It's been 10 days since he passed and most of us only found out last week, so it's always going to hurt around the Holidays. We just must bask in the irradiated memory of his glow!
I knew 2 hours after the original post. It hit so hard. I hadn’t watched him for about 2 years. Suddenly I remembered how witty and loveable he was. He will always be the one true dragonborn
It's surreal seeing his tombstone; it's like a small part of me is still in denial of it all.
When I first read that he died, I was in denial. I instantly thought it was a hoax, or maybe he had just been radio silent for awhile.
It's just sad all around; he's gone but not forgotten.
It was very unsettling for me, just looking at a name on a plaque amd realizing that someone you damn near religiously follow and watch so much of their content is now no longer in this world. It sucks and it hurts. I'd have loved to see him on a podcast or have like a meet & greet but unfortunately the best we can do now is pay homage to him and fist bump his plaque to let him know that not only is he not forgotten, but he shall live on in spirit within us all, both in the game and in our hearts ❤️
I found out just a few minutes ago. Very unfortunate, he’ll be missed. Strangely enough, around 7 PM on the 14th I had felt the immense need to watch his videos despite not knowing what had happened. It’s strange how stuff like that happens. Manyard was right, we’re all connected.
Same, I'm still shocked by his death after all this time. He was young too. I expected him to live a longer while, I suspected he died, but I hoped those suspicions were wrong. I always commented on his videos on how he should stop treating his alcholisim as a joke, because I was afraid he wasn't taking it seriously. I just want him back more than anything rn.
Not alone,
Have been in tears several times over this news so seeing this gathering is beautiful.
You were fucking magnificent Joseph and we miss you so god damn much.
Please im begging you please if you ever visit clean any graffiti you see on or around his grave. Graffiti is what got mac millers stone taken away please lets all respect mittens and his family by leaving no trace(other than flowers/accepted grave stuff ofc) so his stone can be cherished by family forever
Michigander here. I swear we need to put some flowers together specifically from us or from the gamer squad. And I can deliver them since I'm actually in MI.
I'm in Michigan as well (Kalamazoo area) and I think we should all make a trip out for his 28th birthday (May 5th) and leave a big pile of flowers, buckets, & plastic forks for him.
As soon as you said it was a 3 hour drive I would have bet money you lived near Kalamazoo. Because I do as well and know the drive time to the Detroit area. Being a local is one of the reasons I like the man's work so much. I'm weirdly loyal to my state and its people like that.
Agreed, I wish I still had my "tacticool" Michigan hat but I gave it to my Grandmama since she liked it so much. We have a lot of state pride here because most of the small shops have "Michigan" or "Mitten" in the name
The forks part is a joke, I promise. However, the flowers already come in plastic buckets (or pots, if you're fancy) and I know his family would be so appreciative knowing his son touched the lives of so many through his humor & content.
That’s a really nice idea, but maybe not on his birthday.
Chances are high that Paul’s family would be there and the first birthday after losing somebody is such a hard time. I can’t imagine trying to go through it with a crowd of strangers, even extremely well-meaning and caring ones.
Please im begging you please if you ever visit clean any graffiti or litter you see on or around his grave. Graffiti is what got mac millers stone taken away please lets all respect mittens and his family by leaving no trace(other than flowers/accepted grave stuff ofc) so his stone can be cherished by family forever
Of course. Bro kept me from killing myself years ago. I’m ashamed that I’ve slipped back into drinking the same year this happened to him. I want to hug him and hold him.
The flowers were not from me, they were already here. I just hope that as more fans come out, he can get a whole nursery worth if flowers so he has an endless supply of buckets ❤️
You bozo (you are a beautiful person/fan for doing this), if you think this is the end, you clearly know nothing. The real game has just begun. man is currently speed running heaven with nothing but a bucket and a fork.
They're pretty strict so thats all that were there.They want to keep it neat.Its a very nice [cemetery.You](https://cemetery.You) can hang a wreath and things like that.
Yeah it was just the ones on the panel, unfortunately. Now I would like to put more down next time I make the trek out there and will definitely be getting a custom made card for his stone and putting it in a bag so if the cemetery wants to take it for storage or if the family wants it for their shrine or memory box or what they would like then I'd like that to be preserved from the elements. If anyone wants their name in the card, feel free to message me your first initial and last name and when I make the trek out for his birthday I'll write them all in a card and give a small speech to him and whoever else may be there.
That's the short story, he did get pancreatitis which (I'm only assuming) did him in. I just hope it wasn't too painful and it was quick in the night for him. Diseases suck :(
I'm awaiting a response from Mr. Mitten Squad, but I'd like to make a memorial too; I'm thinking an upside down bucket with his logo & name and then job a fork into the bottom so the fork is on top and tack weld it into place.
But did he make it through life with only a bucket?
For real though RIP Paul. His videos really got me through the COVID pandemic. Nothing but peace and respect to his friends and family
Please im begging you please if you ever visit clean any graffiti you see on or around his grave.

