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

Great Sympathy to His Beloved family members as we share in this sad news......

Well, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson passed away on July 4th.
We’re getting news that 2ndDivisionVet passed away in Veterans Day Weekend. How appropriate.
His celebration of Veterans Day in God’s presence is much better than anything down here.
2ndDivisionVet sent me a link in email some weeks ago that was funny.

Did not realize how many people knew Fred personally...
A person I’ve never seen, but feel like I’ve kind of known for a long time.
That is the internet.
Very sad to read this news.
