Rest in peace Andy.
I had nothing but admiration and respect for you. |

Rest In Peace SOTB

Rest In Peace. Your voice will be missed- you had the rare gift of forcing others to think and confront their own position.
|
RIP Devil Dog. Prayers, well wishes to your loved ones. This website and our world are definitely lesser places with you no longer around. Blue skies and eternal peace.

RIP, Andy. The loss is heavy, but I hope your spirit is free. Semper Fi.
|
Rest in Peace SOTB.
Can't believe I just typed that; he was definitely a huge part of what makes this place what it is. In the last few years of lurking and posting here, I've enjoyed reading his posts and respected his straightforward responses. Critical or not, there was always something to learn from. After reading some of the posts here from those who knew him personally, I wish I would've had the opportunity to meet him. |
R.I.P SOTB. Thanks for your wisdom and insights. Prayers out for your family.
|
Respect. :(

RIP SOTB,
Death is nothing at all I have only slipped away into the next room I am I and you are you Whatever we were to each other That we are still Call me by my old familiar name Speak to me in the easy way you always used Put no difference into your tone Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow Laugh as we always laughed At the little jokes we always enjoyed together Play, smile, think of me, pray for me Let my name be ever the household word that it always was Let it be spoken without effort Without the ghost of a shadow in it Life means all that it ever meant It is the same as it ever was There is absolute unbroken continuity What is death but a negligible accident? Why should I be out of mind Because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you for an interval Somewhere very near Just around the corner All is well. Nothing is past; nothing is lost One brief moment and all will be as it was before How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again! ~Henry Scott-Holland, 1847-1918, Canon of St Paul's Cathedral |
Damn.
Rest in Peace SOTB. Very eloquent post, KidA. I only met Andy once, at that small SoCal linkup in Redondo Beach along with you, Forestboy, Hot Mess and WGN175. He ate a steak as big as a catcher's mitt, and I'm pretty sure he ordered dessert. Good times... |
RIP, SOTB.
To family, comrades, and friends of Mr. Andy Potts - so sorry for your loss. His articulate thoughts have educated me about many things and for that I am thankful as a guest. SOTB's posts never left a doubt where he stood - devotion to family, his military brothers, and this country with an original independent perspective. |
SOTB's public posts were always of sharp wit and often of deep insight when he was in the mood, but his PM exchanges with me were uniformly kind and generous. He was a man of well-chosen words and a deeply devoted father, two things this world could use a lot more of.
|
Blue skies, Andy. You were definitely one of a kind, and will be missed.
|
RIP Andy.
|
RIP Sir, and for those who knew him personally, I am sorry for your loss.
|
I never met SOTB, but I valued his wise counsel on many a topic. We are diminished.
|
Sorry to hear about the loss of a great guy.
RIP, Condolences to family and friends... |
Rest easy Andy.
|
RIP SOTB :(
|
RIP SOTB. Thank you for your insights and words of wisdom.
|
Shocked and very saddened by the news.
|
Damn dust in here right now.
Shocked and saddened. Just read all the previous posts celebrating his life and am now sitting in my office with tears streaming down my face. Some may find that strange to shed tears for a man I have never met in person, and simply knew on an internet site. But, I always felt he was a good man. Sometimes we agreed sometimes we disagreed, but through it all, he was professional and a class act. The world and this site are a bleaker place today. RIP Warrior |
Rest easy warrior
|
I am in shock reading this...SOTB was a pillar on here, he was very eloquent with his wording and always added value to the site, never knew him personally, but got to enjoy a couple of laughs with him on here from time to time. Thoughts and prayers go out to all his family and friends - I will miss seeing him post, always enjoyed his take on things.
|
RIP Andy.
Your posts will be missed, your PM's and advice will be missed and I am saddened that I will not get to meet you face to face and shake your hand. Fuck cancer. |
Damn, never met the man but I sure enjoyed reading everything he wrote on Socnet. RIP.
|
Words escape me....what a loss!!
RIP Andy and Godspeed to his family! Damn..:mad: |
Although I didn't always agree with him, his arguments were always so well thought out and well spoken that it was hard to argue with them........and he changed my opinions on a few things too. RIP Sir. You'll be missed around here. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.
|
Damn.RIP. I always enjoyed reading his posts on here.
