Sorry to bring everyone down with this news, but yesterday was the second anniversary of Joe Ranft’s passing. Joe, I wish I could meet you when I get my animating job at Pixar, but fate interviened . Rest in peace, buddy. We all miss you terribly. 
Rest in peace, Joe. =(
Dear Joe, I know you are in a safer, happier place now. We miss you buddy. Thanks for everything.
Thank you for all of the laughs, Joe. We miss you…
He was a friend of my father’s, actually. Dad was pretty depressed when he heard the news.

Oh, I feel so sorry for your dad Mitch. But I think it was pretty cool that he got to know someone so incredible and so talented.
We miss you, Joe…
Thank you for everything…
It’s so sad that Joe passed away, especially since he was such a talented guy. It doesn’t seem like it’s been two years, at all. RIP, Mr. Ranft.
Great man…great loss. Thanks Joe for everything 
Joe, you were the heart and soul of our beloved Pixar. We’ll miss you, buddy.
The Star Swordsman - Yeah. According to my dad, he was a really nice gentleman. I don’t doubt that for a second…
On the Pixar DVD extras, you seemed like a really cool guy Joe. I’m sure Pixar will never be the same without you. RIP.
You’ll always have a place in the Pixar family and in the hearts of your fans.
Rest in peace, Joe Ranft.

Honestly, it still hurts. It feels like yesterday… still an open wound.
Everybody misses you so much. RIP.
