He was a funny, down to earth and he had a gritty, tough personality that always put a massive grin on my face. He was a mover and doer in getting points across and thus he played an intricate part in the development of our unique community. A true pioneer of Virtual Reality. A friend, a peer and supportive, he will be greatly missed by many."

So many lives and hearts you have touched, so many souls you have helped, so much difference you have made to so many over the years as a mentor, as a resident in SL, as a friend. I will always miss your random messages, your sense of humor, your understanding of things. I cannot say SL will never be the same without you because actually SL is how it is because of you. You shall live on in Second life forever in the hearts and memories of all those who knew you. Love you dear friend. P.S. Don't give them too much trouble on the other side!

Witty, brilliant, supportive, generous...you helped me through a very tough time more than you ever knew. You helped me find a new, creative direction in SL. Without your encouragement, I never would have had the courage to try. You are so missed, my dear friend.
My sincerest condolences to Ron's family. I hope you can have some small comfort in seeing how many people's lives he touched in such meaningful and lasting ways all across the globe."

"Come with Me-poem by Rhonda Braswell
The Lord saw you getting tiredAnd a cure was not to be,So He put his arms around youAnd whispered, Come with me.With tearful eyes, we watched you sufferAnd saw you fade away,Although we loved you dearly,We could not make you stay.A golden heart stopped beating,A beautiful smile at rest,God broke our hearts to proveHe only takes the best.It's lonesome here without youWe miss you so each day,Our lives aren't the sameSince you went away.When days are sad and lonely,And everything goes wrong,We seem to hear you whisper,Cheer up and carry on.Each time we see your picture,You seem to smile and say,Don't cry, I'm in God's keeping,We'll meet again someday."

"Ron,
I walked down the street crying today. It's too much pain. Why you? Why not someone else? Someone less important to me. Yes, I know it's selfish but love is selfish.
I was reading chats and notecards between us from the last seven years. I wanted to call you to ask you about them. Your number is one of the few numbers I know. It's strange to think that I will never dial it again. The memories are all I really have left of you. You were always a source of positivity, good humor and cherished loyalty to me... You exhibited an infectious appreciation of life and inspiration to all. I will think of you often and as I always have... my dear friend, sleepy time talk buddy, mentor, teacher and Second Life partner. I will do my best to keep your memory alive forever! In God's hands you live eternally. I will see you again.

"I will always fondly remember the man as the one, the only, the incredible, the ubiquitous, Dirk Talamasca. Many an evening we spoke via keyboard to one another, pursuing life, liberty, and happiness. I regret totally not knowing his true name until now; regardless, dirk talamasca provided myself, along woth nearly 120k others, with humor, wit, and light- for no other purpose than to be an individual that made a difference. You made a difference to me old friend. The world is surely a poorer place now. With all due respect, and condolences to the family."

"Dirk was an amazing personality. I had no idea who he was, in all honesty, but he showed up on my G+ feed over and over. Always funny and bright. I would have loved to have known him personally. He was involved and responsive with his every growing following. I'm shocked and saddened... to find out why he's fallen silent. You are and will continue to be missed."

"I met Ron - aka Dirk - on Google+ back in it's beta days. He was one of the first people I circled - he was funny, quirky, and always in such a great mood. And though I'm not Irish - British through and through, please forgive me - his love for Ireland was infectious.
Dirk went from being just another amusing person on a social media site to someone I would consider a good friend. I always looked forward to his funny and amusing posts and comments - often the highlight to my day. He was truly a unique, one-in-a-million type of guy, and he will be missed, but never forgotten.
My heartfelt condolences to friends and family."

"There is not enough darkness in all the world
to put out the light of one small candle....
Don't think of Dirk as gone away
his journey's just begun,
life holds so many facets
this earth is only one.
Just think of Dirk as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.
My condolences to his family
