I've been asked to post this heartfelt note from Ted Olson -- to all of you. Despite everything he's going through -- professionally and privately -- he hasn't forgotten the loves of his life ... and those of his beautiful wife Barbara, who obviously cared for you. Hence this email to you. God bless. God bless Ted and all those who died ... and live on. And God bless America.

Thank you for this post. What an inspiration Ted Olson is, as was Barbara!!! I am happy to hear that he knows how much she was loved and that it brought him comfort. May God keep Ted strong and may Barbara's beautiful memory continue to sustain him.

Barbara is a hero, she had the steel resolve to report what was happening in a calm cool collected manner in the face of death. She is an example for us all.

A note to Ted Olson:

Our nation has suffered a great loss through the death of your wife, but that loss pales by comparison to your own. Words scarcely suffice to provide comfort but we are determined that she shall not have died in vain.

May God bless and keep you and yours, sir.

[comitatus]

My prayers and thanks to both of these American heroes.

Barbara was always a joy to watch on her frequent talk show appearances. She will be truly missed by me and many other decent citizens of the USA.

God Bless Her and her very decent husband Ted!

I think about Barbara a lot. Ted, she'll be with you always - you know that.

We all love and miss Barbara thanks for the post, I received her book today, she was a tough defender of the truth and set a standard which will be hard to equal.

This must be so difficult for Mr. Olson and all of the other people who lost a spouse... I've never even had a close girlfriend, I can't imagine what it's like to lose someone you've dedicated your life to.

I hope the survivors remain strong, and are able to find happiness again.

God bless Mr. Olson and his family.
Barbara, Memory Eternal

Dear Mr. Olson:

I am deeply saddened by this tragedy and the loss of your wife. My prayers are with you and your family. Please know that your wife's stand for integrity, honesty, and accountability in government has not been forgotten. Her legacy may very well be that Clintonia will be finally, fully, and with substantive evidence be revealed for the infection that it is. She was a great and courageous woman and will be sorely missed.

Thank you Sir. God Bless you, and God Bless America.

Sincerely, Patrick Mallon

God Bless You Ted!

I always enjoyed watching Barbara on certain TV talk shows - especially during the Bush-Gore election fiasco in Florida.

Just pinging in case the note from Ted Olson is of interest.

The knowledge of how much Barbara was loved and admired

Please, keep in your heart the knowledge of how much Barbara IS loved and admired by Freepers, as well as you too Ted.

Believe me, WE know what the meaning of is, "is".

[jellybean]

Ted,

Our hearts and prayers go out to you. As you can see, Barbara was loved and admired here at Free Republic.

Stay strong. Stay safe

Thanks for posting this Paul.
My wife and I continue in our daily prayers for Ted and for all the family and friends of Barbara's.
There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of Barbara several times and she is deeply missed.
There isn't a day that goes by that I feel heavy hearted for Ted and the pain he must be going through.
There isn't a day that goes by that I don't shed a tear at the thought of Barbara on the plane and the strength and courage she must have brought to those around her.
She was a hero to my wife and I and we couldn't wait to see her on TV when she was on a show.
We bought her book this weekend and have read the first three chapters and I think the book is fantastic. We are also going to be buying a copy of the book for everyone on our Christmas list.
Barbara will never be forgotten in our house and our prayers will never cease for strength and comfort for Ted.
