A Death of an FA Legend, Fastkill911

 

FA Players,

 

Brandon Lunsford, AKA: Fastkill911 died in a drowning this past Monday the 18th, 2007. FK, as many of us knew him by was a legendary FA player. He dominated every server he entered and was the leader of one of the best FA clans to ever compete. FK was the leader of the elite clan $aC, Solders at Combat. FK lead $aC to win the STA seasons 1, 2, 3, and CAL season 4 Championships. No matter what clan he played for he made the deciding factor in the match. He was a great player and most of all a very classy guy. We will miss him, and please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers.

I'm sad to see anyone die. :rolleyes:

apparently he did know how to swim, since he was reported to have done so many times, may he rest in peace....

I would like to thank all of Brandon's gaming peers for the posts here. Combat Gaming was a important part of his life. It was nice to see he had touched so many lives through his passion for it. To read about his gaming prowess & see the posts from the other FA gamers all over the world whom he had played with & against was heartwarming & helpful at a time when I am particularly weary & sad. Bernice & I fostered & encouraged a love of gaming in Brandon. Even as a small child he was gifted at combat game play, we spent hours & hours way back when mastering CONTRA on the original Nintendo system...he loved competition. The constant flow of automatic weapons fire, explosions & command chatter from his room was sometimes annoying, but, I'd give anything to hear it now...

 

There is a remembrance guest book provided on the SacBee.com obituary page for Brandon that we plan to have printed as our keepsake later on this year. I would love to see a few posts from his gaming friends included there.

The area where the accident occurred is unpredictable. The American river joins the larger Sacramento River there. We will never know what caused the accident. He & his bud Mike had just arrived at the beach area about 15 minutes before the accident. Mike swam across to their favorite spot, an overhanging tree, jumped in & swam back to the beach, & then swam across again ahead of Brandon with no problems. I suspect a combination of the day?s temp (108) combined with the American river?s water temp being lower than normal (60s) due to additional water being released from the damn upriver caused a cramp. Brandon paused, was caught in the strong current and was swept under. Mike immediately dove in to help when Brandon failed to resurface, but couldn?t find him in the swift moving water. DART divers were on the scene within minutes & also failed. His body was recovered the following evening.

 

Thank you again, Sincerely, Charles L. (Fastkill911's Dad)

 

I would like to respond to the Pfc_weihe?s comment. Gaming was an competitive outlet for Brandon, at which he was extremely skilled. It was however, just a small portion of his busy life. Brandon was 6?4? tall, 190 lbs, very athletic and an experienced skilled swimmer. Between being a full time student at ITT tech, working full time, playing basketball, and keeping the ladies happy, Brandon had a very active life.

That is possibly the most disrespectful thing i have ever heard

 

Sorry for your loss Charles.

So sorry to hear about your loss. Its always a shame to hear about the loss of such a young and promising life. I know the words of of strangers can only mean so much, but it is a testament to his character in real life and the way he spent his life to hear so many of his online friends sing his praises though they had never met him face to face.

 

Best wishes to you Charles and the rest of your family as you come to grips with this.

Sorry to hear him go, but I quess if you dont have a life and all you do is play video games you would'nt have time to learn how to swim. Well my prayers to his family.

That is probably the worst thing anyone can say when someone dies. How callous of you!

 

My prayers go out to you, Charles, and your family in this tragic accident. I think I speak for everyone here at the Armory in saying, if there is anything you need, we would be more than happy to help you, in anyway we can. Again my condolences to you and your family.

Uh, wow... That's not very cool!

 

Didn't every have the opportunity to game with him, but my condolences none the less....

 

RIP...

Sorry to hear the bad news :confused: I remember a few times playing with him on the ol' FA, but damn....as gator said, its always sad to see someone so young perish with such potential ahead of them.
I did not know Brandon nor did I play with him, but this is very tragic indeed. It is futile to attempt to contain the value of a life within words, much less mine. I am sorry for you and your family's loss Charles and I wish all of you well.

I played with him on some server many times and was one of the very best players: the right named!

It's always sad to hear great friends die!

Sincere condoleances to his family.

Egidio.
