Last week, a Destiny clan named DoD Legion lost a member, Joshua R. Stokell, who passed away after a lifelong battle with cystic fibrosis. A fellow clan member who goes by the handle Ln_Wanderer on Reddit put out a call on the Destiny sub-Reddit, asking dellow Destiny players to send video clips the clan can put together as a kind of memorial montage.

"As expected, you the Destiny community, came through is an amazing way," Ln_Wanderer wrote. "More than 250 people have stopped by here and the Bungie forum to offer your condolences and to submit video clips. From the bottom of our hearts- Thank You! We are proud to honor our friend with the following video:"

The 3-minute video shows Destiny players firing their guns in unison, saluting, and waving goodbye from all around the game's universe in honor of Stokell, or TheSquashPhD, as he was known in the game.

In other Destiny news, Bungie was at E3 2015 to announce the newest expansion for the game, The Taken King, which launches on September 15.
