[MR] RIP Sir Patri du Chat Gris.

[jbrmm266 at aol.com]

I have learned that Sir Patri du Chat Gris, Knight, Master of the Laurel, Master of the Pelican, and holder of numerous awards from the East Kingdom and his beloved Barony of Carolingia, left this world yesterday. May he rest in peace and delight.
 
I knew Sir Patri from my early days in the Known World when I lived up in the area between what was then the Shire of the Bridge and the Barony Beyond the Mountain, in AS IX.
 
Sir Patri was a quiet, diminutive man whose knowledge and skill far overshadowed his physical presence.
 
A gentle soul, yet skilled in the arts of defence and of war, Sir Patri was a force to be reckoned with in the Lists, on the field of battle, or in debate. 
 
He was aye ready to serve his kingdom and was a shining example of the virtues of chivalry and courtesy to all.
 
I trust that the angels guiding him to heaven danced a stately pavanne as they escorted him.
 
Rest in peace, most excellent gentleman. May your memory inspire others as your life did.
 
Your servant aye
Donal Mac Ruiseart
