Truly sad news,
i read a post about this on twitter
im still kind of new to the community so i didnt really knew about his work
tll the sad news, i send my condolences to all of his friends and his family.
Live long and prosper, Michael McBride
Poor Mikey...
I hope he's in a better place now.
I want to contribute to a Cystic Fibrosis Research fund in honor of him in the future.
I sadly wasn't too familiar with the guy or even his username but I was following him and I definitely remember the animations he blessed us with. He was a real talented animator whose work I've enjoyed seeing a lot. A few days before AngelXMikey's passing, I've been reading about his final tweets in a Discord server. It's pretty surreal to hear of his death only just a few days later. It's sad, for sure.
damn, i heard. luckily he is memorialized on here a d also the fact they memorialized him in the start of the kirby reanimated collab. also he got to talk to arin Hanson before he passed as dying wish( which is pretty sly and silly). even in death he made it positive by being able to talk to arin
this is very sad.
i knew his work and his awesome movies+art, but i didnt knew that he suffered from such a disease in his personal life.
R.I.P., he was a nice person who gave joy to the world with his art.
he will be missed.

The really amazing thing about Mikey is how he maintained a positive attitude and continued to create art and animation while fighting for his life. You can read his Twitter to see how brave he was up to the very end. There is a lot we could all learn from Mikey’s resolve.
Take some time today to enjoy Mikey’s work. Reflect on the people you love and think about what you could do to spread more joy. We should all aim to leave the world a little better than we found it.
It's always a tragedy to lose an artist, especially after all the hell he had to go through . . .
RIP mikey

it is always sad to see someone go but it is even more sad if it is a person people love
I hate to discover this stuff after he goes
Rest in peace, Mikey. You fought your battle long enough, and sometimes, you can't beat it in the end. But you were a damn good soldier.

i'm sorry to hear that he made good stuff here on NG Requiescat in pace Q_Q
RIP
I didn't know him too well, but he seemed to be a really cool person. It's always a shame when someone so young passes away.
RIP my dude! Sucks to hear another NG fam has pass on. I remember his work and have a few on favs list. You will be miss.

Wow that is so sad that AngelXMikey just died, well I didn’t check much of his work years ago. But wow he just survived the double lung transplant. I’m very impressed by reading this fact. It’s sad to hear the news that he passed away… At most, he loved on what he did during his life-time, against the odds. God rest his soul…
Man this is really sad news to hear, Losing somebody close to you is hard to deal with.
Came for the dick jokes, stayed for the pals I made.
Yes I think suicide is funny and I am sick of pretending its not.

That's really sad.
He was a cool dude, may he rest in peace.
nothing here tho.

I'm just going to leave this here as a testament to your superior tastes.

So a Kitty Krew submission & the lowest scored spam submission on that list meet your approval, but not Dr. Mario. Truly, you have very high standards.
