Beloved Texan Freeper, Tom Eaker (Eaker on FR), has left us.
Prayers to family and friends in this most difficult time.
Prayers going up for our departed Freeper and for the grieving family & friends left behind.
My wife and I were at the last shoot. I can't remember how many times Tom asked me "you know what I like about you?"
Apparently the correct answer was "Not a damn thing"
lol
Prayer Warriors.....FReeper Eaker has passed.

Prayers up :(
Lord God, rest Thy servant Tom with the saints.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Amen
May your next one be more memorable.
Eaker always treated me with respect, more than I deserved at times. I will miss his input in the forum. May he rest in peace & the Lord grant his friends and family comfort in this difficult time.
"Eternal rest I'm grant unto him, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May the souls of the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace.Amen.
Apparently the correct answer was "Not a damn thing"
He was a funny guy, in that dry, clever way we appreciate. He liked you a lot to say that. :-)
It was so good to meet you all at that shoot. Please give Mrs. V1Rotate a hug and kiss from me.
Will do and give Keith our regards.
Ahh damn, that really sucks. He was a good dog man.
I’ll miss him and FR is poorer for his passing.
RIP FRiend. May we run our dogs together in Heaven.
I sure will, FRiend. God bless you both.
Thanks Ms LUV W for the news, kind of hard to process this right now.
My condolences to the Eaker’s at this trying time.
Deepest Regards

You’ve acquitted yourself very well here
I don’t know what drives men to the desperation they find themselves in
Nobody wishes to be there .....quiet or not so quiet despondency
As you get old you see so much hurt manifest over the years in folks that you wish you’d had a way to know the future and persuade them to change course when they could
But you’re correct......you’re devastating those who care about you
Especially kids
A legacy that is so burdensome and often gets passed on
Sad just sad..
I stayed on his good side...he did not suffer forum fools gladly...nor do I admittedly
Never had a cross word with him.
I liked him
Sorry to hear this.
God bless his family.
Thanks, Laz. I am numb.
Sigh...
His Grandfather
Praying for his family.
