Today
July 30th we pour a little liquor for our homie
marimari aka Kyle Bouvier. Time sure flies - seven years ago that afternoon when we heard the news...
His selfless acts and being an extremely positive nice guy, doesn't even begin to describe what he meant to us. One of the greatest
has ever seen. Check out the Classic Threads Museum for a taste of his impact. Kyle had contributed so much to the Hello! Project fandom by sharing many materials at all the sites. He was a regular in the IRC and took part in online games like Pangya. When we learned that throughout his life, he was confined to a wheelchair due to muscular dystrophy, it made us respect him even more. To overcome those odds, to be with us HiPsters.Words cannot describe what he meant to the H!P Fandom. The ultimate Risa fanboy. LOOK at his Reina sig, animated dancin! from his last.fm account:
