Ed i think brought out the best of those online and hopefully around him. He was very down to earth online and seemed to be a constant source of positivity he touched my heart and i know im very late in sending this but it makes me happy at the thought of him healthy and still as always positive in heaven with his family and cat. I hope the family know that no matter what Ed has immortalised himself online and through the thousands of hearts he has touched he truly made peoples days.

I didn't know him, never got a chance to watch his videos but I will do this sometime. I remember seeing Grian's mentioning of his passing. He sounds like he was a very kind person and a cool dude. My thoughts and prayers for his family and may he rest in peace.

TFC/Ed was like a virtual grandpa, of sorts, to me, possibly others as well, so seeing him play video games at his age was very cool to see, his laugh and jokes hit home most moments, always knew it was gonna be a good day when he uploaded, Rest easy Chef, may wherever you're at be the best

TFC was an amazing person, his videos always made me (and I'm sure many others) happy. He will be missed greatly by family, friends, fellow hermits and fans daily. RIP to a minecraft legend

His last video was the first video of his I ever watched. His humor was bright, and he talked about how he read every comment on his videos. I left one saying that it was my first watch, and that I was excited for what came next. I checked back at the end of the week to see if we were gifted with an upload. Needless to say, his death caught me off gaurd.

With the recent deaths the past summer, I’ve spent a lot of time in my head, thinking about it. We are all unlikely individuals to have entered this world. And for the briefest moments in the history of this universe, we were able to connect. And from that briefest of connections sent a wave of impact.

I’m happy I was able to see a glimpse of the community he made.

August 20, 2022

Thanks for being great in times of hardship. You were always there no matter what happened to anyone, even yourself. It was always great to see you on the server whenever you could and we will miss that forever. See you soon man.

Ed, TFC, loved the content you created in your unique way. you will be missed.

Jaedon

August 19, 2022

Even though I'm just a teen, i have loved watching all of TFC's videos for several years. He brought a very unique side to Hermitcraft and YouTube which i have really enjoyed. His funny, sarcastic, and very true-to-himself personality was always entertaining. He was always so strong through everything and managed to make me smile through tough times in my own life. I will greatly miss seeing his upload notifications come up on my phone but I'm glad for the opportunity to have found him and let his light into my life. Thank you very much, may you rest in peace, TFC.

Joseph Bowers

August 19, 2022

I know a lot of people writing on this have come from Hermitcraft, because that is what TFC is amazingly known for. He will be absolutely missed. I will miss his voice through the mic and the quirkiness of how he made his content. I have been following TFC's content creator journey for years now and I can say he was a spectacle that will shine bright forever. Thank you TFC, and goodbye.

Ed,so known as TFC, touched the hearts and inspired thousands, including myself. His content brought me a joy no one else could replicate. Rest in peace, TFC.

A man who touched the entire world. Showed that you are never too old to play and stream games. Always be true to yourself. Forever TFC will be kept alive in the hearts and minds of people all across the world. May he rest in peace now knowing he made a difference.

August 19, 2022

His loss will be felt keenly throughout the community. I hope he knew what a wide reach he had, how many lives he touched. Rest easy, TFC.

August 19, 2022

While many of us will only be able to remember Ed as TFC, he has made a legacy for himself and an impact on thousands under that name. For me, I will always love his content and remember him as someone to watch when everything was too much. I hope he knew how much he meant to us.

My condolences to the entire family on your loss.

Most Minecraft/Hermitcraft fans didn't get Tinfoil Chef and his style (both video & play), but TFC was my favorite Hermit. We had a lot in common by the way we liked to play Minecraft, our 'gripes' about Minecraft, to both being old and old school. His fans have been really protective of him through the years.

His death has really hit me hard and I never had the pleasure of meeting him; I cannot imagine the pain your family is going through. I have taken comfort in watching his older videos and remembering his wholesome laugh that always brightened my day and lessened my burdens. May all his fans make a branch mine to honor him.

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." - Matthew 5:4

Rest in Peace. Go with God.

Whenever I would feel overwhelmed and on the verge of an autism meltdown, id watch TFC. He was the one youtuber i knew about that would just play the game without yelling or goofy hijinks or whatever. He helped me so much and i just hope his family is okay.

August 18, 2022

Although I didn’t know him that well, I still am missing him. I found out about his passing when I had decided to start watching his videos, but I ended up being too late and now I miss him very much.

