Farewell

[Lida93]

Without giving away too much personal info, I have a chronic disease. I've had this disease for a decade and have had a lot of treatment for it, but it is winning. I likely only have a few months left. And so, I bid you all farewell. I'll be spending as much of my remaining time as possible with my family. In a week or two, once this thread has run its course, I'll ask theymos to lock this account.

Leo

May the grace of the Almighty work out a miracle to your health recovery. Just know you're not alone in this, having you in prayers believing something positive is possible for you.

Keep faith alive Leo!

I am really very sad to hear about your condition Leo and you have a very dangerous ill. Your strength and resilience throughout your battle with your chronic illness are commendable And you take a very good and remaining days of your life to spend precious moments with your family member this is a testament to importance of love and connection. While our interactions are virtual your presence has been felt and I appreciate your effort in Bitcointalk forum and also your knowledge and experiences you have shared with us. Wishing you peace, comfort and warmth of family in these challenging times. I hope a miracle happens and this illness leaves your life and you come back to this forum. Take a farewell for now.

I have learnt a lot from many of you, and I hope many of you have learnt something from me. Although we will never meet, I would have loved to share a beer with many of you, and I hope you'll remember me fondly.

@Leo, I am concerned and sad to hear this, you remind me of the illness that @Bruno suffered several years ago, so that he is gone until now, this is a bitter ordeal for the family and friends here to hear this news.

I can only pray for you @Leo, to get a miracle from God for you, for the illness you are suffering from, I hope you can survive longer in this world and also here, This is very sad news that I have heard for the umpteenth time from members here who are fighting for the disease they are suffering from, I apologize if I have hurt and offended you while here.

Regards.

It is very hard to believe this. I was thinking it to be a joke when I saw the headings of this thread not until I opened it and found it to be a reality. It is sad to hear this sir. You are a rare gem worth having here. This platform still needs you to be around for a while and your input as well. Stay strong and you will be fine sir.

[Cantsay]

First time getting to know that your name is Leo.

During my first few days in Bitcointalk, your account was one of my favourite place where I got to know a lot about bitcoin - your writing style, your use of words and how you approach problems here in the forum was what captivated me.

I believe this thread is evidence enough that you’ve a great reputation – reading through the replies made on this thread and seeing how other reputable forum members praised your stay and everything you have done tells us only one thing, @Leo was a legend.

I hope your remaining days with your family is going to be great, Bitcointalk will miss you.

the forum will lose a gentleman.

You have always been very kind and informative in your comments.

All the best for you and your family.

[teamsherry]

I could not have any dialogue between us since I am new here but it will be very bad if I should skip this thread without saying something. Many members already saying good and superb characteristics which you portrait, I feel if truly you will leave then your absence will be greatly felt, might be gone but not forgotten.

[HelliumZ]

I am really sad to read your post and I have no words to comfort you. And since few days you will not be seen active in this forum anymore and we will always miss you in the forum. It really breaks my heart to think that we won't be able to learn from you in this forum anymore. We are losing some valuable people from the forum day by day. We will never forget your contribution.

[m2017]

What, did you all conspire to leave here? One after another, the great and famous bitcointalk's personalities, who left an invaluable contribution here, say goodbye to the BTC-community. Such events can't but upset and make the forum poorer in terms of intellectual human capital. It can't even be a consolation that other significant users will take the place of those who left, although this is the natural cycle of events in the world.

Enjoy the time you have left. Wave goodbye to @o_e_l_e_o.

[Yogee]

I was thinking you're only leaving because of a lighter reason when I read the title. I never thought I would read a post like this from you. Thank you for all your contribution to the forum. You've shared a lot of knowledge here and I'm one of the benefactors of that.
I wish you and your family all the best!

I am not always happy to see this kind of post because it makes me feel bad, but that is how life is, people keep coming while people are going, you are indeed a legend, what make me recognise you are two, first his your username and you post, whenever I saw you post it attract me to read it because it is very educative, I have learned so many things with you, you may not know me, which is not the case, you will ever be remembered because of your legacy, which will continue to be helpful forever.

