Farewell to one of the finest legal minds, if not the greatest ever on FR. Another patriot goes to his just reward in heaven.
Goodbye and God Bless John Armor.
The shock is gone, the sadness lingers. We will all miss him, but he left so much of himself with us. We are all better people for having known The (More er Less) Honorable Congressman Billybob. That makes me smile.
God bless John Armour and his family. He was a good man.
Oh no! Prayers up for his family and friends. So sad!
That’s terribly sad news. My condolences to his family and friends.
Sad news.
Condolances to and prayers for his family.
He will be sorely missed.
I have known John on this forum for years and immensely enjoyed my many conversations with him over the time. He was a great American whom the Lord has now called home to His bosom.
He will be sorely missed as a freind, and as a patriotic American in the fight we are engaged in. I cannot say why the Lord took Him home as He did, or for that matter, why, to date, I have been suffered to remain through a similar set of circumstances (cancer, surgery, rehab, etc.). I only know it is God's will...of this I am sure and have no doubt, and therefore, as hard as it may be, we move forward.
It is what John would want, and what we must do if we are to retain our freedom and liberty and way of life, which John worked so hard to retain, for the rising generations, our own children and their children before us.
God bless you John, you will be sorely missed. I look forward to meeting you one day on high and thanking you for all you have done, and for your friendship here on these boards.
Jeff, when I posted this thread & sent out the initial ping, YOU were the first one I thought of..
God’s sieve of life.
We don’t ever know do we? When you were going though your initial ordeal, you truly did not know if you would survive... many people posted to encourage you along the way.
It is interesting that some of those encouragers will possibly be meeting our maker before you.
God’s timing and will are perfect even if we don’t agree or understand quite often.
I also thought of Ray Malone/Common Tator, another keen mind & patriot who had a long ordeal with cancer, was a survivor for a decade & then fought those last few years or re-occurrence with spirit & determination.
Then there is Tony Snow and his story.
God bless you friend. I know you are grateful for the time God has given you. You have been chosen to have extra time for a reason, possibly something new, which I am guessing to be the case. Now it is your job to be open to the vast options
May he RIP - what a great Freeper.
Amen Jeff, Amen.
RIP
Thank you, and God bless YOU Dolly. I also posted an update to my condition on the main prayer thread. God help us stay firm in the faith, and reclaim and retain our birthright to liberty...which He has bestowed upon us.
His contributions to FR will be sorely missed.
Sad to see him go.
Sad news. Dang cancer wreaking havoc. He’ll certainly be missed.
R.I.P.... in the heavenly sidebar...
RIP Congressman BillyBob.
R.I.P. Liberty has lost a champion.
God bless him and keep him.
We’re sure going to miss him.
He will be missed...one of the sharpest conservative minds I have ever read.
