OT: Sad news

["cdreramius" <cdreramius@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yesterday my brother Tony lost his battle with cancer.

Those of you who go back that far would remember him as the self 
confessed father of B/W/X shipping and author of the 
Terra/Trinity/Destiny series as well as numerous other stories 
including 'House of Scooby.

In real life, Tony was a dedicated naval officer who served with 
distinction in a number of trouble spots throughout the world.

One of the last things he requested was that I continue his stories, 
including his last fic 'Per Omnia Saecula Saeculorum'.

I intend to fully honour Tony's request.

If anyone wishes to contact me off list you can do so at

The HMAS SYDNEY prayer

Let me live, O Mighty Master, 
Through this war. Yet if I'm slain 
Tasting triumph and disaster 
Joy, and not too much of pain 
Let me roam the raging waters 
For a while to love and laugh 
And when I'm beneath the ocean, 
Let this be my Epitaph -

There sleeps one who took his chances 
In that war-crazed tragic hell 
Battled luck and circumstances, 
Loved and laughed, but fought and fell 
Victor, then he did no crowing 
Wounded, then he did not wail; 
Cursed and swore, but kept going, 
Never let his courage fail.

He was fallible and human, 
Therefore loved and understood 
By his fellow men and women 
Whether good, or not so good. 
Kept his spirit undiminished 
Had a laugh for every friend, 
Fought for freedom till it finished, 
Lived, loved, laughed, until the end.
