I’ve just learned that we’ve lost another “Happy Warrior”. Tim Kerlin, known to his friends and Blog Talk Radio show listeners as “Loki”, passed away yesterday (Saturday, Dec. 21). Mark Harvey (aka; “Snooper”) has the details at his website:

I met Tim in person when I traveled on the Tea Party Express National Tour in the Spring of 2010. Tim and his wife Karen came out to our rally on a cold, windy, and raw day in Grand Rapids, MI. I was struck by their warmth and friendliness. It was great getting to meet Tim (the man behind the mic) face-to-face and share our views on the issues as we sat bundled up against the chill and watched the rally together. Both Tim and Karen couldn’t have been nicer or more excited that we all got a chance to meet in person. I felt the same way.

Tim hosted “Founding Truth of the US Constitution” on Blog Talk Radio and was considered by those who knew him to be a learned Constitutional scholar. He loved sharing his knowledge about the Constitution and our founding fathers, and was a natural teacher.

The conservative world is a little darker — and sadder — today because of the loss of “Loki”. My heartfelt sympathy is extended to his wife Karen and their family. It’s never easy losing a loved one, especially at this time of year. God bless Tim “Loki” Kerlin. He was a good man, and a stalwart patriot. Rest in peace, fellow patriot.
