Thinking of you at this sad time.

I met Jamie "Moogh" Wiehl over 10 years ago in an online game. Although we never met in person, and although I was never successful in convincing him that cats were superior to cows in every way, Jamie was my friend, and I'll miss him dearly. Jamie had a great sense of humor, a vivid imagination, and an incredible way with words. The friendships he made were meaningful and fulfilling. My thoughts go out to his friends and family. Please know that in our little corner of the Internet, he was happy.

I talked to James almost every day, for eleven years. He leaves a void I'll notice daily.

I had known James for many years online, and he was a great friend throughout the years. I was saddened by the news, and my prayers will go to his family to help them through this time.

James was always a joy to converse with and spend time getting to know over the past 10 years. The world is a little less bright for his passing but the light of the pleasant memories he gave us all will remain with us.

I spent years getting to know James online. Despite never knowing him person he brought joy to my life daily. Condolences to the family and I hope you're finding the comfort you need in this terrible moment of loss.

I am so sorry for your loss. May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn," strengthen you during this difficult time. Isaiah 61:1, 2.
