I just came by because I randomly clicked on an image in my "Random From Favorites"
I don't know how I missed this, how I didn't realise it had been so long since I'd seen something from you in my inbox. I'm always running behind on catching up.
I... I have a "karanua" folder in my Favourites and I didn't quite notice that I haven't had anything to add to it in years.
This keeps happening.
I hope that wherever your soul is, it's having a good time.
Rest In Peace.
god I'm terrible at these

Good bye, my dear friend.
I miss our long conversations.

Based on the comments here, I think he died on dA's 12th birthday, or earlier than that.
May he rest in peace, even though I just knew about this today.

I can't believe it. I'd been away so long, I didn't even know. You'd always been a great individual off of whom to bounce ideas. I'm hardly expressing any original sentiments, but I mean it when I concur that you'll be missed.

God bless you, sir.
I never knew of you until this very moment.
Your work is beautiful. I pray you will enjoy beauty that makes pale our greatest dreams.
Thank you so much for bringing so much beauty into this world.
Sincerely,
Randy Nugent

I've passed by this page and this gallery many times in the past few weeks, but you know how life is. A quick browse through the wonderful art, fave and move on.
Never did I realise until now that we had lost such a talented individual, more shame on me.
I hope this gallery and its contents act as a legacy to a brave man with talent I can only hope to emulate.
Clear skies, Dave.

Dave,
Just signed up to say goodbye.
We use to hang out when we were young; but lost touch in the early 90s.
I can't begin to comprehend what you went through in the last few years. Puts any woes I may think I have in perspective...
You've left a legacy on this site - and our works that survive us make us immortal.

CJ. If you're able to read this, I want you to know that you have my most sincerest condolences. No words can paint a greater picture on how great David was as a individual, a father, and a husband. I know losing Danny was hard on you. They were both a big part in your life as much as you were in theirs. But if that other side exists, at least now his father is there by his side.
Losing a loved one is difficult. Losing another is unheard of. But it's important that you stay strong. Never give up on the road ahead of you.
Best of wishes to you.

David. For the short amount of time that I've known you, you have been a kind and generous individual. Extremely blunt and straight-forward, but honest. You've certainly inspired me to pursue my dreams with more motivation than I use to.
I really wish I could've met you and Danny in person. Maybe one day I'll see you on the other side if such a place exists. May you be at peace with your son and father.
Rest easy, Dave.

May you Rest in Peace.

Oh no. I am always saddened when DEATH is greater than the artist. When an artist dies, the whole world is diminished. Requiescat In Pace.

I haven't been able to keep up with dA this fall as well as I would like to, and I just came by to see how David aka =karanua was doing. How did you find out he passed away? Please let me know. Thank you

Another quote for you friend...
"He's not really dead, as long as we remember him." If that is true, you will live forever!
Sweet rest, David.

What?! He just commented on a recent piece of mine recently too. I knew he was struggling with his health, but damn. I did enjoy his presence here, a standup guy.

After to read the post by DrOfDemonology, I had the confirmation of what I never desired to have. Dave has gone, this time forever... Rest in peace my friend. You have been an inspiration for us all. You will be missed Dave.
Thank you for your kindness, your determination, your friendship.

The stars grow a little dimmer tonight. I only hope you found some rest from the pain. You will be missed Dave. You were truly an inspiration.

Farewell good sir. You were a hell of an artist, and will be sorely missed.
Fitting, perhaps, that I leave this Star Trek quote for you, as you set your own course to the final frontier, one last time.
Sulu: "What course, sir?"
Kirk: "Second star to the right...and straight on till morning."
