Thank you so much for posting that picture of Brian at the wall. I was going to post one of the pics from his home page but nothing captures his passion more than that photo and accompanying statement. I think I hear someone telling us “Charlie Mike.”

Very pained to hear this. But knowing that Tonk is carving out some space for other FReepers up there brings some peace of mind.

From the time I started posting on this forum, Tonk was someone whose positive attitude always shone through in his posts. Free Republic has lost a great one.
