Oh god that's awful. What a horrible way to go. My condolences to his family and friends as this must be a nightmare to have such a horrifying accident take a loved one away from them.

I didn't know he existed until this but after reading about him this is some really unfortunate news. He brought a lot of soul into the art and he will certainly be missed. It's really horrifying to hear about the circumstances surrounding his death and his daughter being there to witness it. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

He will be missed and thankfully we will all appreciate his work long after his untimely demise.

I thought this had to be some kind of joke.

That's really sad. Condolences to the family (especially the daughter damn).

Saw this on the news. Horribly sad. It was windy as hell that day, the trees outside my window looked like they were about to blow over.

Horrible news. RIP. You don't hear his name that often, but he was in charge of a lot of the English logos - games, TCG, and anime.

Whoa wait, this is the guy that made the local news on the Seward Park death? Pretty interesting, the media never mentioned who he was or what his occupation was, just someone that he was victim to the wind storm we just had.

RIP.
Thank you for directing the artwork of my favourite series. All my thoughts for the family, I have no idea what they could be going through.

Condolences to his family.

Saw the report about how he was with a kid when the accident hit both of them. Hope the child is doing alright.

Shivers down my spine when I learn in the video that his daughter was in the car... This is heartbreaking. All my fears materialised. A random accident with no escape with family in danger. Hope his daughter will be alright. Rest in peace.

People should stop referencing data that makes me feel uncomfortable because games get ported to platforms I don't like
Woah for a second there I thought I read TCG but even so this is one messed up way to go. RIP
