BuddyRey has left us

[Dianne]

Just wanted the Forums to know that BuddyRey aka Philip Barrett Reynolds left this world today at the age of 31. He introduced me to Ron Paul and this forum in 2007. He passed during surgery for a brain infection. He was a great patriot and a lover of liberty and will surely be missed by all that came to know him. He was the kindest, most gentle, friendly, accepting human being one could ever meet.

Wow....never knew what he was going through...

[cajuncocoa]

Oh no...I'm so very sorry to hear this. He was always one of my favorite people here. He will be sorely missed.

RIP, Buddy.

OMG!!! NOOOOO!!! *cries* :'( R.I.P., brother Phillip. There's no way to replace you, evarr. May your memory be eternal.

Wow. 31 is far too young.

RIP, buddy.

[Pericles]

Wow. 31 is far too young.

RIP, buddy.

Indeed it is

[Suzanimal]

I'm so sorry to hear this. He was such a cool guy.
RIP, BuddyRey

That sucks

He will be missed.

R.I.P. Philip

[Cleaner44]

I will miss his posts, so I am adding his last post here.

Imo, if any of them respond, it'll only be by way of forwarding your thoughtcrime and Twitter handle to the Cyber Poh-lice where you'll be backtraced

[pcosmar]

Rest in Peace.

You escaped the worst.

[William Tell]

I am so saddened to hear that. Buddy was really nice, I remember getting + reps from him. He had a cool avatar too. I didn't know his age, 31 is so young. I hope to meet you in Heaven, Buddy.

RIP

[heavenlyboy34]

I recited a trisagion for the dead in his memory. Will be mourning for at least 40 days. :'( Hoping to meet him in heaven one day. He was a good Quaker and IMO a far nicer and better man than I.

[VIDEODROME]

Sad. He seemed like a really nice good natured person here.

[tangent4ronpaul]

RIP Phil

I'm going to miss seeing his avatar and posts.

God damn it...just... ah $#@!...

Rest in peace brother.

Did he leave any family?

If so, anything that can be done as an online community to help?

Gunny, you knew him IRL didn't you?

One of my favorite all-time posters. Such a good man with a good heart. He is already deeply missed, and will only be missed more in the future.

I did not know him well IRL really, we crossed paths a couple times, and he came out once to help me canvass for my State Senate race and another time at some event I spoke at, but GOP stuff and conventions were not really his thing, and given that I have taken the electoral path we didn't really run in the same circles.

I am a bit devastated, because I've kept telling myself for so long that I wanted to go shake his hand and say hello, and never managed to make that happen. :'(

As I understand it, he was steadfast in faith, and rests in God now. God speed ye good and faithful soul into your reward, and may we meet again on the other side. He was taken too young, and he was taken too early; but his suffering in this lost and dying world is over.

A place is missing in my heart now. Rest in peace.

So a prayer is not at all out of order?

I don't think so. But everyone mourns their own way. I'm singing/listening to troparians here in his memory as well as praying.

Not a bad way to honor and pay tribute to Buddy.

Reach out to someone, today, that you have been meaning to do, but keep putting off.

Heal old wounds.

Bury old hatchets.

Because life is short, death is quick, and you may never get the chance again.

Well put.

Preach it brother. Good vibes for Buddy. Great advice and exactly what he would have said.

My god, this makes me so sad that I can't even read this thread, mostly because I'm crying. He was such a sweet guy.

Yah, have a hug, for what it's worth in 1 and 0s.

I feel the same way, we talked a few times, I missed meeting up with him in NC a few years back.

Seemed like a great guy.

[Natural Citizen]

Hm. Damn. I'm sorry to hear this news.
