- Greetings, all.
-
- There will, to be sure, be more official announcements
from those much closer to him, but I wanted to share with you that we have
sadly lost yet another compatriot. Former FBI Agent In Charge, Ted L.
Gunderson, transitioned from this world to the next at around 3:30pm on
Sunday, July 31, 2011. Ted had been suffering off and on from cancer for
roughly two and a half years, and he finally succumbed to it after being
on life support for three weeks. He was 82.
-
- Ted leaves behind not just friends and family, but a
legacy of service to humankind, especially his work after the FBI. He
had already established a tremendous amount of respect from others, and
by the time I got to personaly know him, I learned the same things they
had that he was a kind man, respected investigator and courageous whistle-blower.
He has graced my stage as a presenter at CONSPIRACY CON a total of three
times (2002, 2006 & 2009), and he did so professionally, but with a
wonderful sense of humor and warmth.
-
- Ted was, and is, a symbol of that which we should all
strive. Yes, he was an "establishment man" for some time, but
he, like so many of us, began the waking up process and went into action.
The rewards of those efforts can be seen on every written report, tape
and DVD recording of his many findings these past three decades. Unfortunately,
his legacy was challenged near the end of his time on earth by parties
that, it would now seem, have serious integrity issues themselves. Their
actions, however, may end up being a symbolic blessing in disguise. This
last ditch attempt to attack his credibility is a true badge of honor for
a man whose work did, indeed, threaten the livelihoods of those we in the
greater truth community work so hard to expose.
-
- I do not give out honors or plaques at my conference,
as some do. But, if I were to do so (and, perhaps, I should), the first
recipient would be Ted Gunderson, and it would be called "The Patriot
Award."
-
- Here's to you, Ted.
-
- Travel well.
