To our friend Breetai. We're all going to miss you buddy.

May whatever comes next bring you as much excitement, mystery and joy as this little hobby did. That picture, with the brand new NES -- it breaks my heart, but it also reminds me of exactly what brought us all together in the first place. Thank you for sharing that with us.

God bless the dead. This guy was a very well liked and active member. I have not been here so much the past few years but still find his posts to be very informative.

Oh God! I can't find my words...
I'm new to the forum but Breetai made a huge positive impact on me.

Sympathies to his family and... rest in peace.

One of the members of Racketboy I most respected. Condolences to the family, and if I'd have known earlier, I'd have sent a letter too.

Rest in peace, Breetai. May the afterlife bring you all the games you ever dreamed of having.

I just happened upon this thread as I haven't been a very active poster lately. This is very sad, but I'm glad to hear his daughter will be alright. Breetai will be sorely missed. I always looked forward to reading what he had to say, and he was one of the members I remember as being extremely welcoming when I first started posting here.

Very sorry to hear this. The first time I spoke with him was about TurboGrafx woes. He was always quick to help and knew his stuff. He will be sorely missed.

I haven't been on much because of the holidays and I am shocked to see this. He was one of the members on the site who I honestly thought I had a lot in common with outside of video games. I was actually coming on to bump a older thread where we were discussing pro wrestling games. I was going to tell him he had to check out WWE13 because it might actually give No Mercy a run for it's money.

I haven't read past the first page and I'm not sure if I can right now actually. I honestly didn't know someone who I only knew through a screen name could effect me in this way. But if there is an update on a fund for his daughter would someone please forward me that info. Thank you.