TFC, was and still is one of my greatest inspirations. I can't believe that he's gone. I will miss him. He reminded me of my granddad. I'm going to remember him for a long time

Heartlight

August 17, 2022

I cried when I heard. Here is someone I have never met, who has no idea who I am, but who touched me without my even knowing. I hope the outpouring of love is some solace to your family TFC. Thanks for being genuine and showing me how that is strength enough.

Jacob W

August 17, 2022

In a time a few years back after my grandfather passed, I found TFC's channel, and was reminded just how similar they were. Oh how I would have loved seeing my grandfather interact with minecraft. Truly, I had pure joy to have watched his videos. I had always wanted to go and watch the previous videos I hadn't seen yet, and now I want to even more. Rest in Peace,

Charles

August 17, 2022

TFC; Always loved watching your videos and hearing your stories and seeing your creations. You meant alot to your family, to the hermit community, and your fans and you will be missed.

My deepest condolences. I gravitated towards watching his videos as he reminded me of a man who once helped me escape a horrible relationship, many years ago, when I also lived in Tulsa. He'll definitely be missed, but he'll live on thru the legacy he's left us all.

Erin Griffin

August 17, 2022

TFC, you brought me so much comfort in the years since my dad passed away. Your personality and your sense of humor were so much like his.. when I first watched a video with you in it, I stopped short. I was in a very bad place. You filled a void and helped me to heal and to grieve my father in a healthier way. There are no words to explain how I feel right now.. sad, of course, but that's not quite it...

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. To his family: You truly have no idea how much he helped me. I'm so sorry for your loss. I will think of him often, for the rest of my life I'm sure. He touched many lives, and we all adored him.

--Sincerely, an internet stranger

I never watched his videos, but what clips of him I saw showed a personality that was very satisfied with where and who he was. He always seemed so fulfilled in life, doing what he loved. I admired his personality and happiness.

A fan from your time on Hermit Craft. Although I hadn't watched a lot of your videos your laugh was always filled with joy in the ones I was able to see. You were always being yourself and having so much fun. You will be greatly missed but Never Forgotten. Rest for the night in peace TFC.

Austin H

August 17, 2022

TFC was one of the first Hermits I found when I started watching Hermitcraft. His style of playing was refreshing and a welcome distraction from the others who all tried doing bigger and better than the season before. I always felt a little bad at the end of a season when everyone typically accomplished most of not all of their goals and TFC was still doing his own thing like the oblivious man at the end of the world, but he never seemed to mind and just rolled with it. It always felt like looking for TFC easter eggs in the other's videos to see if you could find his builds.

August 17, 2022

In all honesty, I never watched any of his videos, but I can say that I was a fan. I loved his determination and how he was always adamant to do his best while doing what he loved. I aspire to as confident and loving as he was. When I found out he had passed, I knew that the world had lost one of it's best souls that day. He will forever be apart of the Hermitcraft community. My deepest condolences to his family. May his soul rest in peace.

Charlotte Engle

August 17, 2022

I will admit I have not watched any of his videos, but I am an avid fan of Hermitcraft. Even though I did not watch any of his videos directly, I have seen clips of him before. His wonderful personality and amazing sense of humor shone through, even in such short snippets. He has touched me and made me laugh and smile, even indirectly. He always did things at his own pace, too, which has inspired me, and I’m sure many others, to not feel rushed by the expectations that surround you.

I’m glad he is resting now, and I hope he’s watching over us from wherever he is now. I hope the grieving process isn’t too heavy for his family and friends. I’m keeping all of you in my thoughts.

While I didn't know him personally, the character he was online reminded me of my Dad (gone 12 years). TFC made me feel better and I adored his Laughter! I will miss him.

I knew of Edward as TFC and I appreciated/respected him for bringing us as his fanbase to a simpler, more fun time; One when people took their time in minecraft and lightly messed with our friends. I always loved hearing his voice teasing/trolling his friends when he would be hiding out of view during their videos. His laugh will forever be in our hearts as the community has lost an amazing and strong man. He went through so much but still made sure he gave amazing content out.

Anna BomBanana

I first discovered one of Tinfoil Chef's food blogs by looking for what to do with a can of tuna, and I found his recipe for tuna pizza. He was completely correct, it was delicious. So I started looking around to see if he had any videos on YouTube, and found that he played Minecraft on a little server named Hermitctaft. I discovered a new game that I still play now, found a community of other hermits like him, and much like me, and my life has been richer for it.

I have pictures of my newborn premie son reclining in my arms while we watched a TFC Hermitctaft video. Both my kids would ask for that "hermit mycraft guy TFC" from as long as they could talk. And we would sit and watch as they fell asleep in my arms.

I have many great memories, and always considered TFC a friend, even if he didn't know me.
