In Dear Memory – George Peter Algar

 

George Peter Algar

George Peter Algar

Today, the very sad news reached us that our supporter and presented author
 
 

George Peter Algar

 
 
died last Thursday.
 
 
We very much mourn the loss of such a wonderful person and inspiring contact.
 
 
Though we only briefly knew him and never met in person, we will greatly miss his friendly and openly helpful approach and creative ideas.
 
 

He supported us with an interview, details about his book “The Shepherd Lord“, by bringing us in contact with the Towton Battlefield Society and just with a wonderful and openminded mail correspondence.

Riikka Nikko, his contact and King Richard III artist from Finland, gave us permission to post her creation in memory of Mr. Algar. The work progressed with input by Mr. Algar.
 
The merciful and avenging angel King Richard, by Riikka Nikko (More details about her and her King Richard creations can be found in her artwork-portfolio and in this KRA-article):

What a hopeful image of the world that awaits us, entirely under the protection of King Richard III.
