There are so many things I could say, but I don’t think I could even put our lives into words if I wanted to. Why is this beast so terrible? Why did it have to get you? You have faced so many challenges in your 36 years, never would I imagine we would lose you to a pandemic. You are one of the strongest people I know and pushed through no matter what the Internet said, no matter what people wanted to think… you proved how amazing of a soul you are. I love you, to the moon and back.”She continued:“My brother fought COVID and unfortunately lost the battle. He has moved so many people through streaming. His 1.5 million on YouTube. The endless streamers on twitch. He fought so many demons, all while saving millions of people without even realizing it. I cannot believe this is happening. He withstood every stupid comment made by the people who wanted him to fail. He was amazing. He is amazing. I hate this so much.”Bashurverse had accumulated over 1.58 million subscribers on his YouTube channel and was an active Twitch member who posted content under the name “Toasty.”Tributes started pouring in on social media platforms after the information was announced online:Really sad to see Bashurverse pass.

Rip bashurverse— 💙Blue Bucket💙 (@BlueBucket13) September 14, 2021Bashurverse’s last tweet on August 26 included him speaking of his COVID treatment. He said:“Another fun thing about having COVID, I get two shots in my stomach every day”.Here’s hoping his family gets all the support and strength required to grieve Bashurverse’s passing.
