WHEREAS John Carl Eiffler of Milwaukee, Wisconsin - a part of the Miwaukee 'East Side' 'Old-Growth' group of friends including R. Ben Madison, Xherált L. Conâ, JJ, Josh Forziun, Sandee P., Dan Lauriér, Roibeard dal Már, and others and known to Talossans worldwide as 'Art Verbotten' since ca. late 2004, was in the Talossan community from at least 1980 onward and was active from the mid-1980s through ca. 2010. In Talossan, he was 'Ián Carlüs Valadéir', but never used that translation.
WHERAS as the leader of the one-man Kingdom of Thord, he was a belligerent in the Conâ Wars and one of the founders of the now-defunct League of Secessionist States (LOSS) which for a time was a force in the micronational community.
WHEREAS he was an active citizen of the Kingdom of Talossa and later of the 2004-2012 Republic of Talossa and whose April 2004 renunciation of the Kingdom helped (along with Bill Cooper's renunciation the same night) throw the full light of clarity and truth on Ben Madison's vendetta against Kane Gruber,
WHEREAS his presence in Talossa was one of consistency, approachability, and a continual fount of wisdom,
WHEREAS he was rightly called the 'Conscience of Talossa' for at least thirty years by Ben Madison and others,
WHEREAS he was born 14 July 1964 and died on 10 January 2021, though the Kingdom did not hear of it until a fortnight afterward,
WHEREAS with only a few pointed and gracious words, he could distill any argument to its essence, putting everyone in their place and calling all on their b-s,
WHEREAS his obituary may be had at https://www.krausefuneralhome.com/obituary/john-c-eiffler/
WHEREAS he was just plain cool and his loss is a profound one to the Talossan Kingdom community, the micronational community at-large, the Talossan expatriate community, and most of all to his family and friends outside of Talossa,
THEREFORE, the Ziu and the whole of the Kingdom of Talossa extends its profound sympathies to Eiffler's family and friends as well as to R. Ben Madison, Xherált Conâ, Ián U. Metáiriâ (aka JJ), Danihel Lauriér, and all the greater Talossan nation.
May John Carl Eiffler aka 'Art Verbotten' be remembered for his wisdom, wit, and for being a giant who walked among us. The Kingdom of Thord has left the building.
Rest in peace, brother.
