Dane was truly a unique and wonderful human being. His intelligence and talent was awe-inspiring. He was a man that would take the time to listen to you, and never held any judgement or resentment if your own thoughts were ill-informed or different. He and I would often chat during our highschool years, and I had the pleasure of reconnecting with him later in life as adults, if only through online discourse the second time around. It was then that I learned about his own inner turmoil, and the weight that he was carrying on his shoulders. A man of his greatness cast a large shadow, and unfortunately sometimes it can be hard to move past said shadow, feeling as though you're trapped in the dark itself. As painful as it is for me to accept the reality of the situation, it's a solace to know that Dane is no longer plagued by his inner burdens. Dane, I hope that in another life you and I can talk videogames as we once did, but until then, may you rest in peace my friend.
