Foghladha.2506 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 The Gaiscioch Family regrets to inform the community that Findan.2439 has ascended to the great beyond. He lost his life after several years of battling organ failure after a tragic car accident that left him in a coma for several months back in Nov 2014. After he woke he spent the better part of a year in a hospital and finally was able to come home. Since then he was readmitted to the hospital several times and on February 12th 2018 he passed. It is with a heavy heart that we report the loss of this highly influential member of our community who lead over 240 public events for the players of Guild Wars 2 in his time commanding. These ranged from PvE to WvW events and always welcomed everyone to participate. [Here is the article](https://magazine.gaiscioch.com/articles/courage_and_kindness_hallmark_the_life_of_findan.html "Here is the article") we wrote to remember him. I know Findan connected with a whole lot of the Guild Wars 2 community and we wanted to include you all in his memorial.

X T D.6458 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I am very sorry about this loss...my condolences to his family, friends, and the GSCH family. I was privileged to have participated in many GSCH events in the past, and I adore these people for their energy and commitment in keeping their wonderful community together, as well as helping all players participate in the game. For these people to lose a member, it is like losing a part of the family. Always keep alive the memories of those that have passed...and this way they will never be truly gone.

eyelogix.1654 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Sorry for your loss, and it's sad to see someone go away. I would love to join in but I'm unsure if I'm working or home at my ex to visit my kid. But I hope it will be a great memorial! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xivor.8754 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I knew of Findan quite well, and was so excited to see him return after his accident. I know he didn't keep up the cadence on events like he used to, but knowing he was out of that coma was amazing and an answer to prayer back then. AS much as it saddens me to see this new news, I am happy to know that he was able to share his life with his family and friends for at least a good few more years. I miss him already; when I was on SoR, he was someone I interacted with quite often. One thing about Findan, is you weren't just a person in his party or squad; you were a person. Period. He interacted with you on a genuine, empathetic level, and I loved this about him. You are surely missed, but never forgotten, brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doxie Lover.5172 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 The first time I went into wvw, it was people yelling non-stop, and it really stressed me out. Then a friend suggested I try running with Findan. Wow, he was so awesome. He was about teaching us and trying to make us better players vs. about winning a single match. We would get slaughtered and he would very calmly say, "good job, let's re-spawn". I learned so much about seize, builds, playing as a team, and most importantly, how a great commander leads. He was calm, smart, funny and a genuinely nice person. I am sincerely upset by this news. It is interesting how someone you will never meet in person does have an impact on your life, and their loss is felt, literally, around the world. Wishing you peace on your new journey, Findan. Good Hunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yulan.4069 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Findan was the one responsible for some of the most memorable moments I've ever had in Guild Wars 2! It was always a pleasure to see his tag up in the Borderlands and do Gaiscioch events by his side. He'll surely be missed by many of us... Rest in peace, my friend.

Imspecial.3867 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Heaven has been given a perfect angel in every way ! Findan will always be in my heart, he has given me his friendship and love. There are so many words to describe this beautiful perfect man, he is all that is good in this world and in heaven! I will miss his conversation, his voice, which I still hear every day saying " Hello Darcy " . He was the first person to talk to my toddler granddaughter in comms , she would listen to him and smile, sometimes you didn't understand her words but Findan cared enough to give her his time! There are truly not enough words to describe the heartache of losing this wonderful person. To his Father, Sister, and Brother-in- law , we spoke of you often , he always had wonderful things to say about you. Tricia , you brought him love, joy , and peace ! Thank you for being there for him! There is a plan for all things that God does, we will not know this one till we meet Findan in Heaven! I love you dearly and will miss you my wonderful ,caring, amazing adopted brother of mine! Please have a jumping puzzle ready for me when I join you in Heaven , you will need a portal because I still will not be able to jump! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
