Dragoneer, owner of Fur Affinity, has passed away

I know we have a decently sized furry community here, so I thought it might be appropriate to make a thread about this. Dragoneer, known in the community mainly as the owner of Fur Affinity, passed away earlier today due to complications from a serious lung infection...

He was posting about his medical bills just hours ago - what a horrible reminder of how short life is and how cruel the American system is.FA often gets treated like a punchline or forgotten altogether but it's one of the bastions of the old internet that is still going strong. Dragoneer was involved in a VR Pokefurs community I'm in and I'd chatted with him a few times but never as much as I wanted to, and even saw him at our parties in VRChat a few months ago before he got too sick to do social stuff like that. Doesn't help that another significant figure passed away earlier this year apparently (I unfortunately forget the name), but this must be very rough for the furry community to lose two people months apart that have been leveraging them one way or another.
