G'day Eagles old and new

It is with great sadness that i announce the passing of a good friend and Great Illyrian, Bellus Rex/ Jook Ap Rys / Joey Varacalli. He was great member here and great friend on facebook, long conversations we had about family, historical battles, italians, faith and cooking. He leaves behind a wife and 12yo son, Dawn and Daniel.

I thought it fittting to show you his first mail about becoming an Eagle. He was one of the most positive people i have met and those of you who never met him can regret not having known the man.

There are those of you who were allies and opponents/enemies, and know the quality of the man, his poise and dignity, his tenacity and compassion, his humour and hope.

For those of you who feel so inclined, please donate of few dollars to his funeral via the following link

For those of a faith, please say a prayer for his family, he has  a cousin here in Adelaide, he and i will be getting together to share a beer or two and remenisce.

With much sadness

HATH

Greetings Hathaldir,

I wasn't sure who handled your recuiting, so I thought you could point me in the right direction!  Our little alliance at RIF is getting very lonely...it seems the wait for factions could be a long one. Pet and Chomsky and I really enjoyed working with your people during the tourney, and they both talked about how much they liked the culture you have there when they were your

guests. I'm online pretty much round the clock, since I'm lucky enough to be able to write from home, and I would love to be part of an active, fun group of players...

 

Bright skies and fair winds,

Bellus

There's worse blokes than me!!

Very sad news.  Bellus was a good friend and a great player.  Just thoroughly decent, start to finish.  He will be missed.

My prayers are with his family.
