I am shocked. I saw some of your twits yesterday, @jaynie and I did not quite undertsand. I was busy doing other things and did not bother to find out. This is a really sad news. I knew @wales only through comments interchange, but I was fond of him. I liked his no-bullshit attitude.
I remember one argument that ensued in the discord and he even quit the group for some time. He was a believer in people's need to get along with each other, otherwise, what was the point.
I am deeply moved by your post and I know I will have a long day ahead of me processing @wale's death.
My deepest sympathies to all those who were close to him.
May he rest in peace.
