Another tribute to cheers.
Dan, most commonly known here as Cheers or CheersTC died on September 13 in his sleep, he was one of the nicest and most wholesome forum members out there, but we lost him to cancer at the young age of 19.
We found out a few months ago that he was battling cancer, and was going through a downward spiral in life.
Before I was banned temporarily from the forums, I got to know him, and me and a bunch of other friends, @Respectfulnancymain @GoodBoyKaru @NoOneKnowsNova Laura and others did swf and custom matches with him, and I have to say, it was the most fun I have ever had in dbd. He was an amazing, funny, and kindhearted human who didn't deserve this, especially at such a young age.
Karu told me today that he died, and it was so sudden, I was speechless.
You all might have seen that a bunch of us changed our pfp to WGLF, hope etc. This was all because of cheers, and his legacy. I am here to pay my respects to him.
Karu was also cheers' boyfriend, and he is going through a lot right now as well, so if you can, try and comfort him, he is extremely depressed and heartbroken right now. But I want to let you all know, that he will carry on, even if he has died, I will always remember him.
Now, to everyone who was aware of the situation, I will tag you @Todgeweiht @bubbabrotha @Dabihwow @azame @Unicorn @Endstille @Elena @MandyTalk @Aneurysm @Demonl3y
Oh yeah, don't think I forgot about you cancer. ######### cancer.

Don't forget about @SCP_FOR_DBD and @Cornpopers_Evan; they were in it too.
He was truly one of the best people I knew, in fact I know. I love him so much, still, and I miss everything about him. Every single thing.
He was one of the only people who could make survivor genuinely fun, and I didn't even need to voice call for it.
He didn't deserve this. Nobody does. He deserved the best and was shat on by life over and over.
I hope he'll be remembered; in fact no, I'll make sure of it. For as long as I'm on this forum I'll make sure he won't be forgotten.
And if anyone is going through some #########, remember, you're not alone. People can, and will support you. Don't do anything stupid.
Please quote that advice against me if I need it.
Cheers, Dan, you were such an amazing person. Wherever you are, I hope you're happy. I can't wait to see you again.

Thanks for quoting them karu, if you find anymore people, make sure to tag them as well.

This has touched me. I wish you guys well from the bottom of my heart. Rest in Peace.

I'm so sorry @GoodBoyKaru :(
The rest of you too 💗 hope everyone is as ok as you can be.
7 -
I think there was @sad_killer_main and @ZtarShot too.
But seriously, I think "heartbroken" is an understatement (the depressed part, not so much).
5 -
He may be gone, but he will not be forgotten. We'll make damn sure of that. I can't wait for the day when we can officially say cancer is eradicated from this world.
6 -
I'm sorry guys. Rest in peace Dan.
6 -
I wouldn't say ok but I'm still living. Been almost half a day and I ain't let the depression take over yet.
5 -
This is really sad. I don’t think I ever spoke to him but I remember seeing his username when I used to lurk around the forums before making an account. He did seem like a really sweet / helpful person from what I saw.
Cancer is an awful thing to experience and see people you love struggle with. I lost my mum to it when I was 9 and my sister died from it late last year. I hope you are all coping as well as you can and remember that it’s important that you all stick together during times like this. You can be strong for each other. xx
6 -
Well, I never really got to know him, but he seemed like a really nice person. All I can do is wish the best for his relatives.
@GoodBoyKaru I cant even imagine the amount of grief you must be experiencing right now man, especially because that accompanied him until the last of his days. I hope you are able to heal from this terrible loss, remember Cheers for what he was and not for what happened to him.
@Cheers Rest in peace dude, wherever you are,
6 -
I'm lost for words after reading this, I never new him but it still makes me so sad and I really wish I could've got to be his friend. May he rest in peace <3 :c
6 -
I hope you can rest well knowing people care for you Dan.
You will be missed.
Sorry @GoodBoyKaru ik you need it the most.

