Rest in peace dad rip @wales

trystan (56) in wales • 5 years ago

Devastated @wales

Cant believe your gone so suddenly
Cant hold back the tears
So many things left unsaid.
You did the best any father could do, better than your own.
You where my father my daddy my hero.
Never thought i would see you go mr invincible
Feel Gutted inside.
Love you dad im sorry i never said it
You will be missed granddad.
I hope your soul has joined the eternal bliss you longed for.
Thank you for the knowledge you gave me and the lessons you taught me.
Rest in peace dad.
Love Trystan

Wales will defintely be missed 😥 I knew him mostly as a member of PowerHouseCreatives, where he frequented the chats and kept charmed us with his simplicity and philosophical musings, a true dichotomy of his wonderful character. One moment he would be telling us about the toast and tea he was having for breakfast and then post something so deep it would leave us scratching our heads until we gathered the magnitude of what he was saying. He was poetic, with a complexity of imagery that was difficult to grasp at times, but full of meaning forethought. One of my favorites of all his writings was the one titled: Where old beat-up suitcases go to die and I will always recall that piece when I think of him.

R.I.P. @wales and soar with the angels 💖

I wanted so much to make direct contact with you but was also trying to be mindful of your "space"... Would love to connect directly... not sure what platforms you are on? Let me know so we can connect please! Would love to get to know you more too! Your dad was SUCH a beautiful person and I don't doubt for a second that we would get along just as fabulously. :)

Dear @trystan while I was out Christmas shopping this message came in and just now I opened it and read the devistating news. First I want to condolence you and all the loved ones around your dad. A man I came to know many months ago always in for a chat in our Powerhousecreatives home. Both loving and fierce about all the aspects of life both on and offline. I remember the photo camera we raised so he could do the photo blogs. I remember the .quote-bot-convos in the weeee hours of the night. I am glad we got to talk Friday when the first poll came in and were counting down. And we asked him to come to voice chat yesterday! Our server moments are here so I will read some off them back with a glass of wine, and I will say cheers to the nearest star I see and just remember the icon we lost. My and Steemits second icon this year unfortunately , our server and the platform will never be the same and strenght will be needed! Rest me to say that if you ever need a helping steemit hand just let me know and I will be there just because a son of @wales must be a great person to.
A big hug from The Netherlands

In my short time in the community, Wales was one of the people I most talked with and learned from. His cryptic writing was always filled with wisdom as well as creative dimensions that brought us out of linear thought. I hope that as you say he has found liberation and is now enjoying beyond this earthly realm.

Wish you the best, I'm sure he knew you loved him. Love is not so much about saying it, but about feeling it.

@trystan I am so sorry about your loss. Your father was a brilliant man, we will miss him dearly. His writing was very special, words worth pondering on many levels. He loved the comments, loved it when you understood the underlying meaning of his writing. A huge loss for the Steemit community. I'm sure your father knew you loved him, cherish your memories. Having all of his wonderful writing here on the platform will be a wonderful legacy to his grandchildren. They'll love getting to know him as the grow up. :) Prayers to you and your family.

Just know that your father will be missed terribly, especially anyone wandering about in the middle of the night. He was good company to those who don't sleep and you never had to worry where you stood with him.

A straight shooter and a gifted writer whose thoughts were above my pay grade some days. But, he was also down to earth and his tea and toast or nap time were just a small part of who he was.

Wales was my friend. I don't remember how we got talking but I know it was through one of his posts. Even her the little payouts he always got, he just kept on writing. I realised soon that Wales did it for the fun anyways. I had to include him in my Ginabot notifications and I curated his posts with an account whenever I got the chance. I have been away for a long time but last month, I signed in to read one of his posts "I am the silverness". It just kept ringing in my head and I had to read it again. It's not something I do everytime.

I didn't get the chance to get to know him that well, but in the little time I got to interact with him though comments on our posts, I realized that here was a complex and interesting person; Wales.

I'd first seen him chatting in the chat channel and I was amused at the conversation going on there. I didn't dare interrupt - it was just flowing and I enjoyed watching and chuckling to myself.

Couldn't believe the news when I saw it this morning, and now that I'm here, I offer my sincere condolences and sympathy to those who knew him well and those who love him. He and the fruits of his labor will be sorely missed.
