Very sorry for your loss. You only have one Mom. It's tough. (Mine has been gone since 2008.) Sending prayers your way.

Rest in peace to her. You gave us the chance to see her in your videos. She looked like a lovely person. My condolences John.

As someone who lives in Yorkshire hearing your mum talk made me smile .sending you all love Johnny

Dear! My mother’s passed away in 2018, my dad passed away in 2021. I know how it feels like. Soon I’ll be 35 and this pain is still here. I just hope that you’ll learn how to turn this pain into something positive, into an outpoure love. Your channel is one of the greatest ever imho. Yes, we are watching it here in Russia. Please, hold on. It’s unbearably hard. Hopes and prayers. You are the best ever. Everything will be alright. Cheers from Moscow (not the best place to live in right now unfortunately). Me and my younger brother (he is 25) - we love you and we believe in you. Stay strong. Love, Kita.

I’m incredibly sorry for your loss. I’ve been subscribed to your channel for 14 years, and I know how important she was in your life and how important she was to this channel. She fanned the flames of your love for video games.

Condolences brother 🙏 🤙💯,My Dad passed from Cancer at 54,then my brother passed away 6 months later at age 34 from personal issues...Time will heal everything brother, just remember the good times,those happy moments 🤙

Bro, I'm so sorry about your mom. I've seen when she was in the show. She seemed like a wonderful person and I'm sure she was she raised such a cool dude. May she rest in power

I’m new to this channel and want you to know that your mom was proud of you immensely. There’s no doubt about it. We are all proud of you. Thanks for the content.

I'm terrified for the day my parents die, but somehow, hearing you discuss it makes me feel better, more secure that this is indeed something we all endure and that it can still be handled with a degree of grace and positivity. Thank you for sharing this with us. I loved the video in which your mum sat down and answered questions -- what a character! A personality not easily forgotten. Best wishes to you, Johnny. EDIT: I know we'd all be delighted if you and Kim would stream, too!

She brought you into our lives Johnny...she'll live on through you and your viewers for a long long time to come ❤❤❤❤

I'm a bit late, but I just saw this video. My condolences to you and your whole family, losing a family member is never easy. I also want to take this as an opportunity to say a long overdue thank you, a bit over a decade ago now your videos helped a preteen me by giving me an escape while my dad was dying of brain cancer and deteriorating in front of my eyes.

I’m so sorry for your loss, I also lost my mum to cancer only last year and it was a very tough time. Your channel is my favourite for gaming on RU-vid and your enthusiasm is infectious and helped keep my spirits up so much. From Maidstone UK

Been watching your show for years and have never left a comment. Extremely sorry for your loss, and really enjoyed you sharing a couple beautiful moments with her on the show. As much as it hurts and I can't imagine, I'm glad to hear that you have a full 50 years of nothing but fond memories to reflect on with the best mom and dad. Take care of yourself and your family.

My dad was diagnosed with a less aggressive form of Leukemia recently, and I've been trying to capture all the memories I can with him, like you suggested. You're a great son. Take all the time you need to heal and process - we'll be here!

Sorry for your loss man. May she be in a better place and forever in your hearts. Prayers for you and your family.

From one random guy who lost his own mother a few months a go. Much love and grace, Keep going ahead and doing the things you love. I share your pain, and thoughts. Take care and keep your mum in your heart where-ever you go. Your mum sounds amazing.

My deepest condolences for your loss, My mother passed away 2 years ago and your channel has helped me a lot through those dark times.

I am so sorry for your loss Johnny. You sound like you were super close with your mom, and that is a relationship that is hard to lose. May she rest in peace and in comfort. Know you have super supportive friends, family, and fans.

Your mom still lives on in you and your being Johnny. I am sure you are who you are thanks to her, and by sharing who you are with your family and us the people that watch she is remembered and cherished by so many more people. I'm sorry for your loss and I thank you for your heartfelt advice.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. At times like these can't help but hope that there is something after this life, so we can reunite with loved ones that we have lost.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Your fan from Grimsby.

Johnny I just heard about this, I'm deeply sorry about your loss, she was an awesome mother and you were an amazing son. I'm sending you a huge hug Johnny, stay strong 🫂

My condolences. Your show has gotten me through some tough times and I'm glad you have great memories of your mom.

That episode in 2018 when you had your mom on the show was one of my favorites, and I never get tired of all the memories you share about your parents. I hope that continues and their memories will always stay with the show and all of us by extension. Take all the time you need to heal, Johnny, I admire your strength to be able to share so much already.

