“No bended knee for me” – the Final Chapter

Robert Beecher provided a written statement to me, shortly after his arrest. He concluded that statement with:
“I have sworn my oath and I will uphold it to the end. No bended knee for me.”
He has held to that commitment, through his ordeal with the government’s efforts to suppress a voice for God, Constitution, and Family. He never did bend his knee to the government. He always bent his knee to his God and his Family.
Rest in Peace
Robert M. Beecher
February 5, 1954 – March 12, 2017
Age: 63 years, 1 month, 7 days
His name will, forever, be on the list of true American patriots.

Thank you, Gary, for this memorial to our brother friend, Robert. He would smile and probably be shy about the acknowledgement but would appreciate you bringing his message to other Americans. He suffered greatly for his beliefs but never faltered in pursuing them. He accepted his fate in this situation and did what he could to encourage his fellow prisoners to do the right thing, man up, care about their families and America. His job on earth is done. He was a “stand up” man. God rest his weary soul in freedom and peace.
I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you sharing my uncle’s story. Everything is so perfectly written. Thank you with all of my heart.
Thank you Gary!
Here is the family’s story about Robert Beecher, so that you know more about who he was.

The series was well written and told of his tribulations poignantly. The American Spirit still exists…it hasn’t died out.
