W-RP] Prayers for the late Remus Marslivia



I just read over on Western Rifle Shooters that Remus Marsilvia, creator and author of the Woodpile Report, passed away on July 8th. For many years he was putting out a new post every Tuesday, filled with wit, wisdom and a great depth of understanding. A former Naval officer, he mustered out just ahead of the Cuban Missile Crisis. He recently lost his second wife, but was planning on extensive travel in the future, and had just finished an SUV for that purpose. He was diagnosed right after his June 9th post, his last. We’d been wondering about him since that time.

Prayers your way, sir. And Godspeed.

Tom S.

I'll miss my Tuesday Morning enlightenment and the wisdom that the man behind Remus gave to so many.

He will be sadly missed, but fondly remembered as the wit and wisdom he shared will be passed on and used by so many of us.

Rest in peace, Remus and thank you for your efforts and work to help others learn the lessons of life.

He was impressive with style, class, insight and intelligence. We are all better off for his work and we are diminished for his passing. His are tough shoes to fill.

I will truly miss his insightful postings.

I had checked his site just two days ago, just to check and see if he had any new offerings.

Often, when one loses their true soul mate in this life, they will pass as well. Usually within six months. I would say, this man had a deep love for his wife, who had passed just a few months ago.

Still no update at the site since 9 June. Guess no one has the keys.

Many readers in comments and email are concerned about the lack of updates at the Woodpile Report. I am concerned as well.
I’ve written Remus a couple of times over the last week or two but have, to date, received no response.
I’ve left a query comment over at the new Western Rifle Shooters site but haven’t heard from them to date.
UPDATE 2: FROM THE COMMENTS BY woodpilereport.comx
no_email@noemail.com

In an effort to dispel all the wild rumors I offer this advance notice of a forthcoming announcement at woodpilereport.com.
It is taking some time to get to as there are more important things for us to do in the immediate but it will be posted soon.

——————–

The Woodpile Report will no longer be updated.

His family regrets to announce that Ol’ Remus recently met his demise.
In accordance with his desire for anonymity as author of The Woodpile Report his identity as well as details about his life will not be provided.
An archive here {at woodpilereport.com} of available past issues is pending.
Stay away from crowds.

H/T to all for the kind comments in your blogs, pages and comments.

——————-

While his family, and yes, I am family, close enough to him that I have known him every single day I have been alive – until he died of course, wishes ‘friend of wife” had not posted her comments anywhere containing details of his death, which are true – but that’s all ya get for real info, the fact is that Ol’ Remus has indeed died.

While rumors will persist without a link to an obituary or the divulging of other revealing information concerning who Remus was it is from the respect of his wishes to remain anonymous that we, his family, act in this manner.

There are very few on the internet who know who Remus was but rest assured he was greater in real life than his writings showed him to be.

This post may be freely shared of course, and I have no doubt it will be – an important take from this is the H/T thanks offered to all, not just readers here, but everywhere.

Thank you Mr. Van der Leun for americandigest.org
It is my honor to post this message here originally.

Lastly – No, I am not posting from Stockholm, Sweden as the logged IP address will show.
