that I knew Xyeo really well, but to say that I wasnt left in awe of him would be a lie.

I remember when a local newspaper in India did a feature on Xsketch and Xyeo answered it as did I.

He was the first friend I made here and he was an exemplary person - always joking always laughing and always helping out.

I don't remember him ever playing for points only for the game itself.

Xyeo wasn't just someone I met online ... he was a harbinger of spring to this sanctuary for all of us and I pray that God welcomes his soul into heaven and he kicks the Angel's collective rears at Holy Xsketch!

P.S. If possible, can we have a permanent Zero Table for Xsketch - considering how much he loved the Newbies.

R.I. P., old friend.

Xyeo,

I would like to thank you for being a great friend and even helping me with my maths homework. You provided so much humour and everyone loved you. I will miss you so much, along with the many others who knew you. So sorry for kelly, cinders, and his friends and family.

This is tragic :( i didn't know him that well, spoke to him on a couple of occasions and he seemed like a really nice guy. But when things like this do happen, it really makes you understand that there are real people behind the names in this game. I mean ofcourse we KNOW they are real people behind the names, but something like this makes you believe it and value everyone that little bit more. The comments above mine that i have just read prove that a friendship formed here is just as valuable as one in the flesh. A friend 1 mile away is no different than a friend 1000 miles away and my thoughts are with his family.

I am really sorry to hear of xyeo's passing. We only spoke a few times but he was extremely helpful and a really nice person. I would have really liked the opportunity to get to know him better. KKM and all his friends, I'm sorry for your loss.

I did not know of his passing before yesterday evening when Nuclear told me to read in the forums. I have talked to the mods earlier in the day and I regret for shrugging it off not knowing what happened. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, I deeply want to give my condolences Even though I didn't know xyeo very well, he had always been very nice and welcoming to me. He has shown me funny things on the internet and gave me access to his website. I'm very honored and I really appreciated him teaching me all the new stuff I know now. Xyeo, you will always be in our hearts and forever engraved in the xsketch wall of fame.

I speak on behalf of everyone here when I say rest in Peace, Xyeo. We all love you very very much.

Unfortunately I did not really get the chance to know Xyeo very well. I did have the opportunity to chat with him on a couple of occasions but it only took that long to see what an extremely nice person he was. I pray that he may rest in peace.
