Author's Notes
I created Jorim Brusk Stonemantle II in honor and memory of my late brother Jimmy. My brother loved music and this summer I am dedicating my completion of Summer Camp 2024 to my father. I find it fitting in a conversation I had with my father after Jimmy's burial I asked my dad if i could create a D&D npc for my fantasy world in Jimmy's honor. So my dad and I worked on it slightly i just asked my dad some questions. Now is the day I can actually put my brother into words for my fantasy world. I hope you all enjoy. Jimmy passed away on Tuesday, June 7, 2022, with his sister, Candy, by his side. Jimmy lived in his own apartment with help from his CHI Friendship family and recently, Hospice of the Red River Valley. Jimmy’s personality was larger than life itself. If there was chaos happening around him, he was more than likely the culprit of the event. He loved music; Elvis and Johnny Cash were his favorites. He loved his guitar, drums, noisemakers, and counting to 10 as loud as possible on his drum. His smile and infectious laugh could turn around a person’s day in a heartbeat. A person could not stay unhappy when they were spending time with Jimmy. Jimmy did not communicate in a traditional manner. He had no problem letting someone know if he liked or didn’t like what was happening around him. Bringing joy to others was his gift. He brought that joy to others during the Christmas Holiday, ringing bells for the Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Campaign. He would ring the bell and sing along, bringing the attention to the Red Kettle. Jimmy taught others that a shoe could bring an immense amount of joy and pleasure; a person just needed an imagination. Jimmy loved to travel. His favorite trip was to Graceland, the birthplace of Elvis Presley. He took many trips to Minneapolis/St Paul to enjoy shows at Chanhassen Dinner Theater, attend Minnesota Twins games, visit parks, zoos, and whatever else the cities would offer. Jimmy’s family was near and dear to his heart. In March 2013, Jimmy and his sister, Candy, moved into an apartment together. At that moment, the family was “put back together,” as stated by his dad. Jimmy invited and welcomed his family into their home for holiday meals. He welcomed any drop-in visits from family members. He attended church with his family every chance he got. He loved to be around people. Hosting friends and family gatherings were a highlight for him. His opinion was, “the more, the merrier” the greater the chaos!!
