I suppose it was only a matter of time. Farewell, friend.

Y'all, don't act like this is evidence of the world being awful. This is life. It has to end for all of us some time. For Stefan, his life and vitality was tested for years while an uproarious flood of total strangers cheered him on in a battle against evil. He's given the world a lot, more than what is average for a human being, and saying that alone means his life was fulfilled, and his peace with it is an example to all of us how we should take the news. Don't hold your breath waiting for the next unexpected comeback. Just be thankful he gave us all something to smile about.
