I am simply re-posting this here for those who didn't read GLBs original post over on MFG

As some of you may know IRL I am Tamez(long time MFG user)'s brother in law. Tamez woke up not feeling well this morning and collapsed in the bathroom. We called 911 and he was pronounced dead shortly thereafter. He had a brain aneurysm that was too heavy and completely shut his brain down and he is no longer with us.
I know he would've wanted me to post here and let all of his friends know. Even though we're all only connected through a screen we've made some real life friends here.
RIP Tamez
I'm not the type of person to ask for help, just because i always try and take care of it myself. But this time it's a little hard, the funds medically and the funeral arrangements are going to be so expensive. The life insurance that's being received isn't going to suffice most of it. I've picked up overtime these few weeks to try and cover a fraction of it but i'm at a loss, I decided to start a GoFundMe. Any and every donation would be appreciated.

Some of you knew him via his hilarious sig with the "mugen janitor guy" over on MFG
Some of you maybe knew him from his twitch streams
I personally knew him from Club Syndicate/CS-Xtreme forums/PhantomGs from many years ago
Tamez was one of the inspirations that got myself and many others into advanced stage creation many MANY years ago, and I am sure that would be the same for many more of the other old/retired NAM members too.
May his memory live on in what he left us.
