This post will be updated as the day goes on and new tributes come in.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Mike Vanderboegh, RIP. He lived well and passionately. A grand Outlaw. We owe him much.<\/p>\n

So far, I have only a mainstream media account<\/a> with the usual prejudices. But I’m sure many, many tributes will be pouring in from the gun and freedomista communities soon and I’ll post some of them here.<\/p>\n

David Codrea who, as always, is the first to have word about his friend Mike has already posted<\/a> and promises more information later today.<\/p>\n

UPDATES:<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Carl-Bear Bussjaeger wrote a moving tribute to Mike<\/a> for The Zelman Partisans.<\/p>\n

Per David Codrea again<\/a>: Sipsey Street has made a statement, but so far only via FB. Still awaiting a statement on the Sipsey Street blog<\/a>. (Here’s the announcement on the Sipsey Street blog<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Honoring the family’s request, here’s the Nyberg flag<\/a> marked with a mourning band for Mike:<\/p>\n

\"nyberg-iii-flag\" <\/p>\n

In his Ammoland column, David writes a longer tribute<\/a> to Mike. (And the Oath Keepers version<\/a> of the same column with an afterword from Stewart Rhodes.)<\/p>\n

Services<\/a> will be on Saturday.<\/p>\n

And Mark Call features Mike<\/a>, largely in Mike’s own words, at the beginning of his Thursday, August 11 show.<\/p>\n

Even Sebastian of “Shall Not Be Questioned” (who had mega disagreements with Mike), has an appreciation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

From the family: the time and place of the funeral<\/a> — which is open to the public, should you happen to be in the area.<\/p>\n

Finally, 8\/15\/16: Mike’s son Matt sums up notable tributes<\/a>, including some “anti-tributes” by Mike’s opponents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