I’m sorry to hear this; my deepest sympathies to everyone who knew him and is grieving his loss. 💕

I am so sorry..
I hope eversone else will be fine now..
No one deserves cancer. :(

I’m really sorry for the loss of Cheers, I didn’t know him well but he sounded like an Angel! This shouldn’t happen to anyone, [BAD WORD] cancer!
9 -
I’m so sorry to hear this you guys, I may have had very little interaction with him but the little I did, it was always a positive one and I’ve always seen some great conversation and yet again, it was always nice. @GoodBoyKaru, if you’d like someone to talk with, I’m here but I truly am sorry for your loss.
Biggest and best wishes to you, his family and anyone else associated with him. RIP Cheers, you will be deeply missed.
4 -
I can confirm, he was an angel. Such an amazing person.
5 -
Although I never really knew him or talked to him for that matter he was such a good person. While I know it's a very sad time. I have been raised with thinking of the good times too. I hope there are enough good memories to eventually drown out the depression of losing someone.
4 -
My grandmother has gone through cancer twice. Luckily, she survived both encounters and is still alive and well today, but I know that rush of anxiety and worry. I'm sorry @GoodBoyKaru for what you had to go through, and I hope you feel better.
6 -
Thank you for letting me know @GoodBoyKaru I am very, very sorry for your loss, I know how it feels man. But listen, don't give up on your life, Dan wouldn't want that, i hope you find love again, look if you need us I will bring the whole ######### community, mods, devs, everyone I can get a hold to be there to comfort you, because this ######### should be something no one endures alone in a time where everyone feels just that, alone. just know we are here to lift you back up on your feet and we won't stop until you can laugh, and smile again.

Thank you for the tag, also thank you for the update.
I am sorry, i wish things were diffrent. My deepest condolences to you, your family and dan's family. I know everything sucks at the moment, it will get a little bit easier with time.
I hope you find the strength to carry on, should you ever be in need to talk with somebody, you can always send me a message and it doesn't have to be on forums you are welcome to add me discord/skype/steam whatever you like.
5 -
I haven’t been on the forums as long as you guys have, so unfortunately I never got the opportunity to meet your awesome friend.
I jus wanted send hugs like everyone else, an also wanted to say,
We’re gonna get thru this, together.
From how you an others have honored Cheers in your words, I’m certain he wishes only peace an uplifting positivity over your heart an mind as you carry on. In how you passionately voiced your love, it’s clear that you would wanna stay strong for him, no matter what.
So... you’re going through some [real horrible stuff] rn... Remember, you're not alone.🧡
We can, and will support you
Don't do anything stupid. (!!!❣️)
(btw. I jus used the 🧡 ‘cause it’s supposed to mean care, comfort an serenity. Some ppl take those colors to represent many different feelings, so I thought I’d clarify the feelings I kno we all are wishing over you and everyone impacted rn)
one day at a time... Keep going.
🧡Blessings to everyone

Rest in Piece Dan, you were an amazing guy, both as someone to play with online or to hang with in real life.
You knew how to make people smile with ease and you don't deserve all the ######### you've gone through. Thanks for everything over the past few years.
5 -
And thank you Nova for keeping me updated and telling me all about him. It means a lot and I'm almost certain he's forgiven you.
3 -
What the ######### happened?
What?
Dude, #########. I'm so sorry......
3 -
So the short story, Cheers had cancer, it went south, he caught it too late. Me and him began talking because of it and we started dating on the 17th of August. He was amazing, best boyfriend I could've asked for, everything and more. He deserved the world. Yesterday I learned he'd passed away on 13th. Thanks to coronavirus, I couldn't go visit him to hold his hand and promise him I loved him.
And I don't want to ever forget a single thing he said or did. He's still one of the best people I know.
4 -
Jesus Christ, he was 19?
That's ######### depressing, I'm so sorry.
5 -
Yeah, 19. He would've been 20 this year. He deserved so much better than the ######### you he got.
3 -
I'm speachless
He was only 19? ######### ....
Fuck cancer :(
Rest in peace.
My condolences to everyone who knew him.

