It's with a heavy heart that I heard the news today of my good friend's passing. Marinus Palland was a beloved member of our forum and will be missed. :cry:

Rest in peace, Marinus.
I'm sad to see another member of the forum pass away, even though I wasn't here last time.
Thank you, Mark, for telling us. :(

Oh dear... :( I remember him being quite a funny person, too.

If you don't mind me asking, do you know what happened?

I remember responding to Marinus' posts occasionally when I was making levels for Return to Wonderland, although I never got to know him very well.

Hopefully he has a good place in heaven.

It was the user "Shorty" who joined around the time the forum was started. I never got to talk to her, but she seemed like a very nice person. :)

Patrick has a page for her on the Midnight Synergy site by clicking here, and there is also the level "Remembering Shorty" in WA:MOFI.

If you bothered to copy and paste this signature, or zoom in, to make it possible to read, then I wasted 5-10 seconds of your life.

In her email, his sister did not say what happened, only that he died last year. :(

So that's why he hasn't posted...

Rest in peace, Marinus. You will always be remembered.

Oh god, that's terrible news. I only saw some of Marinus's posts when I randomly browsed the RTW forum, but he seemed like a great guy.

Rest in Peace, and if there is Paradise somewhere... I hope you're there. :cry:

Hopefully MS will consider making a level in WA3 called "Remembering Marinus".

Yes, he was. I still enjoy his wonderful, witty sense of humor (which is so much more merciful and elegant than mine) and deeply respect his way of thinking.

At times I felt like we were strange minds that thought alike, since we could easily understand each other, but whenever we were on the same track of thought, he was one step ahead.

Rest in peace, Marinus. I'll miss you.
Rest in peace, Kym. I hardly knew ya.
Rest in peace, Marinus. A bright star, you were ahead of me on my own tracks of thought. I miss you.
