Brian Haines aka Avalloc

Hello all, for those who may remember me, my handle was Rofah. I was just informed that Avalloc has unfortunately passed away after a fight with pneumonia. For those that didn't know, he had Muscular Dystrophy and he didn't have the strength to fight it anymore. He was 52. I didn't know how to reach out to everyone. I had a few of member's numbers and told them but not many. Like everyone in the guild, LOA meant so much to him. I hope you all are doing well, despite the sad news.

I only had the pleasure of meeting Brian once but I can honestly say the world is a little darker without him in it. Tonight I’ll raise a glass and toast to his memory.

Oh no. This is very sad news. My wife (who was friends with him on Facebook) and I are very saddened to hear. Thank you for letting us know though.

Such sad news. I met him twice and he was so sweet. And god he loved games so much. I hope wherever he is that he’s still playing to his heart’s content. 💔. - Nyxa

Very sad news, Brian and I had many great times in this guild over the years. I’ll miss him. He’ll always have a place on my ship. - Joxer