I'm sorry Karu about what you are going through. And what you have been going through. I saw a thread before where someone mentioned Dan(who was only written as Cheers) was struggling with cancer. You had posted in it, but I had no idea that Dan and you were together. I would have tried to send kind words your way as well.
I noticed avatar changes but didnt make a connection. Cause I'm dumb. I would have changed mine as well, even though I didnt know Dan.
I had no idea he was such a young man either. That makes it even more horrible and unfair. I hate that anyobe has to go through this but he hardly even got to live his life.
I'm really sad about this. I assumed it was an early find and he would fight for awhile then go into remission. I didnt think he would be actually gone away..this soon? I wasn't lying when I said I would pray for him. You guys, death is so scary to me. I feel so scared by it. I dont want to die and I dont want anyone else to die either(unless they are monsters.)
Just the other day I was thinking about asking if Dan would like some of my books to read while he recovers but thougjt no one wants to read my books and maybe was a bit embarrased (cause I read kinda girly book 😟) and never asked...but even though he was obviously bad off and probably couldnt have read them, I wish I had asked so he knew how many people were thinking about him.
I'm sorry Dan that you didnt make it. I hope the doctors were able to help with any pain or anxiety you felt. I hope your famiky friends and KAru were able to give you all the comfort you needed.
And Karu, man, I'm real sorry about you having lost someone so important to you. I've only lost grandparents in my time, so far. I cant imagine losing a boyfriend or husband..I just cant wrap my brain around the kind of grief you must be going through. I wish you werent going through this and I wish Dan hadnt gone through this.
I dont know what else to say I real sad for everyone of you guys who struggled alongside Dan.
4 -
I’ll never forget you Cheers.
You and Karu have the most beautiful relationship from what I can see & I’ll still be in support of you and Karu til the world ends 💜
Rest in Paradise you kind Angel 💜
Thank you for letting me be apart of this 🥺
You two are gifts from above.
4 -
can i just say to everyone, thank you for the kind words and support. losing him's been really rough but seeing everyone here means so much. sometimes i love this community. <3
11 -
Lost my granddad to cancer this year so I know the pain.
To all of you who are mourning, especially you @GoodBoyKaru , I wish you the strength to get through this hard time.
Nobody deserves to die at such a young age. Screw you, cancer.
7 -
I'm sorry for the news. Cheers was an amazing user and overall person. He didn't deserve the cards he was given. I hope he's happy wherever he may be.
9 -
This just happened
Thank you to @Peanits and @MandyTalk and the entire BHVR team. Thank you so much. I'm sure he appreciates this, wherever he is.
13 -
Thats reaaly nice. I didnt expect anything like this. Its very touching...
1 -
I've been staring at 'Leave a comment' for about five minutes now and I still don't know what to say. I'm at a loss for words. All I can think of is that I hope he knows peace now and that everyone who knew him and cared about him will be okay. ❤️
5 -
Where did you find this karu? I checked both of their profiles.
2 -
Again @GoodBoyKaru I am so sorry you had to go through this, let us as the community be there for you if you need us
3 -
On Cheers' profile. It's his pfp now.
3 -
Thanks, that's amazing, holy ######### he would love this.
3 -
He really really would. I hope he gets to see it one day
3 -
I'm not going to call the perk we're going to live forever anymore, I think it's cheers' perk. I'm only going to call it cheers now.
5 -
That's a really nice idea. Imma start too.
2 -
I am so sorry Karu. I can't imagine how it has to feel to lose someone that close and I hope I won't anytime soon. I must say that I was shocked when I first read this thread. I am usually there everyday but more passive by just reading stuff instead of writing but I recognize a lot of familiar names and that just shocked me.
Again, I am really sorry. It's maybe not the perfect thing to say but I am Christian and I am convinced that his Spirit is now with you and he'll go to the Light very soon, watching over you every day until you see eachother again I am very sure about that. Until then I hope your friends will watch over you, I am sure you met amazing people here in dbd as well who will watch over you.
I am not the best speaker for those situations but I am really sorry, but since he battled with cancer that much, I think it's more of a relief for him as well, think about it that way. He doesn't need to suffer anymore like he probably did. He is free now and waiting for you on the other side.
Best wishes from me Karu.
Sincerely, Daniel.
4 -
Been thinking a lot about all this for the past days yet I still don't know what to say. I didn't get to know Cheers but it seems like he was a really wholesome person. It's just not fair. I'm sorry for your loss @GoodBoyKaru
2 -
Yeah, he always seemed like a pretty chill dude in the forums. I made a just for fun thread once where I asked community members to decide my Killer. He asked me to do a Spirit I remember.
I am glad now that I did him a favour.
3 -
I'll never understand how he could find Spirit fun but I'm glad you did that for him. I'm sure it make him smile.
2 -
I'm no good with words, so I'll just say I'm sorry for everyone's loss, particularly @GoodBoyKaru, and ######### cancer.
