The late actor, Angus Cloud, known for his role in the hit series “Euphoria,” will be commemorated by his friends and family on the second anniversary of his untimely death. Angus tragically passed away on July 31, 2023, at the age of 25 due to an accidental overdose. In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Angus’s mother, Lisa, revealed the special way in which his close friends, known as ‘Homies’, plan to honour him.
According to Lisa, the ‘Homies’ will be creating graffiti art and adding to a mural located in a place that was dear to Angus’s heart. The mural site holds sentimental value to the family as it was a place where Angus would frequent daily. Lisa fondly recalls, “Conor stopped in that corner store every day,” reminiscing about her son, whose full name was Conor Angus Cloud Hickey.
Reflecting on Angus’s passing, Lisa shared that the outpouring of love and support from fans and the community has been incredibly touching. She emphasized that Angus was not just an actor but a beautiful soul, deeply missed by those who knew him. Despite the tragedy of losing Angus, Lisa expressed gratitude for the impact her son had on others during his life.
As the second anniversary of Angus’s death approaches, Lisa provided an update on the initiatives undertaken to honour his memory. The establishment of Cloud Park, a skate park dedicated to Angus, is still in progress. Last year, some of Angus’s belongings were auctioned off, with a portion of the proceeds contributing to the opening of an outdoor studio space for artists and aiding those affected by the Los Angeles fires.
In her heartfelt statement, Lisa shared a touching family update, revealing that both her daughters have recently graduated from college. While grappling with her grief, Lisa strives to focus on the blessings of having had Angus in their lives for 25 years. She highlighted Angus’s enduring impact, noting how his values of wonder, creativity, and generosity continue to inspire those who knew him and even those who didn’t.
Amidst the profound loss, Lisa candidly expressed the ongoing struggle with grief, likening it to holding back an overwhelming tidal wave. She underscored the importance of love as an action, urging others to embrace each day with wonder and curiosity, much like Angus did. Lisa’s poignant words serve as a tribute to her son’s spirit and the values he embodied throughout his life.
As the anniversary of Angus Cloud’s passing approaches, the enduring love and admiration for the talented actor remain palpable. The commemorative gestures planned by his loved ones not only honour his memory but also serve as a testament to the lasting impact he had on all who knew him. Angus Cloud may have left this world too soon, but his legacy lives on through the memories and moments shared with those whose lives he touched.
