Merry Christmas to you Cottonball and all freepers. No news about Granny? Have been checking in here periodically hoping to hear something.
NW Arizona Granny Ruth departed this earth sometime over Christmas weekend. I received a message from her sister. She was a wonderful freeper and friend.

RIP Granny. Suffer no more, your Comforter has come for you.
Oh, Granny ...
CottonBall, Granny has passed away. Could you please ping the list?

RIP dear Ruth.. thank you for being our friend, sharing your immense wealth of information and your zeal for life and living. You are now REALLY living... we will miss you!
Please let the family know she was dearly loved here on FR.
I am missing her today.
I had not gotten any email from her since Dec. 17th but hadn’t written to her to check in.
I have always admired her and will greatly miss her.
I’m so glad you are in touch with her sister.
Sigh.
What would you think about a new thread in her memory? We could call it Thread #4 and dedicate it to her. I'd be happy to get it going. Of course, it will not grow as quickly without the generous posting of Granny, but if everybody contributed as they could, I think Granny would smile down on us.
That would be fantastic! Especially the dedication to her.
I have a ping list for the old threads - let me know and I will alert everyone when it is available.
Thanks so much for volunteering!

I think Granny would love to know that her threads were important enough to continue. You have my vote...

I really miss her, and these threads.
I hope she would be pleased to know that she helped someone get back to the old ways.
My FreeRepublic thread about my farm
Thanks so very much, granny. It's bittersweet, that's for sure.
I have not been notified if a new thread was begun. Everyone may have been caught up with the election and not had time to get it underway. If anyone out there knows, please post the info.
Boy, that takes me back!
The other long thread was over 12K here:

Still alive
That is good to hear, Thanks. Grace and peace thru Jesus the Lord.
But what happened to the rest? Kind of sad but glad is some died and went to be with the Lord Jesus.
I am still alive from those days. They were wonderful and I learned so much. It was all so great to know that so many were concerned for the country as I was. I have several notebooks full of info filed away from those days. Ruth got up early every morning and treated each day as a full time job. Gee, I miss her.

Thanks. We miss so many, but for those who “die in the Lord” real life begins at death (versus a living Hell for the lost).
