I am really sorry to hear about your loss, NathWraith.
As someone who has been part of the OcUK forums / larger community for quite a while, though quieter as of late, I still recall some of the postings by Spie and I am deeply saddened by the passing of the OcUK founder; but Spie has achieved so much and this great legacy is all his own work. For that, we can all be very grateful. Spie will also be eternally grateful for your heartfelt tribute, NathWraith.