So sorry for your loss. Wishing you and yours love and healing 🌷

Johnny, I almost never comment on any video, but I wish you the best of strengths to pass this rough and dark times. I'm 31 and I don't know the pain of losing someone yet, but I can only imagine after hearing all you had to say in here. Your mum sounded like the best ever. Keep up, she''ll be watching the episodes from above as she always did.

My condolences brother. My mom passed away on March 1st. Nothing like losing a mother man. May she rest in peace and May God comfort you during this time.

I am so sorry for your loss. Stay strong John, we love and respect you so much. May your mother rest in peace.

Johnny you are truly the only channel I follow who is just one individual infront of a camera. Everything else is big multi person production or review outlet. You just seem like someone if life ever arranged itself I’d be the easiest friends with. Thank you for the genuine content and I’m rooting you in your future projects. Keep it fun, always.

John, I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. I lost my mom during the pandemic in 2020, and I know it's such a terrible thing to go through. I wish you well, and please take care of yourself. It sounds like you have a great team behind you there, and of course your fans will always be here for you as well. Don't rush the grieving period, but do what you feel is right. -Matt

Dear John, sorry to hear about your loss. I feel so many similarities in our lives. I am fast heading towards 50 and have lost my mum to terminal cancer, we used to talk every day and she was also from Yorkshire just like you mum and looked and sounded so incredibly like your mum. I also lost my dad first like you so my bond to my mum grew much stronger. Games have often been my solice and often it’s games and games music that ties me to periods in my heart and memories. I guess this is why I adore your show so much and get so much from it . I only wish I had a Kim when I was going through my loss and subsequent grief as it’s really tough facing those things alone. Thanks for show and all the time you give to it John

Virtual hugs

Sending you huge hugs and am so sorry to hear about you losing your mum. I lost my dad at the end of 2022, and it's definitely tough and takes a lot to process. Lean on your support system and the good memories, and take as much time as you need. x

Been watching you for years and never commented. I too lost my mom suddenly from heart attack on holiday cruise. She passed right in my arms. Surreal, fog brain, 5 stages of grief…..so sorry for your loss. One day at a time

Sorry for your loss. My own mother has had two heart attacks and the thought that she's probably not going to be around for many more years is a sad thought. Enjoy the time you got while you can because life is always just too short.

Sorry to hear John, offering my sincere condolences. As a long time follower I remember watching videos with your mom. Thanks for sharing this with us and the wonderful memories.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mum, I've been subbed to your channel for years & seeing her pop up now & again in your videos was something truly wonderful to see.

Lost my mom last year so I feel for you sir. It does get better, but everything reminds me of her. My heart goes out to you and your family. Glad to hear you have a great support system. that is so important

So sorry to hear about your moms passing man.

Much love man & sorry for your loss, I'm glad your mum was so supportive though, & it's awesome that you have roots in northern england

Lost my father in Sep 2022. There is no feeling like it, and nothing anyone can say. My most heartfelt condolences, brother. ❤️

So sorry to hear about you losing your mum. Sending lots of love to you and the family. And thanks so much for sharing those beautiful memories and videos of her with us she seemed like such a beautiful sweet person.

I loved meeting you those many years ago at TooManyGames in Philadelphia. It was a big moment for me and I cherish the memory to this day. I hope things get better for you soon Johnny, and I know you can get through it. Keep your head up and remember the good times.

I cried a lot going down to my mom's house and cried coming back (early in 09 when she passed). But she's in a better place. Same for you HCG! Cherish those videos and be the happy person we all know and love because we all support you!

I know its a few weeks after uploading, but thanks for chatting with me on Sunday of the con. The passion you have for this is wonderful and inspiring. Also never stop enjoying the Octopath music! And hopefully you have had some time to begin to process your mother's passing. Take care.

Very sorry to hear the loss of your wonderful mom. I lost mine back in 2021 at 61 years old. It’s hard. It broke me the first week, but having my wife and kids will helped me so much. Sending healthy healing your way!

Prayers man. I lost both mine in the last 18 months. Games sure help me get through it as well.

I'm sorry brother. Rest in peace . Take your time. I'm glad you have good people around you to help you through this tough time.

Sending my sincere condolences to you and your family during this difficult time. I lost my Mom in May 2022 and still working through it. Thanks for sharing and know it will get better. She will always be with you!

