Evad - RIP <3

He was a cider drinker mostly, but he did enjoy Kestrel...

Am with his friends and family at the moment, surrounded by people who loved him. It is a comfort, at least.
 
Glad you're with them. Hope things are as well as can be. Take care.

Kestrel - excellent choice. I remember finding an unopened can outside someone's house, taking it to school and drinking it on the fields.

He was still wrong about Super though. :)
 
Ni bheidh a leithid ann aris,

One of the very best posters on here, and that includes all bluelight. Whitley Town was that his team?

The likes of him will not be seen again.
 
Never personally got to meet u Dave but have only ever heard wonderful things about u and the help u have given to others. May your light shine bright with all the others Bluelighter's we have lost. Rest in Peace, Love and Music Evad. Take care everyone. x
 
Even though I drink most nights, tonight is dedicated to him <3
All the responses here and everywhere are testiment to his wonder...

Purely, all I can "say" is <3 <3 <3 <3
Miss you man. Can't imagine you not being here..
Forgive me for my statements making things harder for anyone xxx
 
K cider and 'Goodbye Horses' just made me burst into tears. I knew it was coming all day. I had to look after my son, and remain composed. It's actually now hit me what has happened. Dave, you're a twat for making me cry. You'd laugh at me for this.
 
I've just joined bluelight on hearing about it from Effie. Evad. Dave. Or David, was my beautiful big brother.

This forum is a difficult place for me - I am three years younger than him - he would want to protect me from some of the things he has posted on here. But now I find myself delving into his private world to curate some sort of image of the whole of him, not just the brother he wanted me to see.

I can't begin to describe the grief, disbelief and heartbreak that has suddenly engulfed every part of me. My bredrin/flava flav, David - i never caught on to the dave thing - was who I wanted to be, only I didn't have the massive balls - either physical and metaphorical.

I could relay to you hundreds and thousands of anecdotes to try and alleviate some of the heavy air that seems to be attracted to us all at this time, but I feel reading through that you need to find support from your fellow bluelighters. I always wondered how David had managed to collect so many close and eclectic friends, and realise only now that the time he spent on his computer was not just spent on youtube and wikipedia (and many other less koscher websites - an exclamation mark here feels a bit pathetic) but also on this forum and msn with all of you.

His reach feels immeasurable, the work he wanted to do - helping people - I feared was yet to start, but he'd had 8 years of hard work contributing here and that is so so comforting.

I'm sorry for my lack of wit and any spelling errors I may have made, he would not have been impressed.

I am in awe of your continued support, especially for Effie. I am so sorry if my words are weighty.

Please take care of yourselves.
 
Lovely post, remember to take care of yourself too sweetie.

I hope I speak for others when saying this - If there's anything Bluelight can do to help, let it be known.
 
annae thank you so much for having the courage to come here and post those lovely words. I'm so sorry for the loss of your brother, I can't even imagine the pain you're going through. Take care hun <3
 
Every time I look at BL there are new posts on this thread. Rightly so! In many ways Evad was EADD for me. I am sorry I did not get to know him personally, especially after seeing what those who did know him have to say. Anyway what I wanted to say is I am moved to tears whenever I see the dancing SLJ-clown. I didn't realise he was so young until now, I always thought of him as older than me, like a youth-club leader or something, and I'm 38. Never a thoughtless comment, always humour or wisdom, usually both, in his posts. Annae, I have lost a brother too, it hurts! My love to you. <3
 
Beautiful post <3

I've just been in such a funk about this week on BL. We've lost two really influential and cherished posters, one on each side of the pond. It's just such a tragedy and it doesn't seem like either was intentional. My thoughts go out to all the close friends and family, and to you, Annae and Effie. Stay strong and don't let blame or anger sully the amazing memories that we have

:)

You speak for everyone, I'm pretty sure of that. :)

I had to remind myself of that all the time too! That he would've been in the latter stages of primary school when I was doing my GCSEs. Frightening.

And my guess is he'd love being called a Leader (which was what he was), especially given his little-known love of Gary Glitter which he kept quiet except for the odd gushing PM in the wee hours hailing the genius of Gary.

Not here to pull me up on that one either, are you Dave?

Wish you were.
 
Such a sad ,yet beautiful thread. Posters that have been away a while suddenly returning to share their condolences,many that didn't know him in person,me included.Those that knew him personally, i cannot imagine the sorrow and pain you are going through.

It's incredible how someones online presence can have such an effect on even those that didn't know him. He was a huge cog in the wheel of this forum and truely missed by all. R.I.P
