You were such a gift to the universe. I’m so grateful I was able to witness your smile, your energy and your music. Such a bright light. Your music got me through so much during my life. For that, I’m thankful. Until we meet again, fly high Hawk.

To watch Taylor perform, play a bit in a music video, or talk in an interview was such an awesome experience. It is obvious that it was 1000 times better to be around him in person. We lost a great, fantastic, awesome, [all the good adjectives] person.

When we as fans are hurting after someone we didn’t actually know but felt like we did dies suddenly, what does that say about a person? They were loved by many because of how they exuded goodness. It can’t be explained. I hope Taylor knows how loved he was by so many. R.I.P.💔🙏

This one hurts.
I lost a friend in January, unexpectedly. The sadness I felt that day and the days that followed are mirroring how I feel about this unfathomable and devastating loss
My heart hurts for his band mates - his brothers, his family and for all of us

Thank you for all the years Taylor. You're now in God's paradise, I guess he wanna hear you more than all of us here. Thank you for being Dave's wingman and creating all these amazing songs on earth. When we are reunited one day, we hope to hear your creations on the other side.

Heartbroken because Taylor still owed me $200 and what am I supposed to do call Dave or Pat to get my money? Smh like those two will ever pay up.

All my life was the entrance to my addiction to the Foo Fighters. Taylor had this swagger and composure that at the time wasn't as energetic anywhere else. His shared passion with me as a drummer will continue to inspire me, and generations to come.

Unbelievable that he has left this earth. My heart goes out to his wife and kids, to Dave and the entire FF family and all the fans like myself around the world. May you Rest In Peace and rock the hell out of the drums up in heaven with all the other musicians that have left us.

Taylor, you will be so missed. It's strange to mourn a person you've never personally known but you and the Foos invited us fans to get to know you on and off the stage. For that, I am thankful. Your mind was brilliant as well as your talent. Prayers to all mourning your loss 🖤
