[Guenevere]

FReeper milagro posted on America the Right Way.. today, that her husband, 1John, died yesterday of a massive heart attack.

John was a fine man, who loved the Lord, his wife, and his country.
He had served in the military, and has a son in the military now.

Please keep milagro & the family in prayer.

This is such a shock to her, and completely unexpected.

Please let her know you are praying for her.

She told me John would be honored knowing he was mentioned on the Forum......as they both love Free Republic.

Thanks, and God bless.

My Condolences to you and your Family.

May God rest him well.

Sincerely,

[cantfindagoodscreenname]

My deepest sympathies, milagro! I didn't know him, but did see his screenname and posts from time to time and knew that he was my brother in Christ. May the God of all Comfort give you comfort as you grieve.

I never know what to say in these situations, but I didn't want to just leave this thread without telling you that I'm shedding tears for your loss, and also the loss suffered by FR, and our country. I'm not a believer, but be sure that your loss weighs heavy on my heart, and I sincerely hope you stay with us so a little piece of your husbands humor and insight will remain a part of our FR family.

Take care.

Good-bye 1John

From my people to you and yours:

The Mourner's Kaddish

English: May the great Name of God be exalted and sanctified, throughout the world, which he has created according to his will. May His Kingship be established in your lifetime and in your days, and in the lifetime of the entire household of Israel, swiftly and in the near future; and say, Amen.

May His great name be blessed, forever and ever.

Blessed, praised, glorified, exalted, extolled, honored elevated and lauded be the Name of the Holy One, Blessed is He - above and beyond any blessings and hymns, Praises and consolations which are uttered in the world; and say Amen.

The departed whom we now remember has entered into the peace of life eternal. He still lives on earth in the acts of goodness he performed, and in the hearts of those who cherish his memory. May his life and spirit remain with us as a loving benediction.

May there be abundant peace from Heaven, and life, upon us and upon all Israel; and say, Amen.

He who makes peace in His high holy places, may He bring peace upon us, and upon all Israel; and say Amen.

Oh, Guenevere, I can't believe this. I've been offline so much in the past few months and find this shocker this morning....1John was not only a friend, but a neighbor, who I never got to meet! Another wonderful opportunity missed!

milagro, I will email you. Our prayers and thoughts stand beside you. God bless our 1John.

[The Thin Man]

Heartfelt condolences. My prayers along with many others are with you.

Just popping in to bring this sad news. John was invaluable help in the land rights issue and a So. Oregonian and my friend, who I will miss so much. I hope he and Heavy d, BKO and the Cheif have got the freeper chapter in heaven charged up!!! I keep hearing someone whispering, "Let's roll!"
