Update

[tteck]

Good afternoon! I am tteckster's wife. I don't have a clue if anyone will even see this because I'm not the computer savvy person that my husband was, but I wanted to try. I know that he posted an update regarding his health the other week, and I wanted to let you all know that he passed away a few days ago. If anyone sees this, maybe you could make a better post. Thank you for all that supported him. Angie

This is Angie, and to say I am overwhelmed by all the comments, thoughts, love, prayers, and condolences is an understatement. As well as the donations. My husband loved this site, and he was passionate about computers, coding, and all the stuff that goes with it. He showed me a lot of the comments that were made when he posted about his cancer and it made him smile. Thank you all for the love and support that you have shown to him, and now me.
He would be amazed that I even found his sight and was able to make a post. Thank you all again, it warms my heart that he touched so many lives.*

Just want to say that without your husbands work I would have not been able to achieve many of the things I have been able to on my setup. What a legend. Sorry to hear of his passing. Very sad.

Angie, my sincere condolences. Don enriched many lives by sharing his knowledge. I'm 70 yrs old and started messing with PC's back in 1982. I lost my 'passion' for the technology 15 yrs ago but a single YouTube video I stumbled upon in Novaspirit Tech reignited my passion. Don was brilliant and could adequately explain complex subjects. My home lab is awesome and completely automated because of Don. I only hope that the small offering I left on ko-fi will help bring some ease to your family.

[kennyS-69420]

Are you sure he was Don as Don recently posted

[lrodia]

I first started using Proxmox a couple of years ago and came across ttecks scripts, to say they have been invaluable is an understatement, I am grateful for everything he has done within the community, the knowledge I have gained from his work has been incredible. His work help so many people and I am sure his legacy will live on for many many years to come, this is testament to the lives he has touched

Angie, my heartfelt condolences to you and your family

RIP tteck

[kennylawrence]

It's amazing that this generous gentleman that I never knew existed has shared work which today has allowed me to jumpstart my path into VM's, Linux in general, and home-automation-fun so painlessly. I know well the momentum-sapping frustration that comes from being inundated with the sudden need to learn so many new platforms and packages.. being able to leverage his knowledge to quickly build something that I can use and which inspires me to continue is just such a gift at a time when I find it difficult to stay focused. Much appreciated, stranger!

[jturazzi]

I want to tell you that your husband's project has truly made a difference in the lives of many people. His work and passion for computers and coding had a profound impact, and many benefited from his ideas, his contributions, and his support. What he accomplished will remain an inspiration to many. Be proud of everything he brought to the world, and know that his legacy will live on through the lives he touched. You are not alone, and his project continues to live on through us.

[XBFTW]

I'm so sorry for your loss, @tteck 's work will remain useful for many to come

I'm sorry for your loss, rest in peace @tteck.

[smougenot]

Hello Angie, Your husband created a lot of great tech that help many people including me.
I can not say I knew him but would have appreciated to.
(IMOO) We would all be better with a few more people that helped other in a humble way like @tteck did.

I'm also very pleased to understand the projet will go on ... and reach many other people.

(I posted some of this message on the ko-fi donation)

[regularguy01]

Angie,
I am just a Regular Guy. I Like your Husband love all things tech. All the Scripts he wrote helped me a lot.

The loss of a mate is hard. May God strengthen you and the family daily. You post hit home as it would be like the one my wife would write.

The Regular Guy

Dear Angie,

I’m truly sorry for your loss.

I just found out today that @tteck has passed away. His scripts were incredibly helpful while building my Homelab. What stood out even more was the neatness, project—issues were always resolved promptly, and it was always a pleasure to interact with him. He was a great example of how to manage a GitHub project.

Kind regards,
Drallas

[thecameluk]

Eu gostaria de escrever em meu idioma nativo (Brazilian) para mostrar o quão longe a ajuda e dedicação do tteck chegou.
Ele me salvou horas de trabalho em meu homelab com os scripts que ele criou.
Lamento muito que ele tenha partido tão cedo e gostaria de enviar as minhas mais sinceras condolências à família.

R.I.P tteck

[ciworks]

I have a great amount of respect and admiration for the work by tteck - despite never meeting him.

I was devastated to hear the news and my prayers and thoughts go out to Angie and the family at this time.

On this note - much respect to Angie for making the post and getting this out to people who cared so much about the work tteck was doing - myself included.

R.I.P

[terrelsa13]

How I am just now learning about this?
My condolences to you Angie and your family. @tteck was a legend and he helped me get started with using LXCs in Proxmox.
I hope what he started here will continue to live on in a way he would be proud of.

[maur8ino]

I too learned about this just now 😢 The warmest hug to you Angie and @tteck's whole family!

[DinkTheTink]

So sorry to hear of this - my thoughts are with tteck's family at this time. @tteck has been responsible for so much of my tinkering.... and subsequent learning.
