Our Free Republic has lost a great friend. Heaven has made room for another voice. May he rest in peace.

Oh my... Just caught his End of Cancer thread the other day, and was so heartened to read it.

Godspeed FRiend,
Tatt

How sad. I didn’t know Congressman BillyBob personally, but I considered him a personal friend. CBB, you will be missed.

Oh mna, I am stunned. I was just thinking about him today. Didn’t know about the cancer.

Prayers up!

Prayers up Congressman Billy Bob. I have enjoyed your posts here at Free Republic and am thankful for the work you have done for the sake of The United States of America and her Constitution. Good job, sir! May God receive and keep you in His kingdom and comfort those nearest to you in their time of mourning. Rest in peace, Billy Bob.

Adding my respect to this wonderful creative human being’s passing.

We were priviledged to have him post here.

Rest in peace, dear Congressman.

We will carry the torch.

Thanks to Sunken Civ and DollyCali for posting the sad news of Congressman Billy Bob’s passing.

The Congressman was one of the first people I “met” when I joined FR in 1998. I enjoyed his posts, and will miss him.

May God bless John and the fmaily and friends he leaves behind.

Breaks my heart to read this sad news. What a devastating loss.

John was a masterful writer who always constructed clear, intelligent, logical, clever, well-argued, deeply informed, & persuasive essays. I enjoyed reading his articulate thoughts immensely.

Thank you, Congressman BillyBob, for fighting tirelessly for freedom & the sane application of legal principles, with a wonderful sense of humor.

May you rest in eternal peace, John. May G-d comfort your family and all who mourn for you on this forum and across America.

I was hoping to meet John on 9/12 in DC. We’ll certainly miss him down here.

R.I.P. Billybob, FR’s loss is heaven’s gain.

Anyone notice? the flags came back today.

Oh no! I am shocked and very saddened. I did not know he had been ill. I always looked forward to Congressman BillyBob’s comments, since I knew I would find wit, common sense and scholarship rolled up in one package. RIP, FRiend.
