Cross post. I meant to post this in CoJ

Robert Jordan passed away on Sept 16th due to his blood disease. The author of the Wheel of Time series. It is a very sad day for his readers as he hasn't completed the saga that has been going on since 1990. His wonderful writing will be missed.

RIP

NO! I knew he was sick and I knew it wasn't good but I didn't know it was this bad!!!!! Dang! I've read WoT for a while now. How disappointing and terrible for his family.

Sometimes even when you’ve fought your best…. Posted by Wilson on September 16th, 2007 in the Robert Jordan's Blog category
It is with great sadness that I tell you that the Dragon is gone. RJ left us today at 2:45 PM. He fought a valiant fight against this most horrid disease. In the end, he left peacefully and in no pain. In the years he had fought this, he taught me much about living and about facing death. He never waivered in his faith, nor questioned our God’s timing. I could not possibly be more proud of anyone. I am eternally grateful for the time that I had with him on this earth and look forward to our reunion, though as I told him this afternoon, not yet. I love you bubba. Our beloved Harriet was at his side through the entire fight and to the end. The last words from his mouth were to tell her that he loved her. Thank each and everyone of you for your prayers and support through this ordeal. He knew you were there. Harriet reminded him today that she was very proud of the many lives he had touched through his work. We’ve all felt the love that you’ve been sending my brother/cousin. Please keep it coming as our Harriet could use the support. Jason will be posting funeral arrangements. My sincerest thanks. Peace and Light be with each of you, Wilson Brother/Cousin 4th of 3
