[Mr_Tracys_Corner] Dave Rietz of www.dorway.com has died

 

 

Forwarding a letter from Betty Martini

Judith:

 

Dave Rietz, webmaster of www.dorway.com has passed away (aspartame): A moment

of silence and prayer for a great man and humanitarian

 

I find it very difficult to write this note, with eyes full of tears. I

met Dave many years ago when he was on the Internet searching for the cause

of his suffering. He found the FDA report of 92 symptoms on aspartame and

realized this was what was killing him. He was suffering from such severe

joint pain that he had actually built a room on to his home to house a

Jacuzzi because he said it was so painful to walk, it was easier to stay in

water. Off aspartame all joint pain disappeared as did many of his other

problems.

 

But Dave had been diagnosed with prostate cancer and he knew it was from

aspartame. Even Dr. George Schwartz had written a paper in Western Journal

about it. But back then, other than the cancer, all the main symptoms he

suffered from disappeared when he abstained from aspartame. He said to me:

" I'm setting up www.dorway.com - DORway to Discovery, to give back to the

Internet what the Internet gave back to me - my life. " DORway has always

housed the Mission Possible records. Even though I told him, I doubt he

ever really realized just how many thousands of lives were saved by his

efforts.

 

Some years ago Robert Cohen had an exhibit here in Atlanta, a conference on

emerging diseases, partially sponsored by the CDC. The day before the

global press met so I decided to join them and give out information. I was

shocked that so many press even from other countries all said they were

already knowledgeable of DORway and checked it often. The same thing

happened when I attended Cable l998, (the movers and shakers) here in

Atlanta, press from everywhere said they always checked out DORway to keep

up with what was going on with aspartame. While representatives of even

CNN and Headline News made comments about checking www.dorway.com they

didn't publish, but they knew the truth about aspartame, and forwarded the

information to their friends.

 

Dave Rietz " lived " to save lives from aspartame. He was always so happy

when hits were going wild because he knew more and more people were finding

out, and getting off the toxin. When I returned from lecturing in England

he said " What happened on the 8th? " I answered, " Felicity and I blitzed

England " . Hits were wild. Likewise, when my mother-in-law died a couple

of years ago he asked " What happened on the 18th, hits are

unbelievable? " I explained that Lil had died and she was such a fine

woman, I wanted to do some good in her name. So I saturated the hospitals

and medical buildings with flyers, knowing it would save a lot of

lives. Maybe we can likewise do something in Dave's name.

 

Dave was one of the kindest men I've ever known. He worked without

stopping for years helping to saturate the globe with education to save the

consumer public from suffering what he had suffered. He also helped

Robert Cohen in the www.notmilk.com movement. He used every dollar he had

in the anti-aspartame movement. He told me only about a month ago how low

he had gotten in funds.

 

He kept thinking he could hang on but every time I tried to call him lately

I only got a recording. I couldn't imagine losing him but I felt the worst

was coming.

 

We know we'll see him again someday, for it says in Acts 24:15 ..... " there

is going to be a resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous " . Dave

will come back young again, free of disease and suffering, to a world free

of the wicked who brought this plague upon us,

and free of the poison that in the end took his life. We pray to Almighty

Jehovah God that he will bless and sustain his family and keep Dave in his

memory and Book of LIfe.

 

I couldn't say it better than Robert Cohen: " The Internet health monuments

that Dave crafted will live on forever. " He did exactly what he said, he

gave back to the Internet, but a million times over. Even his last email

to me was to help a man with lupus. And if you're a victim reading this

whose life was saved by www.dorway.com be sure to drop a note of sympathy

to his dear and loving wife, Isabel Rietz and tell her so. (122 Foxborough

Road, Goose Creek, SC 29445. Right now there may be many people around her

but then there will be a void for he was her everything for 43 long years.

 

Goodbye my friend. You do not die when you live in the hearts of those you

leave behind.