I am so sorry for your loss. Your channel has helped me through many losses in my lifetime, watching your videos every Sunday brings a sense of normality and routine back to my life when changes happen, especially unpleasant ones. You are very lucky to have Kim and your friends! Thank you for all the happiness and stability your videos have brought to me and many other people here. Something that put my mind at ease when going through the initial shock of grief is that grief isn't the absence of love, grief is the proof that the love is still there.

My condolences. I lost my dad to a 5.5. year cancer battle. Very hard, but had some of my best memories of him during that time. My wife and oldest got me thru that time. Always appreciate your Sun videos. Best wishes to you and your fam.

Sorry for your loss man. Losing your mom is one of the hardest losses you could ever have. Mine passed away in 2019 and it's extremely hard. Feels like a piece of you dies when you lose the one woman who unconditionally loves you and brought you into the world. Keep your head up. Make your mom proud and be strong man.

Thanks for sharing, so sorry for your loss. Its so awesome the relationship you had with your mom, you were definitely blessed.

You can tell you had great parents who raised a really nice, genuine man who I can tell doesn’t fight or get mean and nasty you seem to love where you’re at in life and surrounded by friends and family who love you and it’s just really cool to see the journey of parts of your life, from when you started this channel up til now I saw growth and just your love for old school games and gaming in general, just want to say that you’re an awesome person! And we definitely need more people in this world like you John just a positive attitude and sweet guy who enjoys doing what you do and we love to watch and be apart of your experiences! Thank you ❤

this is the most real game youtube channel and it’s been that way for almost two decades. videos like this is what it’s all about. we are more than just views, sponsorships and scripts. long live johnny millennium.

So sorry for your loss, Johnny. I lost my Mom a year ago Friday. Prayers for you and your family 🙏🏻❤

Beautiful chat to share, I'm sorry for your loss. Glad you cherished the time you had with your parents and that your family/friends are there for you. Video idea is great, wish I could hear/see my Dad again.

So sorry for you’re loss brother. Sending you a big virtual hug. Thank you for all the great vids over the years and sharing you’re family and friends with the rest of us.

Your mum reminds me of my dear old grandmum who was also from yorkshire. Hope you're taking all the time you need to process what's happened. I don't comment very often but I'm a longtime supporter of yours wishing you the very best johnny!

Soo sorry to hear about the loss of your mother buddy. Having gone thru it my heart goes out to you and your family. We all love u bud!

I’m so sorry about your mom. I lost my mom to cancer 5 years ago. I don’t miss her any less, but the pain softens and you’re able to think back with a smile. She’s a part of me, and I know your mom will always be a part of you. I wish the best for you, thank you for all the great videos!

Extremely sorry to hear about your loss Johnny, you have the support of everyone & your friends. I was living in York 5 yrs ago (ironically now in Vancouver) & suddenly remembered your British roots & mom were from there while watching an episode of yours there. Lovely place, historical!! ”Diagon alley” was wonderful!

So sorry for your loss, John. You speak beautifully and warmly of your mom and family. Best wishes.

My condolences, Johnny. I can't image. Both of my parents are in their early 70s now and I worry about them every day. Creating videos talking with our parents is a fantastic suggestion.

Much love to your mum H.C.G and my condolences. A beautiful video you have dedicated and a way to keep her memory alive. Was touching and feel those nostalgia moments with you. xoxo

So sorry for you Johnny. What a wonderful person/mother. Those videos btw you two shared on here are memories for you to remember. Glad you have someone like Kim by your side through everything.

Aww Johnny. So sorry to hear about your loss. Losing a mother is something that is hard to explain, and you are right, it’s something you will deal with for the rest of your life. Sending you much strength and love through this tough time. Love will get you through!

Praying for you buddy. I'm so glad I got to see your mom in your video. Sweet lady. A mother is so special to her son

Johnny, so sorry for your loss!. Sending thoughts and prayers over from the UK

Thank you for sharing ❤ condolences and now I have your intervirw with her to watch! I lost my dad suddenly when I was 16 and it was also so difficult. I was lucky to have some really old videos of him and it's surreal watching them. I don't as much for my mom now and thank you for that suggestion. I really hope to meet you someday. Your videos always bring me comfort :)

Condolences to you for your mom. I too have been out of it, lately. Having had to resign my job because of severe obsessive compulsive disorder. Thanks for your videos. I too wax nostalgic for the late 90s era of gaming. BTW the Social Security system in America needs major reform, from my experience with a disability Bes wishes

Sorry for your loss Johnny, it sounds like your mother lived a blessed life and it's great that you have so many years of wonderful memories to look back on. Thank you for your continued dedication to the channel and for keeping us in the loop about things happening in your personal life. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family during this difficult time.

