In memory of Dare, see the whole worlds sorrow over the loss of Dare here.
You’re the man DARE.
Your kung fu is in a category of its own.
Your name will live well beyond your life span.
Your work inspired me all the way from Switzerland to Sacramento, CA.
Your styles were what we all dreamed about manifesting as kids.
Your art spoke to millions of conscious heads world wide.
Your legacy sets a bar of what we all aspire to achieve in this game.
You showed many that heaven could be a place on earth in ones mind.
I hope you’re in an even better place now.
Respect.
