@Blue Star was one of the first members to make me feel very welcomed when I returned to the forum. I admired him to a very high extent. I enjoyed talking about music with him, If anyone on the forum knows me even on a casual level in the context of it, that individual should definitely know that I love music; music is a central part of my life. I am constantly posting musical links in the public chat, and talking about music with other members, on and beyond the forum. I can listen to music for hours in a day, and I usually do not go a day without listening to some music. I also enjoy playing keyboard instruments, especially pianoforti.
@Blue Star had an extraordinary love for music, too. It was fascinating to meet another member of the forum whose passion for music was incredible as well. He was actually my "first" "musical buddy" on the forum before I met many of my other "musical buddies" on it. I had a strong bond with him, but during the last few months, I noticed that he was not online as much as he was last year (or I did not see his profile active in the chat as much when I was online). It is shocking to know that he has passed away. I was looking forward to talking about music more with him.
I also admired him, because he was willing to spend much time with me to give me support and advice, and hence not all of our conversations were about music. His conversations with me were not shallow; when he gave me support and advice, he was deeply invested in assisting me. He was one of the most congenial, kind and respectful members whom I have met on the forum. I had never witnessed his being intentionally discourteous or harsh to any member, and on this forum, that is most certainly a rarity, because I witnessed even the most sweet of members sometimes behave in that fashion; however, not
@Blue Star, to the best of my knowledge, or of what I am cognizant. We talked about meeting each other personally one day, since we lived in the same state (Mod edit - user location) in the country of the United States of America. (I know that not every member is from my country, which explains why I was very, if not, unnecessarily specific, which I usually am.) Unfortunately, I will not be able to do so now, and that saddens me greatly. He will most definitely be missed, and he was (and still is) beloved on the forum. I have never heard anyone say anything negative about him. That, too, is a rarity. Furthermore, rest in paradise,
@Blue Star; you are well-liked by many here, including me.
