This page has been dedicated to our fellow
Unrealer and friend, Keithian Thomas. He died on Tuesday,
December 14, 2004 at Charlotte Medical Center. I may of not been
one of his closest friends, but he was one of the guys from Long's class and it's hard not to forget anyone from that class.
We all didn't have to put up a fake front in that class, we
could just be ourselves. None of us would hide the fact
that we were little PC gamer geeks in there and we loved playing
Unreal Tournament in Long's class.
Keithian was hesitant at first with joining us geeky white kids
playing UT [lol] but with the addition of Shawn [Juicy], he soon
sided with the rest of us. He began to enjoy the game and
became very good at it. I would know it too...because I
kept seeing "Killed by Be_Ez" on my screen in the latter part of Long's class in '04. Be_Ez was his name in Unreal and he
always used the Nali skin cause he liked hitting the Nali voice
taunts "Habouji!". Me and him used to have long mini
matches during CTF games because it took forever for one of us
to die while fighting each other, we normally died by our own
flak in the end or me smacking the wall with a rocket.
Keithian and AJ[From Hell] were the top fighters for the Red
team, me and Long always tried to avoid Be_Ez at all cost.
For some reason, Long and I just couldn't get his moves down so
he would be the main one to kill us. With Juicy carrying
the flag and Be_Ez covering him..the Blue team could do nothing
to stop them from scoring.
He was also a great all around guy, he would always come in
Long's with jokes and threats to beat the crap out of the
"Whores" during that days game. He didn't care if the Red
team lost, just as long as most of his kills were from Long and
me.
I know he will be greatly missed by many a friend and family.
I don't think anyone from Long's class will ever forget the guy,
I know I won't. I wish everyone the best in these hard
times and God bless.

Screen Shots:
We played many games in Long's class and I did manage to take
screen shots of a lot of them. Here is my collection I
have of Be_Ez playing with us in those games.

Respects:
Eddie (Bandit[CW]):
Hey I meet this fine young man
one time, which was in Long's class and first it's sad he was so
young and next I'm sorry to have missed out more chances to play
against him and challenge his anti Whore campaign. Anyway
I send my respect to his family and friends.
Edward:
I will forever miss covering him while he scores....and then
hits V and 3 to say "haboruji!" The LAN parties will never be
the same by not hearing him saying I'll kick your ass today
Long, and his quiet but very strong character not only in the
game but in life itself. This is just so sad to even write this
paragraph about my red team bud, but it's life and that is how
it goes.
Deidre:
Keithian was a very sweet and hilarious person. I loved him
soo much as a friend. He was in a lot of my classes in high
school. He was always joking around....he always had me
laughing. Hahaa, in Chemistry, we would always compete to see
who got the higher grade. He was VERY smart. We'd always make
the same though. He will be greatly missed. I hope that everyone
keeps his family in their prayers, especially his grandmother,
Mrs. Connie. She was in my Bio163 class, and she was such a
wonderful lady. God bless you all and take care.
AJ (From_Hell):
Its hard to comprehend why the man upstairs would take such
a unique and talented person. I know myself and others
will miss him dearly.
Makia Jacobs:
I knew Keithian since I was a freshman. His personality
captured anyone the instant he met them. He always put a smile
on my face during the times I thought I couldn’t smile, and made
me laugh when I never could find anything to laugh about. He
taught me how to easy up and stop making my life so difficult.
During the times when people would joke around with me in Long’s
class, he would always be a friend and take up for me. When I
couldn’t get a word that Long was talking about, and I thought I
was the dumbest in the class (lol) he would take the time out to
help me, just as long as I did most of the writing. He was also
really smart. I spent so much time studying and stressing, and
he would just chill and get an A on most of the tests we took.
Words can’t express the sorrow that I feel right now. I am just
glad that I got a chance to know him, because never knowing him
would have been worst. My deepest regards to his family and
closest friends. We are going to make it through this struggle
together, just BE EZ!
Josh ([CW]Ravie):
Wow, the news really just hit me hard. Keithian is the first
person in my age group to pass away that I actually had a
connection to. I always thought about the day, five or so years
down the road, when everyone that was in Long's class could just
reunite for a day and have a reunion of playing unreal. If we
actually do that, we have to leave a seat empty for be_ez, cause
he'll be there in spirit.
Long's class was great because you got to see all these people
come new into Unreal, and over the year, just mature into the
some of the best players. Keithian was one of the main ones to
show such fast progress in the game. I'll miss our fire-fights,
and how much he hated it when i jumped around like a crack-head.
frag one for be_ez...
Mr._Dangles[CW]:
I know this post may come a bit late but I'm hardly
ever online but I still wanted to leave a word. I first played
unreal in Long's class but Be Ez wasn't in my class. A year or
so later, when he was in Long's class I occasionally dropped in
and played a few matches. He was a great player and I remember
wishing that he had been in the class with me because he was a
great asset to any unreal game even if he was on the opposite
team because he just made it fun and challenging. At the same
time he was in my Spanish 2 class and I remember struggling
through Mrs. Rooks' lessons with him.

Respects Thread:
I have setup a forum thread for anyone who wishes to pay their
respects or just to talk about the good times we had in Long's
class playing with Keithian. I'm sure it will mean a lot
to his friends and others, thanks.
