Steemit Has Become A Community - We Feel Each Other's Pain
I just received news that one of our #newbieresteemday leaders (and my steemit brother) @deliberator has lost his best friend in life. He has done so much for us all over the past 3 months, that his presence here will be truly missed.

Steemit for me has been a place that has brought together a very large group of people for me to meet, get to know, and learn from. Through my daily interactions, I have gotten to respect the hell out of many for both their efforts and their generous spirits. Delib has been one of the many that has stood out, and he has been my friend since the moment we first connected.
I am saddened at the news of his loss. And I will miss him as he tends to his life's affairs.

I know many of you will agree with me, so I wanted to send a post to let you know that we might not be seeing as much of our favorite friend as we have gotten used to over the past few months. He has a daughter that needs him more than ever, and he will of course be grieving. He has informed me that his time Here will be limited, and asked me to convey that to you all, and I am.

I know that many of you would like to know what has happened, so I am sending this post to reach my followers and I will also tag people too (in hopes that they see it in this way too).
So I will tag some of "originals" here and help get the message out, so that everyone can understand his situation. I would ask that if you see someone not on the list that you think would like to know, to please spread the word and tag them in the comment section too.

I am unbelievably saddened by this news Dave.
Daz, if you read this, please know that you and your daughter are in my heart and I wish that I could reach across the continent and help you in some way. There are no words that I can offer that would help ease your pain right now; just please know that I'm here and am hoping for peace and solace for you and your daughter during what must be a truly horrible time.
Of course you will be missed here, but you're true commitment is to your family now. Sending lots of love your way.
I just heard this news from bashadow, not sure why I never received a notification, but if there is anything I can do to help in any way, please do not hesitate to ask! I truly hope @deliberator is doing ok in this awful time. Prayers and positivity going out to him and his daughter! Thank you @davemccoy for keeping us informed!
Shocked and saddened by this news.
appreciate the post. At a time when various winds seem to be pushing through the community of Steemit, causing unease and stress, it is good to realize that indeed, we are a community, and that we grow to love and care about each other. I mean, after all, what is more important? So, even though I do not know your friend I shall cast a prayer out on the winds and hope it reaches his heart.
I'm sorry to hear that. My condolences to the family. :(
