    I hate cancer. It takes away people - family, friends, acquaintances, and some we will never know. It takes them in their prime or as they are approaching their prime. Bisonator showed his skill through his artwork. I saw a man who had and showed his potential. He was perfect to be the hit animator because of his skill and his stories / experiences. Frankly, we were robbed.

    As I reflect, I remember a person who wore his heart on his sleeve, a man who would speak then think, a fan who wanted and demanded perfection. In other words, he was the ultimate Bisonville poster.

    Yes, I will miss his posts. Even more, we should all miss what he would have brought to the world.

    I am kind of shocked to hear this news. Last I heard on here I thought he would pull through with the cancer.... I never knew him in person but he seemed like a very passionate artist and bison fan..... RIP

    I thought the Bisonator had some interesting posts that were worthy of food for thought. I'd like to add my condolences as well.
