I never met him, but I just heard of the passing of Syr Bear the Wallsbane. To quote Mistress Arianna of Wynthrope: "I remember him enthusiastically dancing with all the ladies at his first event in the Rhydderich Hael, arguing about the best structure and laws for the proposed Principality that became AEthelmearc, fighting heavy with a big grin on his face, joyfully bestowing awards as Prince (and for both reigns requiring the scribes to list his Princess' name first on the scrolls), giving me literal Bear hugs whenever we met, and standing as a bulwark for honor and kindness. He created the Order of the Jewel of AEthelmearc, and always spoke his mind." #SCA #MySCA #Æthelmearc #BMDL https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnumf7kr2-O/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
