A great light in the magickal community has gone out.
Tim Maroney, author, occult scholar and seminal contributor to the
alt.magick forums, died last night. Early reports indicate a heart
attack as the cause of death.
Tim was a most excellent human being, one that I had the great pleasure
of arguing heatedly with on many occasions, here and on other forums.
After years, when we finally met face-to-face, we became good friends,
though our fine, highly intelligent debates never ceased to amaze and
enlighten us both.
His many friends and colleagues, in the SF Bay Area and elsewhere, will
miss his wisdom and humor greatly.
Goodbye, my friend.
"Unto them from whose eyes the veil of life hath fallen may there be
granted the accomplishment of their true Wills; whether they will
absorption in the Infinite, or to be united with their chosen and
preferred, or to be in contemplation, or to be at peace, or to achieve
the labour and heroism of incarnation on this planet, or another, or in
any Star, or aught else, unto them may there be granted the
accomplishment of their Wills; yea, the accomplishment of their Wills.
AUMGN. AUMGN. AUMGN."

I've touch'd the highest point of all my greatness;
And from that full meridian of my glory
I hasten now to my setting.
I shall fall, like a bright exhalation in the evening
And no man see me more.
-- William Shakespeare
