FSF Morpheus

Martin St.Onge and Family
I have the very sad duty to inform Fleet Command, the hosting body and the
general membership of the passing of one of the greatest hosts to have
ever graced this group. FSF Morpheus, a.k.a. Martin St-Onge, passed away
this past weekend on Sunday from brain cancer. He has been on leave for
several weeks and has kept us informed of his progress. However, he
returned to the hospital for tests and a possible operation a little over
a week ago. His condition deteriorated. He kept in touch with us through
his wife and she had the sad duty to pass along his last messages today to
the people very dear to him: us.
Martin was much more than just another player, he was a close friend, confidant and mentor to a great number of people. From his humble beginnings here in the FSF on September 3, 2002 on the USS Magistrate as character Martin St-Onge to his being hired as a host on April 2, 2003 to rising through Fleet Command as first the Epsilon Fleet XO, to eventually ascending to Omega Fleet CO where he is best known for his efforts to turnaround Omega Fleet to its greatest status in the history of its existence. Helping to expand the role of hosts and members in the FSF, he helped to form the Host Hiring Board in late 2003, held the positions of Awards Director, Intimation Director and Epsilon Fleet Host Coordinator during his time in the group.
Recently returning to active status after a hiatus, Martin worked hard to prove himself to the new command team of both Alpha and Omega Fleets and immediately began hosting the USS Magistrate, his first game in the group. During his three and a half years, Martin hosted the USS Crusader, Starbase Adelphi, USS Endevour, USS Magistrate, Starbase Omega, Stargate: SG-3, and USS Phoenix. He also simmed on Starbase Adelphi, Circus of the Damned, Shattered Hopes, USS Deliverance, Order of the Wands, USS Magistrate, USS Vastitude, USS John C. Stennis, USS Dauntless, USS Heritage, and USS Phoenix. He was a force to reckon with and all of his superiors and cohosts alike loved and respected him for his honestly, gentleness and sincerity.
Martin will be missed not just by his direct family, but the family he called his second home.. the FSF. We loved him. We shall honor him. We shall never forget him.
