His family may stand to benefit from that game that he owned? And more so than your donation amount if it were to succeed. Not sure what you're thinking. Whole point would be to benefit his family.

They may stand to benefit from it, if it releases and is profitable. That's a big if on both accounts.

Simple cremation only is less than 1k. At least in Florida. Thats with the death certificate and the rest of the misc.

Flower Arrangement in the form of a Fiery Avenger sounds like the best idea. Not anonymous, maybe a quote or saying from EQ or these forums that is meaningful.
Problem is funerals usually happen quickly so there isn't much time to coordinate, and getting a sword probably requires finding the nearest flower boutique and getting it started asap.
Donations to other causes can be left up to each individual.

Unless he had some kind of crazy contract I wouldn’t imagine his family stands to gain anything from the game. Even if it was out and making money, why would profits transfer to his family upon his death?
I am not saying it isn’t possible, I’ve just never heard of anything like that with such a small company that doesn’t even have a product yet.

He was not loaded anymore. When he stole the $45k from the original team in the beginning he took it all to pay personal debts because he was in such financial trouble.

Rest in peace. Thanks for creating a world I lived in for many years. Say hi to Keith Parkinson.
A Norwegian song of remembrance
Helvegen is a song about death, dying and remembering those who have passed. About crossing over and about letting go. It is a song about searching for lost songs and old traditions.
The Way to Hel
I sought the songs
I sent the songs
when the deepest well
offered drops so mighty
of Valfather’s pledge
I know it all, Odin
where you hid your eye
Who will sing me in the death-sleep
sing me when I walk the road to Hel
and the tracks I tread are cold, so cold
Early or in fading day
still the raven knows if I fall
When you stand by the gate of Hel
and when you must tear loose
follow you I shall
across the bridge of Gjöll with my song
You become free from the bonds that bind you
You are free from the bonds that bound you

As this is starting to sink through my unpleasant emotions defenses, I am feeling sad but also proud. This dude created and looked after a world, that so many lived in and got hooked on and made friends in. As the subheading for this forum says "the reason we are all here."
The day needs to become a yearly in-world holiday or memorial.
But meanwhile, Aradune has been gm teleported to that great null zone in the sky.

I’m thinking immediate assistance not some pipe dream video game that most likely won’t come out. I just spent close to 20k paying off my family members debts and funeral and real money >>> promise of a maybe.- 1

Brad was on the board of directors at VR and I presume he has a share in the company as is normal when you start something up. Any shares or investments Brad has in VR would pass over to whoever inherits them from him, probably his wife.
If they make a profit off the game, his family would see coin, no way Brad didn't have some kind of legal paperwork for a business he's put the last 6 years into.

Someone of mine died 2 years ago. In the Orlando area and the cremation was $750.00
