David Lane Eulogy, by Dr. Casper Odinson Cröwell

Dateline June 1, 2007 CE

Only this afternoon my wife Linda had informed me that our kinsman Ron McVan had contacted her to inform her that David Lane had passed away earlier this week on Memorial Day.
How David passed is not nearly as important as how he lived or the severe consequences he had incurred in concert with his noble convictions and principles. More so, with Dave’s passing both the Aryan folk and Odinist/Wotanist faith have lost a champion. The battalions of Zionists and their misinformed sympathizers are most assuredly overjoyed at our faith and folk community’s great loss. Albeit, one hundred perhaps two hundred years from now, history will be rewritten to reflect the reality of the role genuine Patriotism played in the late 20th century Vinland (USA) where European folk, heritage and cultures were to come under siege and remain so today.
And where such history shall be chronicled, the name of David Lane will appear upon the Patriot’s Roll of Honor.
David Lane was born in Woden, Iowa, Vinland on Wednesday – (Odins day), November 2, 1938 CE and he was a life long folk patriot; Whom on many occasions disregarded his own comfort and personal safety in service to that which he most loved and remained stalwartly committed to; “His Folk”. Dave now leaves us to join Allfather Odin and the myriad of heroes whom await him in Valhalla.
The piper’s song is mournful, as it wends its way across our Odal lands, and I fear that many “Armchair Patriots” will seek to capitalize off his honorable name and memory. The deluge of poetry, essays and songs will now begin, and were they are proffered by the legitimate Folk Patriots, such fame of sound praise is always appropriate. But where the Aryan man or woman lacks even the desire to abhor the many maladies which plague our Race, all the while singing the praise of Dave, an even a greater disservice our foes could not afford his valiant memory.
For Dave, just as all true Folk Patriots, despised the Aryan man or woman in name only; those who refuse to acknowledge the damage that drugs, vice, prison politics and fratricidal behaviors destroys our people with. It was David Lane that gave us the 14 words, “We must secure the existence of our people and the future for white children”.
As surely as we honor the memory of this kinsmen, who now joins the ranks of our honored ancestors, others will come to fill our ranks where the fallen once stood. The only question that remains is this, “Will those who come along honor or deface the memory of David Lane with their actions?”

Cattle die; Kinsman die
and so each one must die;
One thing I know shall never die,
the deeds of a good man.
– Hávamál - 77

David Lane was 68. We shall miss him sorely. But we shall never forget him, or his selfless and tireless efforts. Fara meth Odin, Dave!
