Sad news: FReeper T'wit has passed away
August 4, 2007 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 08/04/2007 2:52:12 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

We received word this morning that FReeper T'wit, Timothy Wheeler, has died. His son said that he passed away quickly, apparently, with not much distress.

T'wit was one of our earliest members and was a tireless worker for Life and Liberty. He was a good man and will be greatly missed.

Prayers for his family and loved ones.

Godspeed, dear friend.

Oh no. That's terrible news. Did his son say what he died from? Is there an address we can send cards to?

Prayers go out for his loved ones. May God comfort them and give them strength in the difficult days ahead.

I am deeply saddened to hear this news. Tim and I grew close while working on the Arkansas prison blood scandal in the late 1990s. I was as impressed by him in person as I had been when I knew him only through his writing. He was as delightfully witty as his FR nickname would lead you to expect, and as principled and good a man as you could ever hope to meet.

My deepest sympathy goes out to his family.

Tim, we were blessed to know you. May God now bless you and keep you.

His trials and tribulations are over; No more must he exist in and struggle within the swamp our nation is becoming, for our Father has taken him home.

I come to this thread belatedly. It is a tough thing for me to do as Tim was a dear friend. We were in the midst of planning a couple of trips in the last days, and for an upcoming adventure in pursuit of our mutual topic, Terri's Legacy. I am hoping visitors will stop by our thread to pay tribute.

Thanks for the ping Wallaby, even though it is a terribly sad one.

I will miss our conversations and his wit.
