Taken from his steam profile.

"RIP Bertz (Bertie) - 06/06/1986-/05/04/2010

Bertz contracted pneumonia recently. He previously suffered from Muscular Dystrophy which weakens muscles and spent most of his life in a wheelchair. Online he was free from his worldly contraints and was a fun, friendly guy who loved a laugh.

Following contracting pneumonia, he was taken to Hospital and died aged just 23

Rest in peace buddy. "

###### dude i'm sorry to see you go you were always a nice dude who made plenty of people laugh.

GG'S and R.I.P.

    The man <a href="http://www.brywright.co.uk/ns/stats/classic/player.php?id=122&ps_sess_id=a92eeb6ab751a545fae8f87370014efd" target="_blank">loved slash</a> and had a <a href="http://www.yoclan.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4910" target="_blank">sense of humor</a>. MD is pretty horrible and my former boss's wife has MD. Kind of like how marijuana is a gateway drug for coke, MD is a gateway disease for something else that kills you.

    Such a shame to hear about this :( He was a likable lad and a good ambasador for the NS community, he loved NS.

    When he wasn't shouting racial abuse on YO Classic, he seemed pretty decent, but I barely remember him.

    RIP dude.

    We're pretty much down to the core players now who will never actually quit the game. NS will die when one by one we are picked off by nature I guess.

    RIP brother.

    Wow at how many people tried to make the news about themselves: "I never knew him but.."

    RIP Bertz, May you enjoy NS2 in the next life!

    In a thread dedicated to a deceased community member, you made a post with the point of starting an argument? I hope I'm misunderstanding something here.

    Can't say I knew Bertz, but it's clear he deserved a lot of respect just from the replies. Always a shame to see the good people die young.
