| Earl D. Jones Born 1944 Died Aug 21 2004 7:38am Ohio time from cancer. He started the USS Conqueror on Dec 21, 2002 and was our captain. He was our mentor, friend and leader. Laid to rest at Dayton Veteran's Cemetery in Dayton, OH Friday August 27th 2004 but he will always be in our hearts. What can I say about a man that changed my whole life just by meeting him? I am at a loss right now to say. I think my heart hurt's too much to think right now. But the world is some how a darker place without him to shine in it and it's alot colder. He did so many things with his life and touched so many lives, changing them forever and I count myself privileged and blest to have known him for the years I did but lost him too soon. He was a Veteran - A Tunnel Rat they called the group. They went in the holes to hunt down the enemy. He was given 6 purple hearts and a Victorian Iron Cross of Valor, in case you were wondering. He served in Vietnam, Army, and Special Forces Division and was a hero. Member of Amtgard, S.C.A., many Klingon groups and UASTS Kiara Rodale XO of the USS Conqueror |

| Melancholy Joy Melancholy, melancholy...another friend has gone to join his warrior brethren on high… Beat the drum slowly - and say the expected words of solace… He is free now of earthly limitations, soaring unencumbered above the mundane cares of the living - free of spirit and light of heart - And yet, we mourn… Though the end may have been long expected and anticipated, still it wrenches at the inner recesses of the heart, the warm places where real love dwells. We mourn as much for ourselves as for the departed friend or relative. How to fill this suddenly aching void? Memories are poor substitutes for the once living being. What can now enliven where your vibrancy once uniquely sang and shone and pulsed? We wish you well and rejoice in your renewed vitality and freedom: But still...how we wish you had not gone just yet. © 8/21/2004 Thurman P. Woodfork ...for Earl D. Jones U.S. Army~Viet Nam Veteran |
| Captain of the IKV_Harbinger Col. Kolar Sutai-Rasmehlier with his crew from that ship |
| Earl is the captain of our ship. He is a great man. Most of our crew would follow him into a real battle even if we knew it was a fight to the death. Lucky for the world we are not real Klingons. *****Comment made by Ed Watkins***** |

| My name is Earl D. Jones, also known as Ulric Grimmheld, Kolar Rasmehlier, K'lar Rasmehlier & Hidi Toshinaga. I have always had a passion for Viking culture, since my ancestry is Danish Viking. I also have a passion for Star Trek, Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern series, and Robert Asprin's Horse Clans series. One of my most favorite writers is Robert E. Howard, creator of the "Conan" series, and my characters often resemble Howard's hero. I fell in love with the head-long plunging style and the larger-than-life hero types. My own writing tended to be seldom and sketchy until meeting the people who run this site a few years ago. Since then, I have enjoyed an abundance of inspiration, hunting and pecking my way through with some of the best writers in the field. I have managed to publish only a few short Sci-Fi stories, but things are looking up. I also have some ability with ghost stories and Science Fiction. I am one of the original "trekkies" from the 60's. I often appear at conventions, in full Klingon costume and makeup, as the commander of my own international Star Trek Fan Club based on Klingon culture. I am known to fellow Klin as Thought-General Kolar epetai-Rasmehlier, a nasty old battle-hardened veteran Klingon Marine who probably should have died honorably many years ago. I have signed almost as many autographs as Worf (Michael Dorn), and have been captured on film with Gowron (Robert O'Rielly), Barbara Marsh and Gwyneth Walsh (the Duras sisters Lursa and Be'tor), and even being kissed by Lt. Saavik (Robin Curtis). As to my personal facts, I am a balding 57-year-old father of three and grandfather of 6, happily married for 33 years. I currently live in Felicity, in a rural area of southern Ohio. I was born in the small town of Mt. Sterling, KY, in 1944, and moved to Cincinnati, Ohio after 12 years. I graduated high school in 1963, just in time to enlist in the US Army and wind up in Viet Nam during 1965 and 1966. I came home in June 1966, and met my wife at a Civil Air Patrol meeting, in 1967. We were married on June 1, 1968. Since then, I have been the president of the Ohio UFO Investigator's League, and Overlord of my own Viking Mercenary, SCA household, a blacksmith, weaponsmith, and continuing student of medieval history and culture. I have been a buckskinner, professional hunter and fisherman, and a typical, under-paid factory employee as well as an ABE/GED school teacher, with math and sciences being my field of expertise. My favorite pasttime is to be pecking at the keyboard of my home-brewed computer, and playing with certain robotics plans and functions programs. |
