Our friend and colleague Albus (Upsetting content)

Thank you!

I feel very sad that, because of internet fraudstars, Albus's photograph could not be put on this forum, as they might make an avatar and account and use it to steal.

Someone's face tells us a lot about their character, and Albus was kind, it would show up individually, in his photograph.

And of course I respect is family's wishes not to show his photograph thus.

It is a sad world we live in sometimes.

I have only just seen this very sad post. RIP Albus 🫂 I will keep his family, firends and everyone from the this community who spoke to him often and knew him better than I did in my prayers 💛🙏🏾

A sad world, sometimes, my glass is half full - pretty much 24/7;

there's no point in being any other way.

The good side is SCOPE is helping us to protect Albus, his family, and us all from fraud.

I think and feel now, I am coming to terms with the loss of Albus, but then I did not know him well;

or did I in a way?

If I, and others who did not know him well, knew his compassion and nurturing encouragement, his going the extra mile, then we knew the most important thing about him.

There is nothing worse than a life wasted, when so much compassion is possible, and definitely Albus had great compassion and sensitivity. He thus did not waste his life, he brought out the best in everyone, he soothed our distresses, and made us fit for recovery time and again. Such skillful means is not a small thing - it is a great and good thing.
