The Death of Aiken Drum (Community)
The Death of Aiken Drum // Communitystrike rapierDec 29, 2005, 10:03pm
Dear Friends,
It is my most profound displeasure to announce the death of my good friend Aiken Drum, a long time user of Active Worlds, one of the original Gatekeepers, funny, engaging, skilful and well liked; he was one heck of a bloke. Aiken was sadly found dead this Christmas morning, his death is a great loss us all, the wider world, and especially his family; Aiken was expecting his first grandchild soon. I would like to pay special consideration to one of Aikens closest friends in both AW and RL, Flynn1, now a tourist, who is at this time trying to come to terms with the loss of her dearest friend and I invite everyone to give her the support of friendship. A memorial build has been created for Aiken in AW at 8857.05S 2047.09E 0.30a Wish you were still here uncle Aiken dude {:¬( - Mark Randall veraDec 30, 2005, 12:58am

Aiken has been around for awhile... I know this isn't much, but I'm at least
giving him a tombstone in my graveyard next to Daphne's. I'll put in some flowers and stuff... least I could do. If anyone wants to suggest anything to put on the tombstone (or maybe whatever is on his RL tomb) please fire off an email to me - DarianKnight at gmail.com My condolences... May Aiken rest in peace.

Ok :)
No point in making multiple places. I have my own memorial for Daphne, she was a friend and mentor to me before she passed. Also placed a virtual headstone for my own grandmother who passed this summer. [View Quote] |
