Last Resort Mourns the Loss of WizofOz

WizofOz, who in the offline world was Will Holroyd, 58 of South Carolina, died
Friday after being ill for months with a brain tumor. He so enjoyed Palace that
he chatted at Last Resort with the assistance of his daughter and son-in-law
until the day before his death.
He was a retired bank systems analyst and served in the U.S. Army during the
Vietnam era.
Last Resort will miss WizofOz, his sense of humor and wit, participation in our
events and early morning coffee, his avatar at the gate. We do find comfort in
his words that he knew we cared about him at Last Resort and it meant a great
deal to him.
WizofOz is well-known to other Palaces he visited, including the Gardens Proppe
Shop.
In honor of WizofOz, Last Resort has a gate link to his private island and
memorial rooms for Palace friends to pay their respects. Wizard's Falls was his
favorite spot and he often spent the night beside the falls with his avatar
sleeping in a hammock. Also included are his Wiz of Oz room and a room of
memories with images of WizofOz at various events.
