Remembering Sarge...



Our family is deeply saddened to inform you that Sarge passed away Friday night. This blog was one of his deepest passions and he enjoyed interacting with each and every one of you, except for Joe. He thought Joe was an asshole.

Thank you for reading and frequenting this blog.


Sincerely,


Sarge's son, Private. 


Edit: Thank you to everyone that's replied and offered their condolences. You all meant as much to him as he meant to you.

  2. Thank you for taking the time during your grief to inform us. Please know that he brought much joy and happiness to a lot of people.

    And probably peeved off quite a few people who deserved it, in only the way he knew how.

    Godspeed, Sarge, Godspeed.

Sarge will be sorely missed. And all us here at Command Center Alpha (our family)send our prayers and condolences to you and all of yours.
