I met William Colvard at the Atlanta MAGA meetup back in 2017. Bill was a Trump supporter and a Christian conservative. He was also my friend.

Over the years Bill and I would talk regularly by phone and DM. When I didn’t hear from him for a week or so I tried to find out what the situation was.

I am sad to report that he passed away May 12, 2020.

Bill was a very private guy so people should not be stunned that his passing came as a surprise.

I respected his privacy and his confidences, as he did mine. He was that kind of man – quiet and decent.

Suffice it to say, he was one of those people that reminded me that some people can be good and I will miss him terribly. What better way to remember him than with a passage from the New Testament:

So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; and it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.

It is with much sadness I can report that Jimmy Surdo has passed away.

Jimmy was a fixture at Westside Range, as well as in the gun community in New York City’s five boroughs.

Jimmy was the force behind the Chelsea Gun Club as well as a resource and advocate for lawful gun ownership in the City.

During the course of his life he wore many hats. From Law Enforcement to civilian gun advocate to family man. But the one hat I shall always remember was the one of “friend”.

My condolences to the family that he leaves behind.
