Bummer
RIP Arfin.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Garry and I had become good friends over the last few years due to our gun forums. When my mother passed away in 2008 he wrote a touching poem that I read at her funeral. Garry struggled with and fended off cancer for the last few years but he never lost his good humor. Not long ago it came back and was not treatable. I'm gonna miss you pal.

I didn't really know much about him, but when one of us on the forum passes, we are all diminished. RIP.

He hadn’t been on APS since 2014.  But regardless, he will be missed.

Sad to see another leave the ranks. RIP, good sir.

That's a shame.  RIP, sir.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
