Rick May

Richard J. May, commonly known as Rick May, was a voice actor, one of his famous roles being the Soldier from Team Fortress 2. On April of 2020, May passed away due to complications related to COVID. People have since paid their respects to him in media that concern the Soldier and Rick May himself, often quoting some of his lines such as "Godspeed you magnificant bastard" and "You were good son, real good; maybe even the best." Valve also added statues of the Soldier that played some of his lines to certain maps in the game as well as a new soundtrack titled 'Saluting the Fallen' which played on the home screen during the month of May that year.
