Guardian Down. A tribute and a salute
This is not my video, but one i feel needs to be shared across the community. This video is a tribute to a True Guardian in our time. I did not personally know him or play with him but reading about what he did in his time in life and the suffering he went through is an inspirational story.
A victim of Cystic Fibrosis, he dedicated his life, got his PhD to study,understand and try to find relief for the disorder, not only for himself but for countless others and those in the future so they wouldn't have to suffer through what he had to.
Joshua Stokell was a true Guardian. May his light forever burn in all our lives.
Rest in Peace, Guardian. You fought courageously but you're fight is over. Now lets us all fight in your stead.
And to his clan mates in DoD, I salute each and every one of you in Alpha Legion and throughout the entirety of the alliance. You're dedication to each other as a community is without equal. My hat is off to you Guardians.
Edit: It's great to see so many of you stepping up and being the community we all know we are capable of being. Thank you all for rising above the toxic miasma that has settled in throughout these forums.

1 ReplyMay I request of those who read this and have unlocked the Shader: [b]Sunsetting[/b] Please, to show your support wear this shader on the weekly reset day (Or anytime between then and afterwards. It would be really cool to see alot of people wearing it at once. This shader is -likely- the shader he was wearing in that screenshot. Close enough. But if there is a more preferred shader I am all ears! (I know it's an already popular shader but still)

2 RepliesEach time a Guardian amongst us falls, we lose a brother in arms. We lose a man who we followed into the darkness. As he would into the light. Though we lost our friend. He isn't gone. For a Guardian's setvice is not only remembered by their family; but by those that he touched in the hearts of those that he was able to smile and laugh along with side by side with us all. I believe I can speak for most here in wishing him peace in his walk among the light once more.

1 ReplyA 21 shot salute from No Land Beyond from me. Hopefully I will meet him in another life. Never before had a more true guardian stood amongst us.

2 RepliesI hope that in the end, after all, being Guardians, shall have a one last meet. Guardian is a title, that's not just your character name across a silly game. No, it's much more. Guardians develop strong friendships, even romances. As op knows, I lost someone really close to me to cancer not so long ago. And other Guardians also mourned for my loss. Among the many a-holes in the community there are a few bright stars, and that's what this is all about. Best wishes to the family, I hope the Guardian now protects them more than he could in real life. Salute.

1 ReplyVery moving tribute. I'm in a clan that took the name of one our fallen friends as well and it is just one of many tributes we can make as guardians. Offline, but on our minds.
