In a Facebook post published shortly after his passing, Angus Cloud's mother recalled his final moments and insisted that her son did not take his own life, despite what was trending online at the time.

“He was reorganizing his room and placing items around the house with the intent to stay a while in the home he loved,” she recalled. “He spoke of his intent to help provide for his sisters at college, and also help his mom emotionally and financially. He did not intend to end his life. When we hugged goodnight we said how much we loved each other and he said he would see me in the morning.”

She admitted that she didn’t know “if or what he may have put in his body after that. I only know that he put his head on the desk where he was working on art projects, fell asleep, and didn’t wake up.” Lisa went on to say, “We may find out that he overdosed accidentally and tragically, but it’s abundantly clear that he did not intend to check out of this world.”

His work in Euphoria became a lightning rod for his generation and opened up a conversation about compassion, loyalty, acceptance, and love,” she continued before shutting down the notion that he had taken his own life.

“Social media posts have suggested his death was intentional. I want you to know that is not the case," she concluded. "To honor his memory, please make random acts of kindness a part of your daily life. Bless your hearts."
