    Albert D Schroeder died yesterday (8th March) at 10.30 EST. He was 94.

    No need to book a holiday this summer, Barmeygeddon is just around the corner...

    Wow.

    Doesn't that leave like 3 persons on the GB that conceivably could have been "anointed" before 1935 (Barr, Barber, and Sydlik)? 4, if you count Jaracz, who was 10 years old in 1935 - a wee bit young for a "special calling" in my book, but then, you sometimes see 6 or 7 year olds getting baptized at assemblies these days.

    That "1935" date is getting to be a bigger and bigger thorn, especially as the count of "anointed" has hovered around 8500 for 20 years now. It will be interesting to see how many partake this year.

    Well, Nina - at least you and I both had something at least decent to say about this man yesterday.

    Sorry to see anybody go - they are all just humans even with all their mistakes.

    Did you see the PM or did I mess it up somehow?

    Abaddon,

    Do you happen to know if he has been sick or the cause of death?

    When somebody dies at the age of 94 I usually say - Wow what a long a useful life - but in his case - what a waste

    About time! And I mean that in the nicest way. I'm looking forward to seeing all the old anointed dead. It'll make a mess of their silly doctrines and prophecies.

    On a sad note, this man wasted his life.

    Wow! I wonder if he was he twinkled in the wink of an eye?

    I doubt it, but he probably tinkled in his bed before he went.

    I wondered about cause of death because, although 94, I hadn't seen anything reported that he was in bad health. Just curious if it was a sudden death.
