Farewell to a friend

Today, while I was happily driving my rental boat around the waters of Howe Sound, watching the sleepy seals and sea lions, others were getting terrible news. Then my phone rang. I am so speechless that I’ll let someone else give farewell.

« ... But to Sam the evening deepened to darkness as he stood at the Haven; and as he looked at the grey sea he saw only a shadow on the waters that was soon lost in the West. There still he stood far into the night, hearing only the sigh and murmur of the waves on the shores of Middle-earth, and the sound of them sank deep into his heart. Beside him stood Merry and Pippin, and they were silent.

At last the three companions turned away, and never again looking back they rode slowly homewards; and they spoke no word to one another until they came back to the Shire, but each had great comfort in his friends on the long grey road. »

J.R.R. Tolkien - The Return of the King

Godspeed to you. We’ll all miss you dearly.

    deep pain because,
    being your friend,
    he must have been a beautiful human being. »
