I'll never forget one of the longest and funniest threads I've ever seen on FR was when that uppety snob tried to bich out ol Tonk for pingin so many FReepers to his posts and threads. It just went on and on and on and got funnier with each reply!
I'm still on the ping list the Alaska person took over from him and has faithfully administered. I first met him on the Battle for the Klamath Falls potato(e) farmers threads here on FR. The man had a fighting spirit, yet was humble and FRiendly!!!
He will be missed!!!

Oh no! I didn't realize he was so sick. I truly admired Tonk. He never, ever gave up the fight against John Kerry's lies.
I am really sad today. Please send my heartfelt condolences to Tonk's family.

This man was intense and absolutely without any doubt, truly dedicated to our service men and women. His posts, quite simply, stood out, I had to read each and everyone of them.!
That pretty much sums up my thoughts on Tonk. Thanks for putting it much more eloquently than I could.

Rest In Peace, my friend
To: MoJo2001
My heartfelt thoughts reach out in love and comfort to Tonk's family. Embrace this noble servant, oh Lord, we pray.
Oh beautiful for heroes proved in liberating strife
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine
