Dear FRiends, As you may have noticed, FR's Memorial Wall hasn't been updated in quite a while, since 2022. In that time, we've lost at least fifteen Freepers (probably more). These are friends who not only deserve a place of honor on the Wall but need a place where they can be "found" and remembered. To that end, we suggest the following update to the Wall (posted in the comments below). The tedious html work is already finished!All a moderator--or anyone with access--would have to do is copy-n-paste the updated html into the existing Wall's code, somewhere after the most...

Anyone see this? In the Whitehurst Sullivan Burns & Blair Funeral Home's Guestbook for Jim Robinson, there was the following response to Joe Alfieri’s post there: “FreeRepublic gave a voice to millions? Lol. No. FR gave voice to thousands of people who probably shouldn’t talk about anything because Boomers are addicted to giving unsolicited opinions about things they simply don’t understand.” Bill Clinton

Thank you all for your prayers and condolences. My dad's graveside service was simply beautiful! They played two of his favorite songs: "Blue Bayou" by Linda Ronstadt and "Zion" by Aaron Shust. Yvonne took several short videos of the service - as well as from the viewing the night before, and I'm posting mostly image captures from those videos. I'll continue working on this over the coming days.

I attended Jim's graveside service. I feel like I should post something about it, to give Freepers and his Family some peace. I'm sure his son Chris has many things to do besides make a post about this, so I'm going to do one for him. Hope he doesn't mind. It was a small and Solemn service. A Navy Funeral Presence was there... from the near by base of Lemoore Naval Air Station. They did the United States Flag folding ceremony, and also played Taps. The Rabbi who presided over it, said a wonderful prayer, about mourning death... it wasn't...

The tolerant left, am I right? On September 17, a woman in Texas allegedly left a "gift bag" filled with hateful screeds inside Beth-El Bible Church in El Paso, Texas, before a Charlie Kirk vigil. Outside the church, the woman then started a fire. From the Christian Post: Inside the bag, investigators later found vulgar threats and a handwritten Bible verse, along with business cards tied to the suspect. Police in El Paso arrested 35-year-old Marynka Zarina Marquez of Denton and charged her with arson for the Sept. 17 incident outside Beth El Bible Church. What the heck was this...

Charlie Kirk Memorial in Oregon. Jesus is lifted up and many saved. https://rumble.com/v6zlxj8-charlie-kirk-candlelight-memorial.html

National leaders proclaiming the gospel in a moment of intense tragedy and turmoil is exactly what the nation needs.At the memorial for Charlie Kirk on Sunday, some of the highest-ranking members of the federal government boldly proclaimed the gospel message of human sin and salvation through Christ. It was a powerful moment, and one of many in which Kirk’s death was used to share the same Christianity he constantly preached on college campuses.The moment was a rebuke to the persistent idea of some Christians that citizenship in a heavenly kingdom means we should avoid using earthly political avenues to advance...

MASSIVE MOMENT: Charlie Kirk’s memorial livestream reached over 100 million people, according to TPUSA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet — who added the number is “likely much larger.”

Tens of thousands packed into the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday to pay their respects to the late conservative political activist Charlie Kirk, whose legacy was marked by his outspoken Christian faith and promotion of the Gospel. Speakers eulogizing Kirk's life included political leaders such as President Donald Trump, White House cabinet officials, Turning Point USA and TPUSA Faith employees and conservative media influencers, as well as musical performances by prominent Christian artists. Kirk's murder on Sept. 10 at the hands of an alleged 22-year-old shooter at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, has prompted an...

(Musk): Charlie was someone who believed in dialog and open debate. He was a man of ideas. He spoke eloquently. He basically never even raised his voice. He was a man of peace. And now he has been murdered in cold blood. (Questioner): Did you know him personally? (Musk): Yes, of course. We met many times. (Questioner): How was he like? (Musk): I supported his organization. I supported Turning Point financially. (Questioner): Why was he killed? (Musk): He was killed because his words made a difference. Because he was showing people the light. And he was killed by the dark....

Erika Kirk, widow of Charlie Kirk, spoke at the memorial event for Charlie Kirk being held at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

The memorial service for Charlie Kirk has reached capacity at State Farm Stadium, authorities said — as they began turning away some of the 200,000 people who turned out to honor the slain MAGA icon.

“An armed man who was posing as a member of law enforcement was arrested by Secret Service agents at the Arizona stadium where Charlie Kirk’s funeral will be held Sunday, according to reports. The man was detained by State Farm Stadium, home to the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals, in Glendale on Friday, the Secret Service told Fox News Digital.”

Thousands gathered on the Boston Common, with dozens of dissenters interrupting, to hold a candlelight vigil for far-right activist Charlie Kirk. ----------------- “Things were already getting a little dicey by the antifa counter-protest, and we hadn’t had any violence yet so it was going good, and I got that call,” Foley said. “They were worried that people were going to probably attack on the way home.” Another protester had ditched a backpack, which ended up being empty, and ran away to create a panic, Foley said.

Federal law enforcement agencies, a new assessment released Thursday, said they are "tracking several threats of unknown credibility" against people planning to attend Sunday's Charlie Kirk memorial in Glendale, Arizona. Those people include President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and members of the Kirk family, according to the report. "Violent extremists and unaffiliated lone offenders may view the memorial service or related events as attractive attack targets due to the attendance of these individuals, other senior US government officials, state and local government officials, and political activists and due to major international media attention," according to the memo issued...

This is the modern Left: VIDEO AT LINK................. Non-political people are starting to pay attention and are beginning to learn who Charlie Kirk actually was. They're also learning what kind of people these leftist activists are.
