Time to say goodbye

You’re brave to post here… Most people won’t have that strength.
My prayers and best wishes in the next months.
You’ll be missed.

Hoi, die Eddy,

Zo lang er leven is, is er hoop.
Je bent nog lang niet voorgoed “offline”

We PM-en je nog wel.

je avast forum vriend,

polonus

Hi Eddy!

So sorry, but my best wishes are with you. Thanks for everything you did here. I’ll miss you, too.

Eddy · 2017-09-21T02:57:34.000Z

Not possible to say something personal to everyone (including those who have sent a pm).
But thanks.
They will not help, but sure are appreciated.
It is ok, to forget me just don’t forget to have fun in live and to enjoy the little joys in live.

Para-Noid · 2017-09-21T14:18:15.000Z

My prayers are with you and your family.
In life there is hope. In hope there is peace. In peace there is love.

Hoi Eddy,

Ik weet niet zo goed wat ik moet zeggen …
Volgens mij woon jij in Hengelo, en dat is vlak bij Enschede waar ik woon.
Ik zou je graag eens komen opzoeken, beter leren kennen.

Heel veel sterkte, Erik.

SpeedyPC · 2017-09-23T03:22:56.000Z

I’m sorry to read you’re bad news Eddy, and we’re all going to missed you.

As Mason I was taught to enjoy life to the fullest, love and freedom as much as you can with your family who loves you so much, your closest friends around you too and also here on the Avast forum who is also close to you.

Don’t let fear get you towards the end of your journey, because is perfectly natural Eddy just focus on enjoying life to the fullest as much as you can.

All glory to the most high to you Eddy

Hi Eddy,

very sorry to hear that. Enjoy the time you still have. My prayers are with you and your family.

A exact time is impossible to tell ofcourse, but it will most likely be between 1 and 5 months before I am dead.

Hi Eddy!

I thought so, too,38 years ago!!! Are you really sure and there’s no way to fight for your life? I tried to send a PM, but since you are blocking, there is no way for me to write you s.th. interesting. So sorry!

Until you contact me.

The best advice I can pass along is to always think positive and leave the final decision in the Lords hands.
Please follow that advice even if you don’t agree.
(It certainly will not make matters any worse.)

Rednose · 2017-09-25T22:22:09.000Z

Yesterday, I had a very pleasant first telephone call with Eddy, and I am going to visit him.

Greetz, Red.

Nice.

avastuser3796 · 2017-09-28T13:20:26.000Z

Eddy,

I don’t really have words. We haven’t talked much, but I hope you get better. The hole you will leave here at Avast! forums will never be filled. You will be missed everywhere people have had the chance to meet you.

I wish you the best,
~Michael

Rednose · 2017-10-01T00:38:56.000Z

I have visited Eddy.

And I have shared this with Bob, Daam and some others here on the forum.

Greetz, Red.

Strenght to Eddy and family,

We all hope that miracles do happen sometimes.

Thoughts to the Avast Team:
Since Eddy gave so much time, effort and support for Avast…
Can’t Avast do some effort (in any way) to support Eddy and family?

That would really be a great “anti-virus”-act.

Share this to Avast.

To Rednose: Goed gedaan

Eddy · 2017-10-07T14:39:32.000Z

Only thing avast can do “for me” is to stop with that idiotic marketing strategy and solve all the known bugs that are on the huge list they have there.

It is time avast start realizing where they came from, what made them large/successful.

It would certainly be great present for all of Avast’s users.

Not fixing existing bugs has already led to the slow rot of Avast. More neglect will only accelerate the decline.

system · 2017-10-07T16:40:17.000Z

Yes indeed +++

Avast should read your previous statements and certainly this one… and do something about it.
I realy hope they follow your advice.
Good thing would be making a tribute….

A unique Avast Free “Eddy Edition”… adjusted to, and based on your wishes.
A complete working AV-version, without any bugs nor marketing items.
Then keep that version unchanged forever as basic (always working) reference-file.

This is a good way for them to show respect for all what you did.
Other massive posters on this forum can agree and help with that I think.

Hope the best for you in comming difficult times…
Also hope the Avast-Team will read this post.

Decline of Avast forced me already to run Defender instead of Avast on half of my PC’s.
(As precaution in case Avast makes all of them suddenly unusable)
