I had heard about him, but I never realized what he was going through or just how great of a man he was, to those around him and the Steem community as a whole... The Steem community has lost a great member.

Cattle die, | and kinsmen die,
And so one dies one's self;
But a noble name | will never die,
If good renown one gets.

Cattle die, | and kinsmen die,
And so one dies one's self;
One thing now | that never dies,
The fame of a dead man's deeds.

- Hovamol 77-78, The Poetic Edda
