This is a not a fun post to write. I do not like to be sad, and I am very sad today. Richard Goldwater passed away. He had been ill a long time, but I didn’t expect him to be gone so suddenly.
As you can imagine things are not normal here. There are a lot of tears and sad faces around town and in the halls at school. Folks have been calling from all over just to check on us. I heard from Josie and Sabrina last night. Mr. Goldwater was instrumental in adding them to the Archie Comics family. That’s what Archie Comics is, you know, a family – one that Richard Goldwater helped build and I am glad to be part of.
I know that smiles will return to Riverdale soon… but not today.
Love,
Veronica
I'm sorry your feeling sad, Ron. I am too. Riverdale must not be very happy today...

Ps. HSM/ HMFAN,
does HSM stand for High school musical. I think it does, but I'm not sure. What does HM stand for? Harvest Moon or something?
Just wondering!
Sadness comes and goes I'm very sad that one of its classiest, man has passed way but he's in a better place.

Dear Veronica
Everyone in Riverdale is depressed by his absence. He was a kind and creative man.I too am sorry he is gone.
So Sorry
Aurora
I'm a Catholic. ;)
-Pureheart the Powerful
Religions are so interesting. :)
-Pureheart the Powerful
Thats so cool that you all are christians! I am a christian too!
Awesome Pureheart! ;-D I'm Catholic too!
I'm so sorry for your loss. Mr. Richard Goldwater is a great man. He'll be remember forever. I lost my cousin, Denise W. She's been battling breast cancer. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. All women must see a doctor for a check-up. Mr. Goldwater will be a friend to Archie comics forever.
That's sad.......... I hope you feel better soon!
REGGIE IS A JERK!!!!
I find that it isnt COOL to be all catholic and christians. I for one, am JEWISH. :)
I'm sure that whatever religion he is, it shouldn't matter which, He is in a better place away from hurt and all the pain.
As for me, I'm one of the Jehovah's Witnesses:).
hey riverdale iam so sorry i no how you feel i lost my mawmaw to cancer not even a year ago but when you feel bad think ov the good times well i love yall
your biggest fan

