It is with extreme sadness that I announce news, brought to us by DePat’s loving and faithful friend, For God & Country (FG&C).
Rather than simply approving FG&C’s comment, I decided to make it a full post. I will add my own comments afterward.
Dear Qtree,
I profoundly regret and sorrowfully bring you the sad news of our dear friend Susie “Depat” Sampson’s unexpected and sudden passing.
Susie was a fierce, albeit petite, Gen X MAGA warrior and patriot who dearly loved our American Republic. Highly intelligent, insightful, articulate, loyal, kind, and sweet are just a few of the accurate adjectives which describe this truly amazing, deeply committed and Christ-focused Christian lady.
A dedicated animal lover and dog owner, she was an alto singer by profession, performing her craft in the theatre as well as in various parish churches in the St. Louis area. She was also a blogger, self-published author, and unapologetic conservative.
7-8 weeks ago Susie attended a choir rehearsal, during which she had stood right next to a fellow choir member who she learned afterwards had been Covid vax-boosted for the 4th time that day. Perhaps she mentioned at some point in these pages that in the time since that night she believed she had contracted “long Covid”, experiencing physical weakness, insomnia, a persistent cough, and low appetite. She believed she had inhaled “spike proteins” shedding from the woman she stood next to that night at rehearsal, stating that had she known the woman had been so recently vaxxed she would never have gotten so close to her.
Recently, she had stated she was feeling better, the cough all but gone, and in the past week felt she had gotten over the insomnia hump and was getting good rest. I was optimistic. However, on Monday AM….inauguration day….her brother discovered her in her bedroom, unresponsive, after becoming concerned he had not heard her moving about and she had not come downstairs. Paramedics were subsequently unable to resuscitate her, and it is currently believed she suffered a heart attack and passed away in her sleep. After many attempts to reach her (we texted daily), her brother called me this afternoon with the news. I knew you would want to know as well.
I am aware of how this news will hit the Qtree community, and how loved and appreciated she was here. She loved being a part of this group as much as she loved the MAGA movement and President Trump. In particular, she was a longtime fan and admirer of the impossibly great “Gail Combs”, of whom we often laughed over the thought she must be a “deep MAGA” AI. 
It was through this very forum that I got to know her, and in the years after leaving here grew close with her, and I visited her in St. Louis many times. On her behalf, with complete confidence she would approve of this message below, let me say a few words for her to each of you…
My dear friends and fellow Qtree patriots,
We did it! Going all the way back these now many years to the time when most (if not all) of us originally came together at Conservative Treehouse, and later here at Qtree after Wolf created this space for those of us daring to believe in Q-Anon and subsequently being exiled from CTH for doing so, we have stood the test of time and proved resolute and firm with one another in our belief in God, his providence, and our beloved Republic.
We, along with tens of millions of our fellow patriots, and God’s blessings, have successfully taken on the almost impossible power and reach of the corrupt and evil globalist deep state, and we have once again elected our lion, President Donald J Trump to a historic and almost unprecedented non-concurrent term. I am confident that Trump 2.0 will prove as day is to night in comparison to his first term!
It has been the honor of a lifetime to share in this struggle with all of you; to pass through the many trials, uncertainties, set-backs, and victories together. We never gave up, never gave in, and never wavered. We ran the good race! It has been an incredible journey which we have chronicled together on these pages over all these many years.
I know that each of you will continue the good and holy fight, and I will be watching and praying for you, your individual and collective success, and the reestablishment of our Republic as the founder’s envisioned and ordained by God.
Do not be afraid, and never fear. Our sovereign Lord and Almighty God is firmly in control, and all is unfolding according to his design!
This is not “good-bye”, this is only a “see you later!”, and while parting is sorrowful, the joy of our reunion in the presence of our mighty and loving King will so overwhelm the sadness as to render it entirely moot and inconsequential.
I love you all, carry each of you in my heart, and reluctantly take my leave from you with this…
“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.”
See you on the other side!
Susie
I will begin by thanking For God & Country for this desperately needed but sad news, as well as for his wonderful message from DePat, which I will admit made me cry.
As I know for certain that DePat’s final wish for me would be to remove FG&C from moderation, I will do that immediately after publishing this. If we cannot all lay down our swords in DePat’s honor, then we have no business being here.
I will add more information about DePat’s last comments and posts in the comments.
Thank you ALL for being good friends of Susie, and for your concern as she battled recent health issues, and then as she vanished from the site.
To say DePat will be greatly missed is an almost appalling understatement. She was, if not the heart and soul of this site, at least a huge portion of it. Her influence on me was as profound as any teacher I ever had – and I had some great ones.
There will be a time that I will fully discuss my scientific opinion about what happened to Susie. I may say some things now, but I will definitely say more later. There are things that MUST be said.
Finally, let me add this. Susie was one of the greatest defenders of the Catholic Church that I have ever known. While I do not consider myself to be Catholic, she made me a great ally of “The Church” – as she called it. She remains, in my opinion, one of the greatest servants of The Lord that I have ever had the honor of knowing.
In God I trust – that Susie is now exactly where God wants her, and where she wants to be.
¡Vaya con Dios, amiga!
