Prospero - Sad News

[robertlouis]

Hi All, this is a brief return as the bearer of sad news. Prospero, who graced these pages for so long with his wit, compassion and wisdom,passed away earlier this week after a brave and painful battle with cancer. I'm thankful to HA for being the portal for the close friendship that he and I enjoyed in the last few years, and I know that those of you who had dealings with him either on the boards or in person will remember him fondly. I've lost a very dear friend and I will miss him more than I can say.

I will also remember his friendship over the years. A nice guy. RIP Prospero

Very, very sad news. In the short period we overlapped here, he was always very kind.

Will raise a glass.

Slainte.

OMG !! That is such sad news. He was a legend on the TS forums, especially here on HA. He gave me really good advice over the past 10 years or so. R.I.P. Prospero

Hopefully you are with the angels & maybe a few of them might be hung.

Very sad news

I had the pleasure of a good friendship with Richard

He was a kind, generous, good man and I , and many others, will miss his wisdom and advice a great deal

RIP

Thanks for the update Robert Louis.
Prospero and I talked when he first found out - and a few times since. Although I never got a chance to meet him, as a moderator on this board (and before) I respected and really liked him a lot, and it's a shame were never able to get together for that drink we'd promised (I'm still holding you to a drink up North, RL - and we'll have a toast to Prospero).

As long time moderator to the board, I think a permanent post on Fallen Angels & Lost Devils is in order.

RIP - and thank you for everything.

I had the pleasure of receiving personal messages from him "time to time" offering advice and asking me of my adventures with certain girls, I felt I knew him although never meeting him, sad news indeed and condolences to his family......RIP old chap.

Rip.

Rest in peace.

I knew him in person and met him - very nice and intelligent man.
