My thoughts go out to his family.

An unwelcome shock and very saddening. Rook, it was a privilege to have crossed paths with you here where you touched so many lives in a positive and uplifting way. Rest in peace my friend, you'll be truly missed.

This news comes as quite a shock. I was currently working on some projects with him.

I have enjoyed my association with him over the years as we worked on various things.

He will truly be missed. I wish his family well.

In his honor as the last true hereditary King of Ireland, here is a simple version of his family crest that he used for his avatar for a while here in the forum.
