Introduction

James Oliver Rigney, Jr., better known to us as Robert Jordan, and sometimes affectionately called, "The Creator" passed away on September 16th, 2007 after a prolonged battle with amyloidosis.

Directly after this event, members of our community immediately started exchanging contact information, to come together and support each other in the face of this sad news.

Our site saw a surge in membership. The site set up a special forum where people could post about RJ and how he and the books had affect their lives. We also hosted a Memorial Chat where people were invited to share memories and a toast in honor of RJ.

What follows are some of the thoughts and memories our members wanted to share in regards to the life and career to this great man.
