I didn't know you at all, only through Facebook, but I liked you very much indeed. So sleep sweetly until the day when you and your loved ones reunite to make your life a complete whole. God bless you, Draj.

I first became aware of AJ on line and then met her in person when we were interviewed by BBC North in front of York Minster. They were interested in why two women one from US and the from Australia would come all that way for the re-burial of an English King. We certainly told them. We had lengthy chats all the following week. One I fondly remember sitting on the step in front of the alter in the little church in Middleham. She was a driving force in the creation of our non-affiliated group. Her knowledge regarding our King and medieval horse bloodlines was awesome. Always up for a chat on FB. She will be sorely missed by so many of us. Rest in Peace lovely lady.

The news of AJ's passing was not what I wanted to hear, although sadly I knew it was on the way.
AJ accepted our invitation to stay with us three times over the past eight years, on occasions when she was over here in the UK. We were able to visit quite a few sites connected to King Richard III, and I know she loved her two visits to Minster Lovell with us.
She was a wonderful character, with a very dry sense of humour, and a firm supporter of Good King Richard. I shall miss her very much. The one consolation is that she is now released from pain and suffering. May she rest in peace (and hopefully now met her King) and may her memory be a blessing to her family, and all those others who knew and loved her.

I met AJ through the Ricardian pages on Facebook, which led to us meeting at York and Middleham where we shared accommodation and had great times..... including walking round the Castle at midnight taking photos! Kept in touch via email and I was always blown away by her knowledge and intense research into Richard´s times. Deeply missed AJ, but glad there is no more pain. I hope all of your questions have been answered and you are now at peace. Sleep well my friend xxx
