Thanks for this article.
I'm uncertain of whether I will attend a family & friends & public funeral or memorial service for Voyageur. But what would people think about a Colorado Pols Meetup focused on Voyageur as the site's long-active curmudgeon at a convenient drinking establishment a couple of hours after the services?
I'm in, JiD. I always enjoy the Meetups. Holler if you need a hand arranging it.
Definitely would come to a Denver- area Pols meetup. I could raise a glass to Voyageur's memory. Or perhaps we could do a virtual meetup to include some of our Western slope compadres?
If I can make it, count me in.
Happy trails and fare thee well. spaceman said it very well when the news first came to light: didn't always agree with V, but I read just about everything he wrote here.
RIP Voyageur. I hope that you are enjoying a fantastic voyage, now.
Aw. Rest in peace Voyageur! And thanks, Misty, for the note and notice.
Farewell, Voyageur, and thank you for so eloquently keeping the rural perspective alive and that we are not in any way, shape or form drooling hayseed Boebert fans.

I’m attending the National Farmers Union convention this week and they’ve shared a few historical clips re: Farm Bill history, etc. I kept thinking how much I wanted to share a few of these tidbits with V. I enjoyed our conversations related to eastern plains/Ogallala Aquifer in particular. He was the only other polster here that could identify Venango, NE on map!
I remember discussing the simple joy of eating Olathe sweet corn with him one time (even though that's grown in the Western slope). He loved agriculture, farm life, and the Eastern Plains. All of the good things. Plus, he could write like ten men. Rest in peace Voyageur…
Sorry for your loss everyone.
Godspeed, my friend.
We miss your intelligent insights.

I just saw this. May his memory be a blessing.
Real journalism is an honorable calling. Only the good die young.
When I was a student at CU Boulder in the '60's I was certainly aware that Bob was editor of The Colorado Daily. Ditto to what ParkHill said. Those of us who still carry that activism of the '60's with us are struggling with so many losses in the world of journalism, particularly robust local print journalism. Much harder to hold white collar criminals accountable.
I haven't been active on Pols for a while, but fondly remember Bob's welcome contribution to the political forum Pols allows. Anyone who is active in that contributes to the freedom of speech and opinion that is absolutely essential to a functioning democracy. Farewell Voyager, mission accomplished.
