Our (as in ENWorld's) tribute to Gary

[Olgar Shiverstone]

Thanks Michael.

And thanks to Gary.

Life may be finite, but the adventures he gave us are infinite.

Michael,

This is a phenomenal gesture.

Thank you.

I think this is a really touching gesture. I am actually looking forward to seeing it if they display it at the funeral. It will be nice knowing my name is on the list when I'm there. As weird as it sounds, I'm quite proud to be a member of Enworld as I visit here at least 3 times a day.

As much as I've grown to hate Wisconsin winters and look forward to completing our relocation to Reno NV (wife's been there for 6 weeks now), I feel grateful that I am here now so that I can be there to honor someone who had such a profound effect on my life.

Thanks again for doing such a nice thing on our behalf.

-James

I called ahead to the funeral home and spoke with the director of the service to insure it could be displayed, and then asked that it be displayed along with the flower arrangement, probably on the wall behind it. The poster has two mounting gromits, so they shouldn't have too much trouble with it. If you could please, I would dearly love to see it photographed alongside the arrangement.

Beautiful gesture. Thanks Michael.

I'll bring a camera.

And before anyone wastes an hour of their life hunting it down, I did forget to block Gary's own screen name ( Col_Pladoh ) from being displayed in the list - so it's in there somewhere.

Which I find oddly appropriate.

Since the list presumably includes Angelsboi, Chairman Kaga, and others that are with us in spirit, I don't see anything wrong with it.

I didn't take time to do any filtration for members known to have passed away so yes, their names are there. I set the filters at posts > 10 and user isn't banned. Of the nearly 60,000 registered users, 9,819 fit that criteria.

Thanks, Michael.

It took me a while, but I did manage to find my user name.

Hey Michael

Thanks for doing this. I can't make the funeral, but through this I can be there to pay my respects in some small way.
