I'm sorry to have to report that one of our own Freepers, TrappedInLiberalHell, has passed away. His profile is HERE
I met Chris this past summer and found him to be a brilliant young man, who unfortunately carried around a lot of painful psychological troubles. He wrote few posts here, but was an active and clever noter, and a very sweet young man.

I feel the same way, I want to respond to him. I didn't know him very well, but I always enjoyed his posts. I just can't believe he's not with us anymore.
To Chris' wife, I'd like to say: I am so sorry for your loss. I know a stranger on the internet can't do much for you, but I wish to send you a {{{hug}}} and let you know you are in my prayers. God bless.

I remember him quite clearly as well. I'm pretty sure he and I discussed some issues back and forth. I agree, he was an intelligent guy and with plenty of class. This is indeed a terrible shame. My sincere condolensces to the family.

This is so sad, and so shocking. It seems like only yesterday that we were posting on one of the baseball threads. :(
May he rest in peace, and may God comfort his family.

"This was posted by Chris back in February, and as you can see is very sad. I am at a lost for words, and I really don't know what happened. Some have guessed , and I think as a group, no not as a group, because many of us here are closer then that. We may not see each others faces, but when I see certain names on a thread I get relaxed and enjoy their company. As a family we must remember that away from this some people are truly hurting. Maybe next time someone posts something like this, maybe we can extend a helping hand, or at least a prayer their way. I pray that we can learn from Chris, and grow as a family to help those in our family who needs help."
Fantastic post Sonsofliberty2000. bttt

Here ya go Ma'am:
This was taken about August/September somewhere in California while Chris and his wife were walking the trail from San Diego. He loved looking like Alfred E. Newman!

Thanks for posting that... :(
It's important, because all freepers have a face, a life, a history, behind the screen name.
Too often we engage in bickering because we only see the name and cannot picture the human being behind the monitor.
It's just like when people engage in engage in road rage--they see a face, but no name and no history.
a rest-in-peace, Chris bump.
To: EggsAckley
Envy him EggsAckley. He is in a better place.
Isaiah 57
1 The righteous perish, and no one ponders it in his heart; devout men are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil.
2 Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death.

"I rarely feel compelled to post,although I spend a a great deal of time on FR. I always found TILH's posts sharp and thoughtful. I had no idea he was around my age until today.(for some reason I assume everyone but me here is an AARP member) Way too young to go, but I appreciate his contributions here,and he'll be missed."
I thought for a very long time about whether or not to respond to your post.
And after much thought, I have concluded that given Chris' sense of humor, he wouldn't mind if I responded to this comment:
"for some reason I assume everyone but me here is an AARP member"
You do realize that you would ordinarily never get away wth such a comment, right? ;)
Okay, back to topic. As I said...I made that small joke in a mini-tribute to TILH, for he did have an amazing sense of humor, and I don't think he would mind.
To: BraveMan
Sorry, but I can't envy him. I still have lots of things to do before I leave.
I can't believe your negativity.
To: MeeknMing
Thanks for the ping. I had several conversations with him on-line. Prayers being offered for his family and loved ones.
