May God Rest his soul! I will really miss his threads and posts. How very sad.

I never even made the connection with ACRU, and I am a member. I believe I read his name here too, but even though I was familiar with his name from ACRU, I still didn’t make the connection.

Prayers for his family and friends. He is a Freeper who will be missed very much.

Condolences to John's family, friends and colleages.
One of the Freepers I respected most, and to my surprise, a southern gentleman.

He will be missed, but not forgotten.

What a shame.
I aways went to his freep home page to check out his posts on his constitutional perspective on current issues.

I will miss you John.

I am so sorry to hear this. I had a few private emails with him and was pleased and proud that he would respond to my inquires.

I will keep him and his family in my prayers.

Yes he was, and always will be one the finest FR has to offer, no doubt about it.

This is terrible! I so loved his wit and wisdom he freely shared on FR. This is a huge loss to the nation.

My regards and condolences to his family.

Terrible news. One of my all-time favorite Freepers.

God rest your soul, John. May yours and all the souls of the faithful departed, rest in peace.

Oh, thank you for the article ... I’m so happy to hear he re-found such happiness since last we talked. Reminds me of how happy T’wit was to marry before we lost him too.

I'm so surprised. I saw his cancer thread and thought he was on the mend. Sooo sad

Prayers for his family. He will always be with us!

Safe in the arms of Jesus
Safe on His gentle breast

Our prayers go out to all who loved him.

Just wow. I am totally gob-smacked to read this. He was one of my favorite FReepers and authors. He will be sorely missed.
