"We send our deepest condolences to his family, friends and band mates in this difficult time."The band wanted to share this statement with all the fans of Dead On and fellow metal brethren throughout the world:
"The passing of Mike Raptis has deeply saddened us all. Mike was always a live wire, and souls that burn that brightly usually do not remain in this plane for too long. Even though Dead On had disbanded years ago, and several members have not had much contact with one another over that time, we will always be band mates, eternally locked in time and place. There is a brotherhood that is borne from those moments in time that is timeless. We wish Mike’s family peace during their most difficult time now, and in the days to come. RIP the Reaper...you will be missed."