Oh man, so sorry to hear about this
I know we are not getting any younger and all of us will have to leave this place at some point, but saying farewell is never easy.
Spend your remaining time surrounded with your family and remember only the good times.
You certainly left the mark in bitcointalk forum.

[Sebas.tian]

So sad to hear this news in this new year man, well, if it's the will of God for you to leave us forever so shall it be man because that is where we are all going to, but if it's not the will of God, you will surely recover from that illness you thought you can't overcome in this month of January, I promise you that we will still see you again in this forum man and still do things together as usual.

[Don Pedro Dinero]

Hey Leo.

I remember that you registered on the forum after me, and at that time you already started to stand out. After I hadn't been on the forum for a while, I came back and I remember you sent me a private message to welcome me. By then you had already become one of the best posters on the forum.

I wish you had made this up for privacy, as people have said, that privacy you've defended so much, but whether that's the case or not, we're all going to end up in the same place.

See you on the other side, my friend.

Leo, going through your post makes me heartbroken 💔, I am one person that believes in miracles and the awesomeness of God, I believe you should keep hope Alive this period, we will continue to hope and pray that you surmount this illness and come back stronger and better.
You are one person we've learnt a lot from in this forum, and I believe physically too you will also be an amazing personality. I'm hopeful that you  and your family will come out of this successfully without hitches.

[tabas]

I can't believe it, this month hasn't ended yet and we've got this bad news. No, Leo, a lot of us have learned from you. Please spend your time with your family and how I wish that your disease can be healed instantly, praying still for every good thing not just for you but also for your family. We may not know each other personally but that's all what we can do for you now and that's to pray. I still can't believe that this is happening and real.  
Farewell, Leo and see you in the sweet by and by.

[komisariatku]

I was sad when the forum banned the mixer campaign, but the news from you is much sadder. We will lose a figure who made a great contribution, and that is a deep wound. Maybe we've never met but we know you well from your writing.

The forum is more colorful because of you, thank you for the knowledge you share with us. That is kindness and as far as I know, kindness is rewarded with kindness. May you always be happy wherever you are. You are always with us and maybe we will tell about you to new members of this forum, you are a legend that we will remember forever.

Farewell GOAT bitcointalk, but I'd rather say welcome back, I hope you will say it someday

[o_e_l_e_o]

Thank you everyone for all the kind comments. It is pleasing to know that so many people learned things from my ramblings.

When I read through your profile and some of your posts, I wondered how long this user had been in bitcoin to have acquired this level of knowledge. Is he one of the Bitcoin developers?

You flatter me. Although as I've said before, my coding skills are very average and nowhere near the level needed to be a dev.

I am sure you are also a treasure for the people that know who you are in real life.

Heh. My wife might have a comment or two to make about that...

Bro, I hope you're lying for some anonymity or other kind of reason and that you're not terminally ill.

If I was disappearing for privacy reasons, I hope I'd come up with a much more glamorous story. Or you know, just actually disappear without a trace like Satoshi did.

Damn, this sucks

Look on the bright side: Less competition for the top merit spot!

[avp2306]

Really bad news to hear a valuable forum member is posting good bye here. This is heart breaking day in forum especially you have a lot of contribution made here and for sure there's a lot of people learn a lot from learnings you share here.

I do hope theymos will create a hall of fame thread or section to post those names of current legends departed or still alive to honor their contribution and also for them to be remember by a lot of people learn a lot thru their knowledge or legacy they imprint in this forum.

[EluguHcman]

Infinite remarkable memories of you would ever be on replay with us Sir, while the velocity of this heartbreaking rumours of you has indeed got me frozen with a whole lot of depressions of keep pushing.
Of course, there had been lot of thoughts that pleasures and treasures are lif but wt this point of time, i would indeed relate verily to the words that says... "Vanity upon vanity", tensed, " there is time for everything" but yet, I can't say a Farewell to this quest while I hope on miracle healing and wonders.
However, stay positively minded Sir while we considers to gather courages above all. You are a great man.
