I couldn't make myself put this under Off Topics.
For those of you who haven't already heard the news, from the KFCC forum:

Im really sorry that I have to bring you this terrible news, but we lost our great friend David.

David Leong
aka Magic8


A True Samurai Journalist
KFCC News Editor and Reviewer 2004-2006

David's love for Asian cinema affected all of our lives on a daily basis. His knowledge of film had a deep sense of nostalgic appreciation that may never be rivaled. Day after day he dedicated himself to giving each and every one of us exactly what it was that made us happy. His uncanny ability to stick to his guns and fight for what he believed in is a rare and celebrated quality in our book. We have suffered a tragic loss with the passing of David. We hope that we can all look back and enjoy his amazing work...and smile. -The KFCC Team

David has passed away, due to natural cause during the weekend of March 18 2006.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

This is indeed terrible news. The guys at KFCC are going to forward me an obit that I will post on the front page today. Magic-8 (David) will certainly be missed.

Very sad news indeed

生命無常
His message still can be seen on the face of the index...

R.I.P.

Best wishes to his family and friends

Eternal rest grant unto him

May perpetual light shine upon him...

He brought so much love and knowledge to this and other websites. I hope he is somewhere with a huge widescreen TV, plenty of films to watch, and a big bucket of popcorn. Sad news indeed.

His work will never be forgotten.

Magic-8, Rest In Peace

May God embrace David Leong's spirit, and that David will continue his journey of everlasting life. My condolences to his family and friends for this terrible loss.

God bless
