Important News Regarding our Community Leader, Schweb

[chas_m]

I'm clearly quite late to the news, but I wanted to pass on my appreciation for Schweb, everything he did for the board, and his patience with posters when they would inevitably put their foot in their mouths -- as I and others have certainly done.

Terrible news. He will be much missed here. My condolences to his family.

Only just seen this. Terribly sad news.

Clearly the man behind what I've always found to be the most welcoming and helpful community on the web.

My condolences to the family.

Holy Crap!! talk about one moment to the next..

Maybe we should have a way to memorialize him here on the the form. Like name the News bot after his user id.

We've renamed "The Lounge" to "Schweb's Lounge" as a memorial to him.

This is awful. So sudden. He was everywhere here.

 

[Postoak]

How sad! Schweb was the rock we all depended on here. God rest his soul and console his family.

I'm sorry to hear of our loss. I haven't really been an active member here for years, but I have been online friends with Schweb since way back when mac-forums was first created. He was my first moderator. I have been keeping up with him on Facebook and Google+, quite often actually. I was wondering why there wasn't a ton of posts on Google+.

I'm extremely saddened by this, Schweb was such an amazing person. I've never known anyone like him, and I'm sure I never will again.

I'll be thinking about you man

This was not what I was expecting when I logged in after a lengthy hiatus. Schweb was really one of the most helpful and interesting members of this community.

Such a terrible loss, he will be missed.

What dreadful news. I offer my condolences to his family at this very sad time.

I think we owe it to him to continue this Forum as his legacy to us all.

 

[Kevriano]

My thoughts are with all his family and friends, and in particular those of you who knew him personally.
R.I.P. Bryan, you will certainly be missed, and not just here.
I am truly shocked.

(Thanks to Tattooedmac for letting me know by email, as I haven't been around in a while).

WOW!!

My deepest sympathy and condolences go out to his family and friends. Seems so sudden.

I appreciated his direct, no fooling around, answers as a new Mac user. Very distressing news.

 

[louishen]

I seemed to have missed this news.

Very sad, a great loss to us all. My condolences go out to all who knew him.

I may not have been around much lately, but this news shook me to the core. Bryan and I may not have always seen eye-to-eye, but it was his direction and vision that created this amazing community. Hiss passing is a great loss to us all.

May he rest in peace.

How terribly sad - what he created here is practically unique among online computer forums in general. It's a terrible loss and my condolences to his family and friends... Rest in peace...
