Mrs. smoothsailing contacted me today to relate that longtime FReeper smoothsailing passed away yesterday, 9-13-16 of pancreatic cancer.
Smoothsailing will be missed here at FR, he was a staunch conservative, a true patriot and a gentleman.
He was active in the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Pennsylvania. On his homepage he said "I'M A DAMN PROUD VIETNAM VETERAN" and he surely was.
Rest In Peace, my FRiend. One day we'll meet on the other side.

I have been curious about the ages of the people on FR. I get the impression that, on average, we are in our late fifties or early sixties. That bodes badly for the future. I have met some decent young conservatives but not as many as gimmedat’s. That may be because I am in a college and capital city.
BTW, I am 62.

I lost my father 3 years ago to that miserable cancer. He lasted 4 months from diagnosis to the end.
Prayers for Rusty’s family, at least his suffering is over.

There will be a joyous gathering one of these days in Heaven though. Such “remember when” times we will share.
