The lawn mowing photo is great! We should all do yard work in garb.

I'll have to take your word for it. I have yet to have the pleasure of meeting him.

We looked up to see that image crossing the yard, and had the same exact thought.

Thank you, I didn't have any pictures of him. I was afraid that I would have to depend on my memory.

I haven't seen him in a while. I had not realized that his beard had silvered that much more, or is it just that he let it grow out?

I really like the one I stole for his White Scarf profile at www.aerapier.org as he has that very pleased with himself expression that some of us can spot in his chuckling mein.

Here is a memory that influences every thought that I have of him... After the end of Dorinda I's Queen's Rapier Championship, he took claim of an empty list and started calling out names of people to come fight him. I was quickly called over, and off I ran to fight The Duke. I was a newly made Alce (by him and Meirwen two months prior) and wanted to prove him correct in his assessment. We went at it, and a couple of times, he would throw a hand block that would put all of that power of his on my quillon and leave me helpless. He then on another pass popped my blade out of my hand. This was getting tougher and tougher, trying to land a touch on him. On a subsequent pass, I caught the right timing * and disarmed him! * I was thrilled and ready to ask for him to yield ...when he stepped forward, grabbed my head in his to big hands, and had me dance around like a marionette. Through a jostled voice, I stuttered, "Your Grace?" and (this is the part that sticks with me) he giggled like a little kid.

It is one of my favorite fencing memories period, and it is so typical of him.

I shall - I looked for the box this evening, but I think it will take some unearthing (mid-renovation boxing-of-things is a disaster). But I know I have some of his first Coronation, for example.

Thank you in turn for your excellent letter this morning. (I saw it via Arianna) It spoke to me and reminded me so much of him. (And of Gyrth, it must be said).

Watch this space....

You are very welcome. Some time we need to scare everyone and actually sit and share memories of that event and others.

I thought of Gyrth today.

Saw the link on one of my lists. Thank you for posting this. It's horrible, but not as horrible as some other ways of dieing. The pictures of him with the kid are absolutely fantastic.

Ekat,
Thanks for sharing these. I did not know Morghun well but the news was a total shock to my system. It seems impossible that we are losing someone so vital to such a random accident. My prayers are with you all.

(I hope you don't mind I added you to my friend's list. This is Megan who lives with Lochac at Pennsic.)

I'm not really sure why, but they do. The you-tube video was amazing. You and the rest of your household have really been so gracious by allowing all of us to share your memories. Thank you.

Ya know, there's something funny about these pictures. Morghun's beard looks as white as mine. I never noticed it in person. Lots of memories over many years.

Most of us will be seeing him again... and again.

Gavin

Thank you so much...

Somehow, the best picture is the most candid... although I'm still stuck between dragging the lawnmower and playing with the baby ;)

Thank you again for posting these.

I didn't realize until today that I had come to think of him as one of the immortals. I can hardly imagine Aethelmearc without him.

Yes. Immortal. Its going to take a long time to fully comprehend.

Thank you, Your Excellency, for posting these pictures. Time to mine the old boxes for forgotten gems.
