We've received word that Ezra Chatterton, the young fan who visited Blizzard's studios last year through the Make-A-Wish Foundation to fulfill his wish of designing quests for World of Warcraft, has passed on.

Early last week, we received word that Ezra Chatterton had passed away. For those of you unfamiliar with this courageous young man, Ezra visited Blizzard Entertainment in 2007 through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, armed with the desire to design and implement his own quest in World of Warcraft. To this day, we remain inspired by the creativity, intelligence, and passion he displayed during his visit. We were extremely fortunate to have had a chance to get to know and work with Ezra, and our sincerest condolences go out to his family and friends.

    I think its wonderful that boy got to live his dreams before passing on. I would love to see the content that he created in game.

    Was he able to get a quest implemented? It would be nice to see people do it as a token of remeberance to him.

    It is absolutely heartbreaking to see children afflicted with this horrible, insidious disease.

    Hi everyone,

    What a sad story, however it is wonderful that Ezra's quest was implemented.  The questline he created can be found in Bloodhoof Village and it is entitled Kyle's Gone Missing.  Kyle is the name of Ezra's dog.  I am attaching the wowwiki description.

    My heart truly does go out to Ezra's family.  It is so sad when a child passes on.

    Very sad news indeed.

    I was reminded about this very story the other month when I rolled a Tauren for the first time and picked up the quest. At first it took me by suprise as the NPC actually speaks to you.

    A nice gesture by the devs and a lasting tribute to a very brave kid.

    So very sad to see a life snuffed out at such a young age.  Kudos to Blizzard for making a memorable moment in this poor child's short life.  My condolences to all who loved him and there seem to be many.

    I love his quest, it's great he got to customize the voice of the character for his quest.  When I heard news of his passing on, I was saddened, I wish I could have gotten to know the young lad.  This is quite saddening indeed.  I give his family, friends, and guild-mates my condolences...  may his essence live on forever in our memories...
