It is with great sadness that we mourn the loss of Bob Owens, a true patriot and a man who took many hard hits for the team. He and I corresponded in those early heady days of blogging and making connections; IIRC he even posted here a few times. His blog Bearing Arms was a champion for 2nd amendment gun rights. Although I didn't know him well, and haven't spoken with him in years, my heart is heavy. Bob was a rock, and an all-around good man. He'll be missed.
I don't know what demons drove him to end his young life. We all have our battles. Bob, we'll do our best to carry on the fight, but your shoes will be hard to fill. Rest in peace, dear man. We've got this.
Heartfelt condolences to Bob's family and many friends.
