Mar 9, 2008 - Gary was a great man. Many don't realize how this man, along with many others changed the world for the better. He brought people together, made them feel better about their lives, and so much more. Words cannot express my sadness. Every time I see this video, I cry a little.

Mar 22, 2008 - I was told a long time ago, that a person should endeavor to live in such a way, so that when they passed on, even the undertaker would be saddened by their passing....Gary Gygax was one of those people. We'll miss you Gary, always.
