Senator Edward Kennedy Loses Battle to Brain Cancer

  Senator Edward Kennedy passed away at age 77 from brain cancer. He had been battling the tumor since May 2008. Although you may not have shared his political views, I think it is important to give some well wishes to anyone who loses a loved one to a tragic event or disease.

    This man dedicated his life to fighting battles for all of us, particularly civil rights, helping bring peace in Northern Ireland and in healthcare reform…….but poignantly he lost his life to a disease that robs so many and still needs major funding to find a cure.

    Great comment, the news often focuses on the tragedy and not the positive things the person did while they were alive.
