Red Like Roses - A tribute to Monty Oum

Description

Normally I'm not one to get worked up over the deaths of people I've never met, but yesterday after Roosterteeth imparted that their own Monty Oum had tragically passed away after an allergic reaction to a medical procedure, I found myself genuinely saddened. I was never even that huge of a fan of his works, but I found it impossible not to admire him anyway, for everything he did seemed to just ooze with passion and creativity. In a couple ways he was similar to me, I heard he'd always have several projects going at once, and sometimes be thinking years in advance - I do the same thing, but the difference is he actually could work hard and get all that stuff done, and for that he was a great inspiration to me. On top of everything else, he seemed like a great and fun guy from what relatively little we got to see and hear of him on the podcast and in videos, and he was married just last year. It's a shame that someone so ambitious and hard working was taken so early, and that many, if not most, of his dreams will never come to fruition.

Godspeed Mr. Oum, and many prayers for your family.
