Man.. I knew he was going through some rough things...terrible loss.  I do recall his DA art and talking with him about eBay deals, seems he was always here.

I am.......saddened.  Lewis was like a friend of mine off the forum via FB.   

And im heart broken i did not see this news sooner.....

He wanted me to do something, before his passing, (he thoght he would not make it past March) but the messages are lost.


So in other words i feel guilty

Im sorry everyone :'(

I am in shock and mourn for our valued long-time member.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
Although he had challenging health issues himself, and his sister just recently had passed away, too, he never stopped encouraging and uplifting others. 
He obviously had many battles to fight and yet he always found time and energy for the passion we share.
He definitely was a warrior of the light.
May he rest in peace :'(

I'm saddened to read this. I had only a slight personal contact with him. I bought a couple of second hand Carnegies from him years ago when I started collecting. But he's been a constant presence here in my years on the forum. All too young to go. After such a challenging life in his later years, may he rest in peace.

This is a tragic news... I was so convinced that he would pull through that unfortunate period.
Will also keep in my memory his few kind words to me.

Thank you and RIP EmperorDinobot.

Very sorry to hear this sad news.

He'd clearly been struggling with ill health for many years and it was very sad too to hear about his beloved sister last year.

He was always very supportive of others though and a real positive stalwart of our community.

Rest in peace Emperor Dinobot.

Nehalennia

My condolences to everyone affected and involved. Take care.

Very sad news. I didn't know him, but from reading his posts it's clear that he was suffering a lot. Hopefully at least he is at peace now.
One day we will know the truth about Spinosaurus... but not today.

AcryAllo

This is dreadful news... My condolences to his family and friends...
Never knew him but I've read his blogs on the DTB...

Monkeysaurus

I didn't know him but he clearly meant a lot to everyone here. RIP good sir
Just because I have a short attention span doesn't mean

I never find the proper words for these situations, but life works in strange ways...

Thank you for sharing part of your life time with us, Emperor Dinobot.

RIP

Did not know Emperor Dinobot much nor was I around during the early days of the forum, but it is very heart wrenching to learn about his passing, R.I.P. My sincerest condolences and sympathies to his family, friends and other acquaintances. From what I've read, he was going through very tough times with the passing of his sister and his worsening health, but although the tough times he's been in, he seemed to always be optimistic and was a very likable and supportive member of the forum. At least his suffering has come to an end now.

I remember reserving the Mattel Dino Trackers Indoraptor to review and he wanted to learn about the interesting backstory of how I got it, but sadly, I couldn't write the review in time. I'll put in a dedication for him in this review.

I'm deeply saddened for this. He really had a terrible time before, I feel that's very tragic and unfair, all the struggles he went through, I don't even know what to say.
I've been very intermittent in my presence here and sometimes I read about his health problems but I thought I was already late to say something and also it was so much he was going through that I didn't know what to say, we did interact a bit in the health issues thread before but I wish I said something more.

Now he is not suffering anymore but I wish strength for his family in this difficult time. He will be missed here.

Timor mortis conturbat me  :(

I remember selling him a few dinosaurs decades ago when I was still on eBay. Have not had any contacts since then, but this still strikes hard, like radman and Dan LoRusso.

May he rest in peace.

I know, it's like an axe-blow at the root of the tree of life. Inevitable, but ultimately unavoidable. It doesn't make a vast difference that one knows it's coming, the shock is still there.
