2ndDivisionVet has passed away
Vanity | 10/10/2019 | Vendome

Posted on 11/10/2019 9:33:59 AM PST by Vendome

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

Very sorry to hear that. Out of all of the folks I’ve interacted with on here, his were some of the most intelligent and thoughtful comments in the discussions I was part of.

As a relative noob but long-time lurker before decloaking, I can honestly say his articles and commentary helped make FR a staple for me (and probably many of us). His self-deprecating posts about his health intertwined with "I will lead the charge even if I'm crippled" commentary made him a special part of FR.

If I saw an article was posted by him, I was inclined to click on it. Requiescat in pace.
