Our FRiend Windflier has passed. I've just gotten the news from his wife. He had been battling cancer for a while now. I'm sure the family would appreciate prayers,. Thanks.
Sad news...i chatted with him in freepmail about hospice awhile back...may he rest in peace
This is VERY SAD NEWS!! Prayers for family!!!
Really very sorry to hear this news.
Deepest condolences to his wife and children and family and friends.
Rest in peace, Windflier.
Sorry.
“just imagine what he’s seeing up there now?”
Can’t believe you said that.
At my pop’s wake, the priest said something along those lines.
And then he added..”Many of us will experience it one day, And I Can’t Wait!”
Crazy to remember that 36 years later.
Sorry to hear.
The guy was solid.
A Solid American.
You could just tell.
So sad to hear about one of my favorite FReeps. RIP good sir, and prayers for your family and friends as they mourn your loss.
Heaven’s chapter of Free Republic will be gain another valued member.
So sorry to hear this. Prayers for his family.
It doesnt seem like this long ago..but I found the thread
Tell Me About Hospice Care (stage four cancer)

Ive long thought some of us should park an obituary with a fellow freeper that can just go on the Wall when they havent been heard from in a few weeks.
God rest his soul.
Eternal rest grant unto Windflier O Lord and
may perpetual light shine upon him
may his soul and all the souls of the faithfully departed
through the Mercy of God
rest in peace.

Good man, smart man, I’ll miss his posts.
God bless his family and friends.
Man I had to go CRAZY tracking down Farmer Dean when I hadn’t heard from him for some months.
He’d been very sick and recovered and then disappeared again.
Found him and he was in a hospital but doing well.
But you’re right.
Some that have been FReepers for a very long time can just disappear from the board one day and not be heard from again.
And that would be a shame.
Actually, i’m gonna give him a call now. Thanks for reminding me.
Prayers up!
Sorry to hear. He was a great patriot and Freeper. Condolences to his family.
Condolences to his family and to you as his good friend.
Windflier was, and always will be, an example of what makes FR and America great. He was no doubt a model and a leader in all areas of his life. RIP!
