I knew SEAL as someone who's posts I always respected; although I agreed with him most of the time, I would learn something whether I agreed or not, and that is the best I can say of any writing. If you were to collect a 'best of' SEAL's posts, they would include every one.

My heart is broken. I so enjoyed reading SEAL's posts. He will be sorely missed. My deepest condolences to his family.

Rest in peace Seal and thanks for fighting the good fight.
My sincerest condolences to the family.

Damn, I did not even know he was sick, all I knew was that he was not around much. damn. Seal will be missed.

Thank you for letting us know, Sandy.

Rob, SEAL was fighting this cancer for 3 years and finally lost the fight. I will invite Dinah to join us here when she feels she can.

I am very saddened by this news and I've sure missed his posts recently. Of course I never met him, but I so looked forward to and enjoyed his posts and learned much from them. He certainly fought a brave fight and I was extra worried about him after reading his last few posts. Dinah, my deepest sympathies to you and your family. Thank you, Sandra, for informing us.....an American Hero indeed.

Seal's insight and comments will be missed. We need more Seals in the world.

I will sorely miss SEAL's presence here. He was so intelligent and articulate. I'm very sorry he's gone. R.I.P. SEAL. We need more human beings like you in the world, not less. sniff, sniff....

I'm going to email this information to Mrs. SEAL next week to show her how much we appreciated her husband's concerned over our political mess. He brought many good fixes for us to work on and as far as CHB is concerned this is a great legacy for any American to leave on the internet.

I will leave this us until Doug has a chance to make a statement.

I thought of SEAL as a teacher. That is about the highest compliment I know. He is sadly missed.

Sincerely,

Kent Shaw

SEAL has transcended this earthly plane, but I know his spirit lives within all of us who share his thoughts concerning our never-ending fight against the forces of tyranny stalking this great nation.

Thanks SEAL for your service to the nation and for sharing your respected thoughts with the members of this forum.

My sincerest condolences go out to his family and friends.

Rest in peace my friend.

I'll remember seal as a patriot and intellectual. I'll miss his comments and his point of view. His family will be in our prayers.

I really enjoyed talking about history with Seal and making correlations between various historical events and the implications of them, and as many posters have stated, Seal was a teacher, and posted on CHB even if he wasn't feeling very well. Thank You Seal, you made a difference.

I will remember Seal as an astute intellect. Seal' posts were always a learning experience for me. He was well read, well versed, and well written. I remember when it was becoming almost impossible for him to post on CHB, had not let us in on this fact, no one would have been able to tell by his last post...as he remained intelligent, articulate and brave to the end. May he rest in peace, and may his wife and family find comfort in the knowledge that Seal was admired and respected by folks who never had the pleasure of meeting him, yet felt we knew him.
