With much sadness I announce the loss of my oldest brother. "LanceyHoward". A heart attack was the cause. Words can hardly express the heartache this has caused our/his family. FreeRepublic was part of the "air" he breathed. His last contribution was a Comment the very day he died on Nagging Women, something his dear wife never was. Please pray for her, his three children, and two grandchildren. Thank you all the pleasure FreeRepublic brought him.
I always enjoyed Lancey’s posts and am very sorry to hear of his passing. I will pray for his family in this time of loss.
I am so sorry — I will miss him
So sorry to hear this. God bless you all.
up up up lifted prayers for your brother Lancy and his family
Prayers up.
Prayers going up!
Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car cest à Toi quappartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire,
pour les siècles des siècles. Amen
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

Prayers extended over the sudden loss of fellow Freeper LanceyHoward.
May he rest in God’s loving arms and may you, and his wife, family and dear friends
be comforted in these coming days.
I’m so sorry to learn of this loss to your family as well as our FR family. May Lancey be received with joy in the heavenly mansions.
Lancey was one of the best, proud of the Marines... and of their motto...he lived it.
He was one of the original Haditha warriors, fighting for those poor Marines shamelessly persecuted for political reasons and eventually proven to be innocent of everything except faithfully upholding their honor in fighting for our nation.
He was a go-to guy on military matters. He was a human. He was intelligent.
Rest in Peace, Marine.
Jesus is “Semper Fi”
May knowing how much Lancey was loved and respected, here on FR, bring you a bit of peace and comfort.
Please address all prayers to
Lancey Howard;

This is a great sadness to me. We shared some great private insights.
My heartfelt condolences to the family.
Rest In Peace Lancey.
Sad news, Prayers offered for all.
RIP

I was reading his comments yesterday. Rest in peace bro Freeper. Prayers for you, and your family.
Lancey was one of the best. We met over a disagreement regarding the word “soldier” and how broadly it could be applied. We eventually agreed to disagree and drop it. Like you, I would take military questions to him automatically.
Justice, ethics, the state of the nation...he was on top of it and a very capable thinker and writer. He was a great read on Free Republic. He’ll be missed.
My condolences on your loss. His contributions on this forum were valuable and will be missed.