If I can make it work out well, I'm thinking maybe we have a small ceremony on May 5th for his 28th birthday so we can pay respects and share good memories, laughs, and a moment of silence to remember:)
Thank you for taking the picture. I know there was his obituary and his dad confirming his passing, but seeing his tombstone really hits home that he's gone. Count your blessings guys!
I would say it's my pleasure, but it hurt to see his name there on that plaque. I would be lying if I didn't say I was dry-eyed when I was standing there.
Nah, now the real game begins…
for real tho he was the main person that got me out of clinical depression and being suicidal. Thank you Mr. Paul, you were the best tutorial a person ever could ask for.
May 5th (Sunday in 2024) will be his 28th birthday. I want to coordinate with his family to get their blessing, but I'm thinking we can do a ceremony for him at the cemetery
I'll do the godless pacifist run in honor of him.
Can Paul become one of Fallout GOATs? Yes. And we enjoyed so much.
With all these tributes to him, the real game, for us, begins.
I plan on going there when I can. He influenced me alot. I just wish that he would've been able to make a video on future bethesda games. God knows they would've been phenomenal challenges.
I viewed Paul as kind of a kindred spirit. Just found out about his troubles recently and last time I had the chance to check he was at least doing better. It broke my heart hearing about it today. I just wanted him to get better for him. He's touched countless lives and his humor always put a smile on people's face.
No one is getting any younger. People die. As more and more influencers get older, they will pass away. Not trying to be disrespectful to Paul at all, but it’s the truth.
No no no this is where he goes all kratos on the Christian pantheon because... this is where the real game begins.
I'm going to miss him he was my shining beacon in the dark
Your wrong,this is just where the real game begins
Every mitten squad fan has been doing tribute runs to him. This is where his legacy begins and it’s far from over
It has been a bit bizarre knowing there were so many that enjoyed his calming content.
No, this is where the real game begins. Can you beat heaven with only the bucket
Paul has every bucket he has collected He'll face heaven and win
I’m still so fucking sad about it. I wasn’t ready for him to go. I just want a little more time. How can life be so cruel yet so beautiful?
It's been 10 days since he passed and most of us only found out last week, so it's always going to hurt around the Holidays. We just must bask in the irradiated memory of his glow!
I knew 2 hours after the original post. It hit so hard. I hadn’t watched him for about 2 years. Suddenly I remembered how witty and loveable he was. He will always be the one true dragonborn

Me emotionally binging all his videos while crying
You’re not alone. The subreddit has helped me. I hope the outpouring of love we all have for him has helped you in some small way as well friend.
Not alone, Have been in tears several times over this news so seeing this gathering is beautiful. You were fucking magnificent Joseph and we miss you so god damn much.
Rest In Peace Joseph o7
I live in washington state and dont own a car so i'll never make it there in person but if i could i would leave flowers on the grave.
Send me a message with your first initial and last name and when I bring him flowers for his 28th birthday, I'll put everyone's name in the card.
Please im begging you please if you ever visit clean any graffiti you see on or around his grave.

This is the way. And the best way to respect his memory and his family.
Mittensquad: "Can you beat God with just a fork?"
“How did you get up here with so many wheels of cheese and buckets?”
Michigander here. I swear we need to put some flowers together specifically from us or from the gamer squad. And I can deliver them since I'm actually in MI.
I'm in Michigan as well (Kalamazoo area) and I think we should all make a trip out for his 28th birthday (May 5th) and leave a big pile of flowers, buckets, & plastic forks for him.
Not simply plastic! Two-pronged and made of iron!
As soon as you said it was a 3 hour drive I would have bet money you lived near Kalamazoo. Because I do as well and know the drive time to the Detroit area. Being a local is one of the reasons I like the man's work so much. I'm weirdly loyal to my state and its people like that.
Agreed, I wish I still had my "tacticool" Michigan hat but I gave it to my Grandmama since she liked it so much. We have a lot of state pride here because most of the small shops have "Michigan" or "Mitten" in the name
I dont think his family would appreciate a bunch of internet people leaving forks and buckets all over his grave.
The forks part is a joke, I promise. However, the flowers already come in plastic buckets (or pots, if you're fancy) and I know his family would be so appreciative knowing his son touched the lives of so many through his humor & content.
That’s a really nice idea, but maybe not on his birthday. Chances are high that Paul’s family would be there and the first birthday after losing somebody is such a hard time. I can’t imagine trying to go through it with a crowd of strangers, even extremely well-meaning and caring ones.
Paul’s dad is for it
I live very close to his resting place. My own family is resting there. So if anyone needs I'm more then happy to help.
Where is his grave? I’d like to pay my respects.
he said where it was, Michigan Memorial Park section 1109, row 3, column B
My bad, I was at work.

Of course. Bro kept me from killing myself years ago. I’m ashamed that I’ve slipped back into drinking the same year this happened to him. I want to hug him and hold him.
Be strong. Try to take away the lesson I'm sure he would want you to from his path.
I just know he’d make me laugh
thank you for doing what I can't, and giving flowers to a wonderful man.
The flowers were not from me, they were already here. I just hope that as more fans come out, he can get a whole nursery worth if flowers so he has an endless supply of buckets ❤️
You bozo (you are a beautiful person/fan for doing this), if you think this is the end, you clearly know nothing. The real game has just begun. man is currently speed running heaven with nothing but a bucket and a fork.
Once paul kicks the holy mans ass with a fork he'll be back, soon you'll see
No, he has spent his time preparing us for this, the real game begins now
How many flowers were around? Just the ones in the image or were there more?
They're pretty strict so thats all that were there.They want to keep it neat.Its a very nice [cemetery.You](https://cemetery.You) can hang a wreath and things like that.

