In Memory Of Rick May

As you may know, Rick May (The TF2 voice actor for Soldier) has been taken by COVID-19 among other illnesses. As of April 13th, 11:30PM; I will be going around TF2 casual and community servers and spreading the news. In each server, I will ask the majority if they would like to do a gun salute with shotguns. These will be screen shot and you may see the pictures by going to my screenshots for the game. Also, I will be publicly uploading the screenshots.

We lost a good man today, but to Us he was a hero. Rick May was a part of something that brought us all together; the chance of playing for and against each other in TF2.

Rick May ; The Voice of Soldier - 9/21/1940 - 4/13/2020

Rick May, a extremely talented actor and the voice of
Peppy Hare and Andross - Starfox 64
Dr. M - Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves
Genghis Khan - Age of Empires II
and of all, the Voice of Soldier from TF2 suffered a stroke in February 2020 and was moved to a nursing home for rehabilitation. He passed on April 13, 2020, from COVID-19 at Swedish Medical Center in Seattle at the age of 79.

May his talent pass on, AND SOLDIER, GET YOUR GEAR INTO BATTLE AND KEEP GOING, FOR HIS SAKE, AND STAY HOME TO NOT SPREAD THIS VIRUS AND KEEP PLAYING SOLDIER IN HIS HONOR!
MERCENARIES, LET'S BEAT THIS VIRUS LIKE WE DO IN CASUAL!

Rick May's Death

Since Rick May has died (R.I.P) will Valve do something to honor him?

I feel bad for the players who were trying to join in but got killed in the process. Guess there will always be people trying to ruin things.

that would be asking a lot from valve if they can't even do a blogpost for a video game. plus, may was really old so he would have passed away years soon regardless, otherwise they would have to write a tribute for every voice actor of their franchises who passes away
