Thinking About an Old Friend, Long Gone

My on-line friend and fellow author, Fiondil, died on this date in 2015. Arthur and I chatted on-line, he was a good friend who allowed me to play in his playground occasionally. He was a deeply religious man who was well traveled (he taught school in China for several years and traveled elsewhere as well). He was a writer with a passion in Tolkien's broader universe, and his Namo is the vision of that character that I'll carry with me forever. His tales are collected on the "Stories of Arda" website. I highly recommend them. He had a deep knowledge of Tolkien's universe, but put his own stamp on it. RIP Arthur.