Sorry for your loss. Love your content thanks for everything you do

I hope she is in peace and watching over you, and I wish you and your family the best, sounds like you had the ideal parents and a perfect mother 👍❤️

Hey John, I'm really sorry to hear about your mom's passing. She was clearly such a huge part of your life, especially with your RU-vid channel. I can't imagine how much you must miss her daily advice and support. Just want you to know, she'd be incredibly proud of what you've built with your channel. It's been a source of comfort for so many, just like she was for you. Even though she's not physically here, her influence lives on through your work. Sending lots of love and strength from Scotland your way during this tough time.

God bless your heart! I lost my mum as well recently, right at the end of last year. I agree the support your remaining family gives to you is crucial, and I had problems with them, but her death forged us stronger and stronger together, we came out better.

My condolences for you loss Johnny. Wishing you and your family the best. Glad you have the video to watch and remember. I'm going to watch that clip

My condolences. Thank you for all you do, also I would love to see streams in the future!

Johnny, I've been subbed to your channel since 2010 or 2009. And your channel is one i looked forward too and once i start watching your videos, I binge watch them for hours. I haven't been watching your channel lately. However when I do, you always bring a smile to my face and just how positive you are. You are a great man and someone to look up too. sorry for your loss. All I can say is continue being you.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Johnny. From her appearances on the channel, I could tell she was an amazing woman.

I’m so sorry for you loss. I love your vidoes. Thank you for being a lovely character. I’ve been watching for years.

I am sorry for your loss. I lost my grandpa a couple months ago. The pain of losing someone you love is relatable. Prayers for you and your family.

Condolences and hugs to you Johnny ❤ Your superpower is your closest people and especially your absolute strong positive mind. Stay strong buddy!

I'm so very sorry for your loss. I empathize deeply. My best to you and your family. I love your channel. You have such a warm, engaging, inviting, passionate energy ... really elevates the content.

I'm so sorry for you losing your mother. Johnny, you are so right about having pictures and videos of our families. It helps us remember and cherish many memories that otherwise would unfortunately be very hard to remember or easily forgotten about.

Really touched by this video. Thank you for sharing this with us. All the best to you and your family.

Sorry for your loss my friend. I am too very close with my Mother. I have hopes to make it as well to Portland this year. I am going to take your advice and take a video of my Mom and myself talking.

I'm so sorry about your loss, but I'm happy that you had such amazing parents. And it shows. You all have made the world a better place.

Big hugs dude . I lots my mum in 2020 to Cancer. We're all here for you . Take your time xxx much love from a Yorkshire man living in Devon xxx

Johnny, so sorry to hear this. Your mom was so supportive of you and the show. What a blessing and a wonderful role model to you. Loved when she was on the show. "Sega!" We all send our thoughts, condolences, and strength to you during this difficult time. 🙏🙏

So sorry to hear that your mom passed away. Take all the time you need ❤

Take all the time you need and I'm sorry for what you're going through. Been watching the show for 10 years now, and when my father suddenly passed away a couple years ago, I remember watching all of your videos as an escape. It helped so much.

So sorry for your loss, glad to hear you have no regrets and such great support, you're one of the most wholesome people on RU-vid... Love video games but I keep coming here for more than that. Condolences from a fan of you as a person.

Just only heard about your mom here, my condolences for your loss. Nice to hear your mom watched every episode, shows she was proud of your work!

Thanks for sharing your relationship with your mother. And thanks for being so transparent and vulnerable during a tough time. Keep your Head up man

Very sweet to stop down and talk about your sweet mum. Once again my deepest condolences to your and your family. Take all the time you need. I lost a lot of loves in 2020 and the bounce back was not quick. Good you have a great support team around you. You'll need it.

Aw dude that's so rough. My condolences. Very glad to see you have people that support you throughout this difficult time.

I'm so sad to hear of your loss. I'm glad to know you are being strong and you are focusing on the good memories and the happy times. I know your mum is still watching your shows and i'm sure she is enjoying them. All the best my friend.
