Tolkien’s Eldest Son Dies

January 30th, 2003 by xoanon

The eldest son of The Lord of the Rings author JRR Tolkien has died at the age of 85. Father John Tolkien, heir to the multi-million family estate, died after a 50-year career with the Catholic church in the Midlands.

Our sympathies go out to the Tolkien family.
