I know normally this (an image) wouldn't fit here, but I thought it was poignant and relevant considering the front page.

It's an excellent design, and a fine tribute.

When he stepped down. Notice the post itself doesn't actually say anything about his death.

The post tags include "death" and "RIP". probably a server misconfiguration tho.

Considering he stepped down on the 25th, this post is on the 26th, and it is titled "Thanks", I'm inclined to believe it is not an accidental misconfiguration.
