lawrocket 3 #26 September 17, 2009 Stitch: You're a great guy and I can empathize with what you are feeling. But right now facts are getting us nowhere. We are at the point now where we must look at all possibilites and rule them out in order to find him. This means speculating on where he may be and what may have happened. And even speculating about why. We've gotta rule it all out. And it sucks. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisamariewillbe 1 #32 September 18, 2009 Yup we came here to bring him home, we found him and tomorrow Ill start the planning of the memorial which will be here in Delta sunday around sunset. His ash dives (yes its LeRoy he gave me a list of 7 places , fucking diva) will take place sometime later. Us here in Delta tonight are a bit defeated and hurt and sad but we did what we came to do and for those of you who supported the SAR , thank you we are grateful and for those of you who posted shit while he hung on a ledge ...Fuck you.Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisamariewillbe 1 #34 September 18, 2009 All the speculation was shit, but it did give us hope that he was alive. Things changed hourly. Now he lay waiting for a basket and a heli and then they can examine his gear and hopefully something can be learned to prevent whatever it is happened.Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meh not about me, most the people I know that have any real good shit to say about me already went in. Les with SAR here will always remain a part of my family, this man went above and beyond his duty and he sat outside with us tonight for hours, hugs , words of encouragement and plenty of tears.

freeatlast 0 #39 September 18, 2009 I'm really sorry to hear that it has ended this way, forget the haters - they are just bitter and twisted individuals ... I am pleased that he has been found and it is nice to see that the many individuals that make up the BASE community went above and beyond to bring him back to his family ... That is what makes BASE different ... They say a man is judged by the standard of his friends ... Leroy was a giant ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nerdgirl 0 #42 September 18, 2009 Been checking on this thread while OCONUS. It’s been one of those times when I so wanted there to be a happy ending. Lisa Marie – thank you for being such a wonderful friend. Thank you for keeping those who cared about LeRoy informed in a respectful way. Condolences to his family and close friends.

We are waiting for the body to be brought in, then Stitch and the coroner will go over the gear before its taken off his body. That way maybe the members in the base community could use the information to determine what his final moments are. I do know that it was him and he did jump everything else will take time.Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