lol pureheart LEAVE THE BEANIE ON THE BED, OR WHEREVER YOU KEEP IT=O
lol!!!
oh and im christian to!!!!
im a baptist,
which when you think of, if you are Catholic, holly, or anything to that effect, even jews, you still all belive in jesus, =D
all those relgions AlMOST mean the same thing, and of course there is more, they are all classified as "christian"
=D
-shea
peace and love,
be respectfull =D
-shea
Yeah, I have to leave my Jughead Beanie on my bed. ;) But, I'm taking it off every Friday for my Archie Club. I'm going to wear it whenever I am in my Archie Club area, etc. ;) Wish me luck (For the Archie Club)! :) I have to write a paper to the principle about it... SCARY.
-Pureheart the Powerful
Even our forefather's believed in God. Have you looked in the dollar bills? "In God we trust." He is even mentioned in "The Constitution."
Anyway, let's all not loose our respect to each other. Obviously, we posted we are excited to meet other Christians and Catholics (I know i am) but lets us not disrespect anyone. We should care about each other as human beings. :=D Look at Archie and his friends had mentioned in past blogs that they had attended Church and look, they love us for who we are. That's the example we all should do: Love everyone no matter what religion or faults they have. I'm guessing that's what Mr. Montana and Mr. Goldwater where trying to show us. I think even Author Professor C.S. Lewis in his novels. Look at the generations of Archie stories they have shared with us? Good wholesome stories. So, let's not lose that...this world is already messed up as it is. Let's not join in in it. :=( So please, if it's an issue to you, keep it to yourself. I'm sick of seeing this being an issue.
As one writer and poet's quote "Your free will, your decision, your soul." (By H.D.)
We each have our own free will and THAT I respect. :=D What will you do? THAT is up to YOU.
Hugs to everyone! :=D
ROFL!!! (Rolling on the floor laughing)
When I read peace_and_love's post "REGGIE IS A JERK!!!" it made me laugh! I was reading some of the other posts here until out of the blue, I read up to that part! LOL!!! Thanks peace and love for cheering me up.
he veronica
dont be sad n all will be good ok
luv ya
muawh
bye
Hey all!
I'm back to commenting... haven't for quite a few months!
Anyways,
I'm... either Catholic or Chritian, I'm not sure.
Pretty sure I'm Catholic, but can't remember the difference.
Either way, MAY RICHARD GOLDWATER REST IN PEACE.
We will all see him again someday, though we may not know it.
Thanks all!
Phantomfan
pureheart,
i bet the principle will let you,
and is there alot of people in the club yet?
no one in my grade reads them,
except one of my friends when she is at walmart and waiting for the check outline she reads them, she likes them, loves them also, and thinks there funny, but she doesnt go crazy over them like i do, lol
but wow i remember pureheart you saying some guys at your school making fun of you likeing archie,
hope things cleared up =D
-shea
Oh by the way, if you didnt know, JESUS himself was jewish..
True, true, Coral! ;) I just call him J.C sometimes. :)
-Pureheart the Powerful
The principle is deciding right now. So there are no students in my club yet. Oh... did I really post up a comment saying that two guys made fun of me because I liked Archie? I don't remember that. ;)
-Pureheart the Poweful
Idk how religion got up.. but im catholic=].
Pearlgirl which religion is jehovah witness? Is that where you dont celebrate certain holidays?
Morgie =)
HARRYPOTTERFAN,HSM is high school musical and HM is hannah montana.Oh coral,what have you done? You havent posted in a long time.Yes Jesus was jewish,but I think its cool to be a cristian!But thats my religon. :) ~HSM/HMFAN~
I LOVE BEING A CRISTIAN!Oh Sarah we started the religion thing because Sashi & I talked about being a cristian and that he will be in heaven if he belived. ~HSM/HMFAN~
Yo, listen to Glitter's post. Be nice. And that's all im sayin'.
And Pureheart The powerful don't feel embarassed that you read Archie comics and others tease you. There's a lot of weirdos in this world who think they know it all Pff! Forget them! Let them continue be stuck and sucked into their own stupid world! They chose it, but don't let them embarassin' U of reading what U love--Archie comics! We're with ya! We read Archie comics too and darn proud of it! Thumbs up, baby!
Okay let's talk about something else, something about happy things.
We have had a sad and stressful week, so it's time to talk about happy things.
Have any of you seen any cool movies lately? Last movie I saw was X-men the last stand.
go sashi!!! lol i am a apostolic (christian) myself, i have been since i was born, and right nowme and my family are actually missionarys!!!!
You have your own "Archie Club", Pureheart? That is soo cool! Where?
Hi Veronica,
I am sad for u and I am sorry but I would like u just as much as betty but u where always mean to her.
love,
Ashton Z
Hey yall Im new here My names lucy, Lucy p and I want to be all yalls friend,yall here!I know that he died an all but yall need think bout positive,yall here.Well i want to be everyones friend! Lucy P
Hilda, my Archie Club is at my school. Oh, and K, nobody actually made fun of me because I like Archie and the Gang. ;) Just to let you know. ;) I have been offended many times though, but right now, nobody makes fun of me. :)
-Pureheart the Powerful
oh thats why on the front page it says we miss u richard :(
No, no Sashi and HSM/HMFAN, don't feel bad. I read your comments and like some of you guys I was excited to that we have that in common. Truth is I am so thrilled you guys brought up your comments that you are Christians and Catholics because ....
(here's my confession) seems everwhere else online and where I play online, I don't meet other Christians and Catholics. Unless i don't know they are. They haven't told me. And when I came here, since we all love Archie and the friends,I also got excited to learn that Jughead goes ot church too. I read that in a blog of his. It is so much fun coming here everyday and can't wait to read what Betty, Veronica and the dudes say in their blogs for us.
What bugs is that whenever there is a talk about religion, there is always at least someone who pops in and starts problems. Like one time, this guy I was friends with just turned on me just because I said, "I have to go now. My family and I have to go to church later" and he goes, "Oh, your one of those" and he was rude. For no reason! I had always respected him just like my friends at the time and my friends were non-religious and one was a pagan. We have our own religion and we respected each other. And by doing that (respect) we had so much fun joking around and helping each other out in the game we played. They are not my friends anymore but only because It seems they really didn't care about me as a friend.
thanks again. I just wanted to share my thanks and share my reasons why I was happy with your comments.
Wow! That is so beyond cool!
I'll be your friend Lucy P.!:D
Some kids think it's pretty funny that I still like DBZ. (In KINDERGARTEN it was the "in" thing!) I don't mind, though. I myself think it could've used more action, but I've learned a lot from it and others like it! For instance, did you know that cats have sensitive mouths and can't eat anything hot? Or that Sugar Maple looks an awful lot like Japanese Maple? Or that there is such a thing as ninja dogs? Okay, you get the idea. So, if anyone teases you guys about reading Archie comics, just say that Archie comics are real groovy!
Thank you cinnamen apple for being my new friend and I want all yall to be my bloggy friend.Your new friend,Lucy P
I'll also be your friend, Lucy. :) :) :)
-Pureheart the Powerful
sorry pureheart what i meant to put was that you said on another one of these blog things
(i think the fan art blog)
that someone in your class wasnt making fun of you,

they thoguht you where obcessed with them,
or that its weird,
i forgot exactly how you put it,
but it is on the other blog =D
-shea
PS- the reason why is said that was because, i remebered you saying that, and what made me think of it was when you said about your club, and i just thought of that!

lol, whew i think i need some rest lol
