TMM MEMBERS WHO HAVE PASSED ON
« on: August 31, 2016, 11:43:58 am »
It is with sad regret, that we post here, news received of TMM members who have passed on to an even greater forum. May they always know they were appreciated as a part of this great conversation.

May The Long Time Sun Shine Upon Them,
All Love Surround Them and
The Pure Light Within Them
Guide Their Way On.

REST IN PEACE:

George Potter

Hangman

Speaker

Captain Gregory Gooch

If anyone unfortunately has to add a member or other information below, I will attempt to update this initial post.

If anyone has a better suggestion for communicating such sad news, please feel free to post here or PM me. Perhaps it could be a  sticky.

Unfortunately, I was not around when George was here. I have read his writings though. SUPERB!

I was definitely here for Hangman and Speaker. I most certainly miss them both. Especially Speaker. He was a snarky bastard too. :threvil: I always felt that the two of us "connected". He always made me laugh.

R.I.P. Gooch.  You will be missed.

He helped me quite a bit with my reloading hobby when I was first getting started.  Even snail-mailed me a few things.  I will miss his sage advice.

I don't know colonial shooter. The official announcement has yet to be made and will be on POL.

I or someone will re-post it here when available. As I'm sure with us all, "my heart is on the ground."

More on Susan
Published July 19, 2018 2:02 pm by Claire

"People have been asking about memorial services, sending flowers, and other actions to honor MamaLiberty’s memory.

Susan’s sister Sandra has been kind enough to give me some information. There will be no service. Susan will be cremated and her ashes scattered. There’s no good place to send flowers, but there are plenty of other ways to honor ML.

Sandra writes, “Her friends are welcome to hold whatever [memorial service] they would like to; I know she would appreciate it. Go to the gun range and shoot some rounds in her memory.LOL LOL.”

Yeah, Susan would definitely appreciate us going out and either improving our marksmanship and/or making joyful freedom noises in her name.

Tom Knapp suggested that we make donations in Susan’s name to the freedom organizations of our choice.

A few that come to mind:

Rational Review News Digest (Susan was a daily reader)

Gun Owners of America.

The Zelman Partisans

Your local hardcore gun-rights group.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation

Susan also loved flowers, herbs, and gardening in general. So planting a tree or small garden in her memory would be appropriate. Or maybe placing a small statue or plaque in special spot.

And for anybody wondering about ML’s beloved corgi, Laddie: He’s in good hands with two young men who were already friends of his before Susan died. And there’s also a Plan B, just in case.

For now, that’s all I know."

Thank You Claire for the information.

Thanks for the info Tahn.  I'm putting some cilantro in the ground and will think of ML.

Oh, and I'll pop off a few rounds while I'm at it.
