[PnP] Richard Snider

[Floyd Resler]

Sad news, indeed.  I'm sorry you lost your close friend and that we lost the creator of one of our favorite games.  I've always been amazed by the wealth of detail that Richard put into the game.  A friend of mine, who is an avid D&D player, once commented that Perilous Lands was the best fantasy world he had seen.  Richard will be missed.

Take care,
Floyd

I can tell you he was amazed so many people were still playing his game after such a long time, it gave him a lot of validation of his original dream that AH marketed poorly, would not support and let die a shameful early death.  Finding out so many people loved the game and how it effected a lot of peoples lives, reversed a lot of years of bitterness and his own self-worth.  I am most certain he is flattered to know he will be missed and that peoples love of the game, will keep his legacy alive and strong.

I lost a wonderful friend who was a major part of my life from when we both lived together in Baltimore years ago, to when we both relocated to other parts of the country and kept in constant touch.  Certainly the smartest person I have ever known, and one of the most kind.  I still can not believe he is gone.
