Greetings all,
We are the sons of Popgun, affectionately known as Butch to most here in the real world. It is with much sadness we must share with you his sudden passing on the morning of Tuesday, July 31st 2012.
The past few weeks have been difficult as anyone would understand. In dealing with our loss we did not want to forget about all those whom dad touched with his writing, both in life and through his blogs.
Several bloggers in particular were very influential on him. We don’t know how many posts were forwarded to us with the comment, “They said it better than I could.” Special thanks to you Bayou Renaissance Man, View From the Porch, John Lott, and Lawdog.
We were always very proud of him for freely sharing his love of life and country with us (and anyone else within earshot). We wanted to let you know how much he appreciated his readers. We would love to know of any notable posts or conversations with Dad that left an impression on you. Please share in the comments section and we will publish them as we can.
Again, thanks so much for being a part of Popgun’s world. We lost a good one.
Warm Regards,
The Sons of Gun
Popgun's World 
God bless, Popgun. You will be missed.
May God touch and heal you, who are left behind.
This may be too early, but I mean no disrespect. Will you Sons of Gun continue the blog?
Reading Popgun in 2008 took the fear I had away from my cataract surgery… and allways believe he read my mind as his comments on subjects were my view also. …he is missed David
