Rob Pitts’ Heartfelt Video Before Passing Away

However, he was smiling in almost every picture, and he left a heartwarming message for all his fans and viewers.

“You know I always have advice, and this time it’s if your body is telling you something is wrong, don’t stop until you figure it out. Ask questions and get answers.

He added,

“Thank you for listening to my story over the years.
If my story impacted you, I would love to hear about it
Until next time, Rabbit”.

Moreover, he also mentioned how the “love of his life” had been with him throughout the tough journey.

Rabbit was very appreciative of her presence in his life despite being aware of his disease.

While bedridden, he had written for her,

“Luckily she doesn’t mind doing long-term things with a short-term guy.”

The news of his demise was not confirmed, and the video only suggested that he was “dying” due to the severity of his disease.

A few hours after the video was posted, his videographer Jeff confirmed with a comment on the same video,

“Hey everyone, this is Jeff (Rob’s Videographer). I am with him now in Hospice. He just passed at 21:45 on 08/25/2024. I will be sure to preserve the channel. He will be missed and we will never forget him!”
