Roy,
I never had the pleasure to interact with this fine gentleman.
I have read many tributes in memory of Mastery as a Marine, writer, poet, published author, and friend.
Your beautifully penned poem is another fine tribute to one of our very own. My prayers are with his family during this difficult time.
Thanks for sharing...Portia

Comment from Father Flaps
Hi Roy,
Thanks for writing this tribute to Bob Hartson. I enjoyed it very much, and I'm sure we'll see him in Heaven. Just think how much we'll be able to write about in that place. I was very saddened to hear of his passing. Who will finish his last novel? Can't leave Cleve and Mo high and dry. Perhaps they can just drop everything and get married... sail down to an island in the Caribbean.
My favorite lines,
"Such Mastery your pen displayed"
"We'll not forget this kindly man"
Isn't it something how we get to know and appreciate writers in Fanstory, never having met them? And then, one day, they pass away... adewpearl, Dean Kuch, Mastery... to mention just a few. We miss them like they were a relative.
Blessings,
Kimbob

This was a beautiful piece Roy. I'm glad that you were able to write such kind and poetic word's in Bob's memory. The last part about meeting him again in paradise really touched me . Wonderful imagery. Great work.

Comment from Patty Palmer
A beautiful tribute to one of fan story's great authors. I didn't get to know the dear man. but I've heard a lot of great poems from this fellow. I've heard some mention the book Falling Up the Stairs. Do you know where I might find it to read? It sounds like it would be very interesting. Another good one, Roy. Blessings!

I don't believe I've ever read any of his work, or if I did so I wasn't aware of it. This poem you have written is a fine tribute to a writer that you admire, I'm sure he would be very proud. Thank you for sharing. :)
