Hello fellow Freepers,
This is a message from the family of GitmoSailor, or Gus, as we knew him.
Gus passed away on Tuesday. He left us in poor health and is no longer suffering. Thanks to all of you who made his last days bearable. He thoroughly enjoyed his time on-line, especially to express his political views and points. Thank you again for giving him a forum to view and respond to world politics and current affairs. Thank you for providing him with a much needed past time. To any wishing to express condolences we will check this board for the next few months until we are ready to close his account. Thank you, The family of GitmoSailor, A.K.A. J.R., A.K.A. Gus
OMG.
Prayers and best wishes!
Blessings to the family.Sail on Gus!
God bless.
Thank you for letting us know. Prayers for him, and for your family.
Dies irae, dies illa
solvet saeclum in favilla:
teste David cum Sibylla.
Quantus tremor est futurus,
quando judex est venturus,
cuncta stricte discussurus!
Tuba mirum spargens sonum
per sepulcra regionum,
coget omnes ante thronum.
Mors stupebit et natura,
cum resurget creatura,
judicanti responsura.
Liber scriptus proferetur,
in quo totum continetur,
unde mundus judicetur.
Judex ergo cum sedebit,
quidquid latet apparebit:
nil inultum remanebit.
Quid sum miser tunc dicturus?
Quem patronum rogaturus,
cum vix justus sit securus?
Rex tremendae majestatis,
qui salvandos salvas gratis,
salva me fons pietatis.
Recordare, Jesu pie,
quod sum causa tuae viae:
ne me perdas illa die.
Quaerens me, sedisti lassus:
redemisti Crucem passus:
tantus labor non sit cassus.
Juste judex ultionis,
donum fac remissionis
ante diem rationis.
Ingemisco, tamquam reus:
culpa rubet vultus meus:
supplicanti parce, Deus.
Qui Mariam absolvisti,
et latronem exaudisti,
mihi quoque spem dedisti.
Preces meae non sunt dignae:
sed tu bonus fac benigne,
ne perenni cremer igne.
Inter oves locum praesta,
et ab haedis me sequestra,
statuens in parte dextra.
Confutatis maledictis,
flammis acribus addictis:
voca me cum benedictis.
Oro supplex et acclinis,
cor contritum quasi cinis:
gere curam mei finis.
Lacrimosa dies illa,
qua resurget ex favilla
judicandus homo reus.
Huic ergo parce, Deus:
pie Jesu Domine,
dona eis requiem. Amen.
Prayers for GS and Family.
God Bless.

UNDER the wide and starry sky
Dig the grave and let me lie:
Glad did I live and gladly die,
And I laid me down with a will.
This be the verse you ‘grave for me:
Here he lies where he long’d to be;
Home is the sailor, home from the sea,
And the hunter home from the hill.
RIP Sailor.
Prayers to the family of GitmoSailor.
I’m so very sorry.
RIP. Sorry for your loss
When my freeper friend and real life friend passed away,
JR let me put her on the memorial wall. You should do that.
It’s a real tribute to be listed with the good people there.
Fair winds and following seas, sailor.
May he rest in peace.
Prayers up. God bless you all.
Rest in peace GitmoSailor. You will be missed.
Farewell sailor.

Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

God bless, GitmoSailor.
You will be missed.
Sunset and evening star
and one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
when I put out to sea.
For though from out our bourne
of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
when I have crossed the bar.
...Alfred Lord Tennyson
GitmoSailor has crossed the bar. Rest in Peace.
