Hi all,

I’m not sure if this is allowed but I could really use your help.

My father died suddenly three days ago and I’m in charge of writing his obituary.

We were both avid readers and I want to include a literary quote. Something poetic and beautiful, about life or love or loss. He loved sci fi and fantasy, especially Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit (both of which he read to me when I was a child). He also enjoyed the Harry Potter series.

Some other authors he liked to read:

  • Jim Butcher
  • Stephen King (we were both fans, especially of The Dark Tower series)
  • Simon R Green
  • Iain Banks
  • Richard Morgan
  • Robert Jordan
  • David Eddings

I’d be eternally grateful for any assistance. My brain feels like mush so I’m having a really hard time thinking of anything.

Thank you.
