Australia just lost two great men this last week - Jim Stefanovski, aka Jim Sovereign (also aka Hunterman) or just Jimmy to his friends, and Ted Beare, or Teddy. Jimmy's (see below) funeral was yesterday, and we also lost Teddy, or Ted Beare, who's funeral I am going to today - both Aussie patriots in the true sense of the word, both principled to a fault, and both men who truly cared for other human beings, extending a hand, an ear or dollars, depending on the need. Ted's funeral is later today. May you find that which their Soul seeks for you, Zen ----- Forwarded message from Zenaan Harkness <zen@freedbms.net> ----- From: Zenaan Harkness <zen@freedbms.net> Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2018 21:22:02 +1000 Subject: Jimmy Stefanovski aka "Jim Sovereign", passed away Dear freedom seekers all, many of you knew Jimmy personally, and to many he gave extensive help - sometimes online, sometimes on the phone, and many times in person. I had the pleasure of meeting Jimmy on a few occasions, and the greater pleasure of speaking with him many times on the phone, to both be entertained with his personal stories of dressing down one or another police officer or magistrate (always on a matter of absolute principle of course), and also his challenges (on occasion) to me personally, which he always delivered with a firm clarity, heartfelt personal belief and principles, and always that gentle grace which was also always present in his gentle and easy tone (a refreshing counterpart to my own for example). Jim was known to many as Jim Sovereign, a most appropriate alias for his regular email bulletins and online jousts which we have all so appreciated, and also as Jim Hunter or "Hunterman". A proud and active member of UPMART, and a true Australian patriot, Jim is one of those rare Souls who carried his burdens in dignity, always speaking strongly his principles and his opposition to all corruption and evil. He had Malcolm's back on many an occasion, and always sought to hear both sides of personal stories, bringing a balance and compassion to his public dialogue. Jimmy, you keep that genuine Aussie spirit alive - a true brother and a true "digger" - always reminding that we demand of authority to respect "our right to have a say, in those laws which we are called upon to obey", as our forefathers spoke so succinctly and shed their blood for at the Eureka Stockade. Mate, you've stood us all so proud! Jimmy, you will be dearly missed, you are a shining light to many of us, and you were a rock in this world to whom we sought on occasion your gentle and understanding ear, and your empathy for the difficulties we invariably encounter on this life's path. Thank you. Your passing from this world is a great loss to the freedom movement, and to Australia generally, as most of us well know. Jim's funeral was today, and many a tear was shed. To Jim, may you find that which your Soul seeks for you. P.S.: I do not know Jimmy's full email list, so please forward this as you feel is appropriate. ----- End forwarded message -----
