Rel,
I know that it may be a little while before you read this, as I don't know how busy you'll be here and there the next day or so; but I am so sorry to hear this. It hit me suddenly when I realized who you were talking about, just from our conversations at the game day.
I'm sorry that someone so close has passed away. I'm also sorry I never had the chance to meet him. I've seen a lot of my family pass away in my time, but I've never had someone that close as a peer to do so.
If you ever need to spout off to a familiar-yet-new ear, please let me know, anytime. I'm glad that you're being strong about it so far, and even gladder that you and your wife and being strong for his S.O.
My and my wife send our thoughts and prayers.

I'm sorry for your lost and thank you for taking the time to tell your story with your friend. I know it sounds contrived but he's gone onto a better place and there's no need to worry if he's okay.
Hang in there and just remember all the good times you had together.

If it means anything, and at the risk of sounding corny, Ted's in a place where no shadows fall. Be thankful for the memories you have, and never let your memories of him disappear.
I am truly sorry.

it sounds like he was a good friend; I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm glad you have a wife and child to help you get through this.
I think anyone that has a long-time friend like that is especially lucky.

I also feel sorry for your loss, although I did not know him.
It doesn't sound wierd to me that you are not crying; although I have never lost a close friend or familiy mamber, I never really cried during the most emotionally low time of my life, I only shed a few tears once in a while when I remembered.
I still don't know why.
My prayers go with you and Ted's family.

Rel,
Your story about Ted really hit home. See, the first day of Junior High, I met a friend who was also into D&D. His name was Anthony. Anthony knew a guy named Brett (who posts here as El Sose), and I knew a guy named Jeremy. We all hit it off and loved gaming. While we lived some distance apart, we would always meet at Tony's house because he had the coolest (baby blue) coffee table and two couches, and a pool. Those years we formed a bond that has not been broken by many of the conventions in our society. We now refer to ourselves as the Core Four. We are like brothers. I find myself in the role of Ted, as I am the one that has gone away and occasionally shows up for a one off. And your story makes me realise how hard it would be should we loose one. I feel for your loss, and my prayers are with you.
Aaron.

It is my thought that perhaps we should open a ENWorld Book of the Dead to comemorate ENworlders that have died and to keep track of the names that have been retired.