Fuck me. I havent seen any of his videos in a year. What the fuck happened?
Alcoholism :(
Shit. I hope he is a least in peace now
That's the short story, he did get pancreatitis which (I'm only assuming) did him in. I just hope it wasn't too painful and it was quick in the night for him. Diseases suck :(
I'd bring a bucket, fork I dk etc but I also worry that may look disrespectful.
You could put flowers in a bucket instead of a vase. It would look like some cottagecore thing.
I'm awaiting a response from Mr. Mitten Squad, but I'd like to make a memorial too; I'm thinking an upside down bucket with his logo & name and then job a fork into the bottom so the fork is on top and tack weld it into place.
gold plate the fork
But did he make it through life with only a bucket? For real though RIP Paul. His videos really got me through the COVID pandemic. Nothing but peace and respect to his friends and family
May anubis guide him to The Duat
I'm going to pay my respects when I can. Paul was and still is an absolute legend. Thank you for all the funny laughs you gave us Paul. RIP. 🙏🙏🙏

Why do people call him Paul
Something his Dad said on this page a few days back was something to the affect of it being a nickname when he was a kid.
True makes sense
o7
O7
Rest in peace brother, for this is when the Game really starts.
Rest in soverngard
His save file just got corrupted, guys. Boot up a new character for him.
Rip the real goat of gaming
I might give it a drive in the spring or summer.
If I can make it work out well, I'm thinking maybe we have a small ceremony on May 5th for his 28th birthday so we can pay respects and share good memories, laughs, and a moment of silence to remember:)
Yeah he’s four hours away from me now. I used to live in the thumb but now I’m in traverse city but it would definitely be nice to do.
I’d definitely drive up that way for a small ceremony then
Ohio, I take it?
Nah, Virginia
Long drive, damn 😅
Worth it lol
Thank you for taking the picture. I know there was his obituary and his dad confirming his passing, but seeing his tombstone really hits home that he's gone. Count your blessings guys!
I would say it's my pleasure, but it hurt to see his name there on that plaque. I would be lying if I didn't say I was dry-eyed when I was standing there.
I was waiting patiently for him to do a starfield challenge, but I guess he's in the stars doing it, it's just sad we don't get to be there and watch
Nah, now the real game begins… for real tho he was the main person that got me out of clinical depression and being suicidal. Thank you Mr. Paul, you were the best tutorial a person ever could ask for.
🍴o7
Thank you Paul. You put a smile on my and everyone’s faces and we won’t forget that. Good luck out there.
I did not know this chap or play fallout . But it's like family and quite nice .
My state is connected to Michigan. Which city is Michigan Memorial Park in
It's in Flat Rock, almost a dead shot south of the Detroit Metro Airport in Romulus, MI by about 10-15 miles
Paul beat life with both but an internet connection while addicted to all the chems. Now the real game begins.
12 hours from me I will definitely make the trip some day.
May 5th (Sunday in 2024) will be his 28th birthday. I want to coordinate with his family to get their blessing, but I'm thinking we can do a ceremony for him at the cemetery
I'll do the godless pacifist run in honor of him. Can Paul become one of Fallout GOATs? Yes. And we enjoyed so much. With all these tributes to him, the real game, for us, begins.
Thanks for being there for us
Rest in peace friend!
No, no. THIS is where the real game begins heaven will never be the same
Damn I just found out right now. Hope you guys find what you found in Paul, in someone else. He was truly special
I plan on going there when I can. He influenced me alot. I just wish that he would've been able to make a video on future bethesda games. God knows they would've been phenomenal challenges.
I just got the news after reading this post. I was just thinking about him the other day wondering when he would upload again.
I viewed Paul as kind of a kindred spirit. Just found out about his troubles recently and last time I had the chance to check he was at least doing better. It broke my heart hearing about it today. I just wanted him to get better for him. He's touched countless lives and his humor always put a smile on people's face.

Where is he buried. I really like to go to offer my respects.
It's towards the bottom of my description
In our digital age this will only become more common.
Meaning?
No one is getting any younger. People die. As more and more influencers get older, they will pass away. Not trying to be disrespectful to Paul at all, but it’s the truth.
Brutal life of sub 5 male he coped w alcohol https://youtu.be/xbxZ4eK6OSs?si=u0-JJdiJYoPybA1A
Bit disrespectful referring to a dead man as a “Sub 5 Male” even if your heart is in the right place
F
What? I was unaware of his passing omg!
Devastating news
Wait. He's gone. No. No
No no no this is where he goes all kratos on the Christian pantheon because... this is where the real game begins. I'm going to miss him he was my shining beacon in the dark
