So very sorry to hear this.
My first thought “This must be a joke. I wonder what Auto did to piss someone off.” Then I realized this wasn’t a Pit thread. I still can’t believe it.
Shocking is too mild a word. My hands are shaking.
My condolences to Auto’s family and close friends. There are no words to help with the loss of such a young and beloved man.
Words fail.
Aw crap!
Whenever I saw his posts I stopped to read them. So young, I am stunned.
Horrible news. 
Condolences to his family.
Please find out that this is a joke. 
He was one of the posters who I always check out their posts.
Too young to die.
I’m speechless. 
Oh this is such awful news. God bless him, he was a sweet, good guy. I’ll miss him.
Such sad news. My thoughts go out to his family.
Holy shit!!! 
Like others, I was hoping that this was some kind of a joke. His posts were generally funny. Sweet with the perfect ratio of smartass to them. He was one online late when we both worked evenings.
I’ll miss you Autolycus.
Please do keep us posted, tdn.
WTFO? I never can think of what to say in these kinds of threads (nothing ever seems remotely appropriate or equal to the situation, so I typically stay silent), but he and I have had a few laughs over the years. Jeez man…
Fuck.
WTH? What??!!
I am seriously stunned. I genuinely liked him, and read his posts with interest, oh this is awful.
I am really hoping it’s a mistake/sick joke.
I’m so saddened to hear this.
My thoughts go out to his friends and family. Such sad, sad news.
I’m very sad to hear this. He seemed like a nice guy and he was WAY too young to go 
I hope wherever he is, he’s happy and at peace.
I hope this isn’t true.
What happened? 
I promise to. But I’m getting nothing. I read one wall post, and there was no followup. And nothing from his dad.
I keep thinking about his parents. Such lovely people. We shared many meals together, rode the train together, laughed together. They gave me an open invitation to stay at their house in Florida. They don’t deserve this shit.
My condolences to the family. 
What did the wall post say?
