A sad day for us all.

RIP Very Sad Here

Didn't get the chance to know or talk with him.

It's sad to hear we've lost another ATS family member :-(

A sad day in deed, Masqua was one of a kind and a genuinely gifted artist. He was part of what made this site what it is, no question about it.

He was my friend and a purely decent human being in every way.

He stood for justice more than anyone I've ever known, but, always had a kind word and an open mind, he was a gem.

He is missed dearly and his family members are in my thoughts.

I really don't know what else to say.

What else is there to say? A marvelous human being will be missed.

I thought I'd share the painting he made for me back in 2007...

It's absolutely amazing in person.

My condolences, he was a shining example of what ATS is about.

A sad loss for us all.

Journey far and in peace, Masqua.

Masqua you are loved! Rest easy my friend.

One journey has to end before the next begins
Masqua will be missed here
Peace

A true loss.
We find immortality in the memories of our family and friends.. and the things we create. There is a piece of him in each of you who were close, his family and particularly his art. When we create, we display a reflection of our soul and being.




Dear Brother, kitsiikákomimmo.

I count my self as blessed to be able to say I met Masqua. We spent a day breaking bread and just talking about the world.

Rest in Peace old boy. Our country and the world is truly a little darker for having lost such a kind heart.

Rest in peace, Tony.

Deep condolences to those in need, and may he rest in peace

RIP Friend.

This is staggering.

He was a mentor, a rock, an example. He was the best of us. What members can't know is how he held fellow staffers to account, he pushed us always to strive to be our best. For ATS, the ideal. To protect it from the capricious folly of everything the internet can come up with. To be more. To be better. To be shrewd. To be rigorous. But most of all - to have heart, integrity and soul.

He is legendary.

My condolences to his family. Words really can't express my sadness for their tremendous loss.

And to Masqua, my gratitude and vow to do better for ATS.

My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends and fellow Mods.
Rest In Peace.

I'll miss youTony,someplace else just got greater with your presence.

Wow....wasn't ready for this.
Ouch.

RIP. He will be missed.

I remember the name but not the person. Seems I also missed a great human.

Condolences to those who knew him and his family and friends.

Prayers to his Family and Friends. He was a talented and accomplished Artist. Imagine what he will do with the rainbows in the sky...they are already special but even more so now with the touch of his brush.
