United in grief: Thor von Reichmuth (2007 – 2015)

On April 5, at 2:16am, 7-year-old Thor von Reichmuth died after a two year battle with cancer. He was at his home in the Minneapolis area, with his mother and father and surrounded by his stuffed animals. Most obituaries in The Wild Hunt are of famous authors, well known teachers, or founders of a Pagan Tradition. They are of adults whose life’s work, spanning multiple decades, impacted hundreds or thousands of people in our collective religious communities. Thor didn’t have decades, but his death and the way he lived his life have deeply affected the Heathen community worldwide.
