The Fulltrúi Honour:
Now deceased. Nominated post-mortum.

Ragnar dedicated his life to furthering Asatru. He always walked the walk, as well as talking the talk.

He traveled all over the U.S. and made contacts, and brought Heathens in contact with other Heathens all over the country.

He always exhibited hospitality and perseverance especially, and the other virtues, and the Code of Nine.

He never hid his faith in public, and always presented an excellent face of Asatru to other Heathens and to the outside world of non-Heathens.

Up to the time he was injured while working, fell into a coma and subsequently passed over the Bridge, he was the most honorable and hospitable Heathen it was ever my honor to know. If ever there were a modern Asatru hero... Ragnar Whitcomb is that person.

He exhibited a true lifetime achievement of bringing Folk together.

The Fulltrúi Honour:
Teresa has since becoming active in the national Heathen community in 2000 has been nothing but giving. She has hosted gatherings in her home, helped with gatherings, and been a gracious hostess.

Were this not enough, last fall with the Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, she sprung into action, quickly organizing the Frige Fund to help those hurt by these disasters. Until then the Frige Fund had helped only parents of newborns and one family that had been burned out. But by Yule of 2005, it had touched the lives of 35 families with some form of aid.

In addition, after her husband Swain's car accident and illness, she took on the leadership of the Miercinga Rice, becoming the first leader to lead a Theodish organization. She has shown herself as capable a leader as any of the males.

The Tyrfast Honour:
Tee has worked tirelessly when heathens and their families have been in need. She started the Frige Fund the first (and to my knowledge) ONLY Heathen charity. She has helped a heathen family who lost their house in a fire, and this last year between Hurricanes Katrina and Rita fed, sheltered, and clothed 32 heathens and their respective families, as well as help outfitted a police department in desperate need of everyday items as well.

Despite how polarizing heathen politics can be at time, she worked across those boundaries, and got heathens contributing, time, money, and items from coast to coast.

I can personally attest for her house being over-run during the peak. Every spare bit of space had boxes stacked near to the ceiling, and you wondered if you'd sneezed if you'd be buried alive.

The woman is already making preparations for this upcoming year as well.

The Ring-Giving Honour:
For extraordinary service to Heathenry founding the Frige Fund, a charitable venture for Heathen in need, and in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
