It is with great sadness we hear of the fate of a great
adventurer, leader, and friend to many. Jon Johnson, character Highlord
Krueger, the GM of Iron Brigade on Chesapeake, lost his real life in
the Great Lake of Lake Erie, USA, on September 17. The following information

Prince of Daemondred of the Order of the
Sapphire Rose to the people of PaxLair:
Today Jamlyn Hakkendyn of the Order of the Sapphire Rose, placed a
guildstone in front of the house in front of our tower in memory of
Highlord Krueger GM of Iron Brigade. Clip from guilds email:
"When Lexia and i got back from the airport, i heard of Highlord
Krueger's death in real life. The leader of IB, Iron Brigade. We hade a
funeral tonight at the meeting, i cried as well as alot of others. This
game is more then, "just" a game, because we make Real Life friends, and
thats what makes this not "just any game". He died in a boating accident
on Lake Eerie... GMs are making a memorial for him. I am going to lake
Erie with Lexia in the morning to go boating, how ironic. Have a safe
weekend everyone, HLK will always be with us."
- Jamlyn Hakkendyn GM of OsR
During our Festival of Races this eve we will hold a remembrance ceremony
on top of the Mage Tower. I ask all races and groups to come in peace to pay
their respects. I invite a master bard to play soft music while people
assemble and speak of their friendship with Highlord Krueger. Then we will
have a moment of silence in his honor.
Tributes may be made at the remembrance and on the Iron Brigade
messageboard and/or the PaxLair messageboard.
