Free Republic

FRiends, Do you know the screen name of this departed Freeper? Her real name was Diane Berry, aka Diane Bruskas and Diane (Bruskas) Berry. She was active in the FR Facebook group but sadly passed away in January 2022. She lived in the Phoenix, AZ area. Here's a link to her FB page. https://www.facebook.com/diane.bruskasberryAnd to her obituary. https://www.whitneymurphyfuneralhome.com/obituaries/berry-diane-bruskasMaybe share this in the FB group? I'm not a member there. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Without a real-world contact, sometimes FReepers go quiet and are never heard from again, and we don't know what happened.

Anyone know what happened to Weegee, one of our rock and roll experts round here. Last post was Jan 09. No opus on file.

In addition to being perhaps my only ally on a wide range of issues wideawake is one of the most intelligent people on this forum (his IQ has got to be something!). I can't help but think it isn't like him to just disappear for so long without telling someone here. Yet he has and, so...
