Hello fellow Freepers,
This is a message from the family of GitmoSailor, or Gus, as we knew him.
Gus passed away on Tuesday. He left us in poor health and is no longer suffering. Thanks to all of you who made his last days bearable. He thoroughly enjoyed his time on-line, especially to express his political views and points. Thank you again for giving him a forum to view and respond to world politics and current affairs. Thank you for providing him with a much needed past time. To any wishing to express condolences we will check this board for the next few months until we are ready to close his account. Thank you, The family of GitmoSailor, A.K.A. J.R., A.K.A. Gus
When my freeper friend and real life friend passed away,
JR let me put her on the memorial wall. You should do that.
It’s a real tribute to be listed with the good people there.
Fair winds and following seas, sailor.
May he rest in peace.
Prayers up. God bless you all.
Rest in peace GitmoSailor. You will be missed.
Farewell sailor.
Many prayers for comfort and strength in such a sad time.
RIP GitmoSailor.
Prayers for Gus and his family and friends.
Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, 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 for Gus
condolences to family and friends
God bless, GitmoSailor.
You will be missed.
Sunset and evening star
and one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
when I put out to sea.
For though from out our bourne
of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
when I have crossed the bar.

GitmoSailor has crossed the bar. Rest in Peace.
My condolences to his family.
I’m so sorry. GitmoSailor was a great patriot and friend to all on FR. He will be greatly missed.
Fair winds and following seas, dear shipmate.
Hand Salute!
God Bless.
Sail On.
