I received word from 2ndDivisionVet wife that he passed away.
I am not using his real name here out of respect but, will ping his handle and his wife can if she would like.
I didn't ask what he died from but, knowing him for better than 10 years, I knew of medical conditions and a few terrible Operations he had.
He was a wonderful human being who cared deeply for his fellow Americans and the ideals that make this country so great that people the world over want to come here and be free, live in liberty and be whoever they want
If you have ever spoke with 2ndDivisionVet, you know he was quick witted and wry.
What had always amazed me about him was not just his humor but, his ability to somehow take life in stride despite all he endured and be cheerfull.
He was amazingly resourceful in scouring the web for article we might find interesting.
Yes, 2ndDivisionVet really cared about all of us and our presence in his life gave him purpose
I really wish God had let him stay but, my thoughts are more selfish than the absolute knowledge that he is in a better place.
I hope to see him again one day.
Rest in peace and smile down on us 2ndDivisionVet
I agree with your sentiments.I only knew him via this forum and he will be missed by me.
Sad :-(
Condolences and prayers for the family...Prolific poster and Patriot...His name will be remembered...
God rest his soul and give comfort to those who knew and loved him.

Oh man I am devastated to hear that. Free Republic and this nation are a darker place as a result. May he rest in peace. You will be missed.
2ndDivisionVet has passed away.
He was a Military Aide in the White House when Ronald Reagan was President. 2ndDivisionVet once mentioned President Reagan and he had many late night discussions about various subjects over the years.
Rest in Peace dear Friend. You will be missed.
