Rest In Peace, CoffeeBean · 12:29am Apr 21st, 2020
This post was not easy to write. I have been flailing away at this screen for hours and days, trying to find some way to properly convey this. Poetry has always eluded me. I'll be short and succinct:
CoffeeBean is dead. My friend and comrade in ponies, writing, gun nuttery, and late night crazy talk died on April 5th. Fimfiction has lost one of its finest. He was a great man, and the world is worse without him.
Coffee was a very nice guy, a cool dude, and a fantastic author. You've probably seen a story or five of his in a Seattle's Angels review or dominating the feature box. His death was an accidental, unexpected one. He was only 21 years old. Though few of us met him in person, he still impacted many of us he leaves behind.
There should be a face to the dead. These photos were sent to me by his mother, who informed me of the news. It would mean the world to her if you could lead a little comment on his page.
I apologize, I couldn't get Fimfic's photo embed to work.

It was great being your friend, Coffee. You did not deserve this.
Rest in peace, Bratan.
I'm so sorry man.
Rest in Peace, sweet Bean.
We'll miss you.
dang i feel for all of us who have lost a grate author.
Very sorry.
Shit....
If there is one thing we all have in common, it is that sooner or later, we all lose someone important. My sincerest condolences. Hang in there and stay strong; it is no doubt what he would want.
oh god. I'm so sorry to hear this. :(
Sending all the condolences, prayers, and hugs I can fit through the internet to you, and to Coffee's family.
I've shared these pictures with a good lot of his friends.
Thank you for sharing them, and thank you for being a friend for James.
I miss him, man. I really fucking do.
Fuck. I wondered what happened to him but thought he just left the fandom.
He was a fantastic author and a good friend of mine. We were gonna write a story together.
Shit.
I'm gonna read his story again. In remembrance.
