I came down the ladder this morning to meet news that William Grigg, proprietor of the Pro Libertate blog, has died.
Will Grigg died today. Of a heart attack. He was 54 years old.
Will was my hero. I don’t know what else to say.
I confess I never took the time to learn much about him. I visited his blog often; we share(d) a common interest in keeping score in our would-be sheepdogs’ beloved sport of justice-rape. I found him an excellent and passionate writer, if something of a one-trick pony on the subject.
Dullhawk noted his passing but didn’t say how he died. A commenter linked to this, which gave me more information about Grigg’s history; I didn’t know he went that far back but it shouldn’t surprise me. That the man’s head and heart were screwed on straight there was never any doubt. He was a true activist, and our world is somewhat diminished.
54 years is way to young to pass on, dang. My he rest in peace.

Too young to pass on with a wife and 6 kids, especially. There’s a GoFundMe page for people to donate to support them. It’s a great way to honor his memory. He was a master wordsmith and an all-around gentleman.
