2004-03-31 [WarChiefFanguan]: I'll get us started on comments. Michel was such a nice, creative and all about wonderful person. May he rest in peace...and this loss is really hard on René, I hope he can get through it.

2004-03-31 [WarChiefFanguan]: (pay your respects here)

2004-03-31 [kadoofhell]: Its a sad thing, for one to die so young with still so much time on this shity earth. Maybe in some ways its good because he dosent have to deal with this world. But its also bad and sad because he left behind his family most importantly his twin brother. He will be truely missed and even though i never knew him theres a place for him in my very small heart.

2004-03-31 [Phoenix_Tiger]: Wow, I'm 19, and that is WAY too young to die...my heart goes out to his family and especially his twin brother, even though I do not know any of them. Rest in Peace Michel Koiter.

2004-03-31 [kattikawn]: I'm just curious as to where you heard this. I've been following Twincruisers' website for probably two years now and am greatly saddened and shocked at this news.

2004-03-31 [kadoofhell]: its on their website site theres a momoreumy there

2004-04-03 [GregowicH]: i knew their art, and deeply respected.. it's very sad news... and it's even more sad, knowing he was so young...

2004-04-04 [ToxicBlackMess]: R.I.P

2004-04-04 [Lady Edana-Arianrhod Rós]: I have added this Memorial to Memorium for Chief, it is always sad to see people die so young.

2004-04-23 [OceanBorn]: I know this is ahorrible to ask, but, how did he pass?

2004-04-23 [WarChiefFanguan]: Honestly, I wish I knew. He wasn't a close friend of mine, just an artist that I truly admired. I spoke to him and his brother a couple of times, but I never realy knew which one replied to my e-mails. It doesn't say anything at their website, so I assume they want to keep it private. At the young age though, there can only be a few possibilities. I will name two of the most obvious, but do realize that these aren't facts. I don't know how he died. He could have been in a car accident, specifically one that involved a drunk driver, seeing as how he was going to college.

2004-04-23 [WarChiefFanguan]: Another thing, which I have no idea if this is true or not, is that he could have had some sort of medical condition, like a heart disease, that killed him.

2004-06-18 [WarChiefFanguan]: An update on Michel Koiter: His brother, René, update both of their websites. There is now a memorial for Michel at both websites. In these memorials, it states that Michel died of an unexplained heart failure and that the cause for the heart failure is a mystery to the medical experts who exaimened him. They tested René to see if he had any problems since they are twins. He checked out fine, and it's still a mystery as to the cause of the heart failure in Michel Koiter.
