He was a great man who suffered much! We will probably not see another like him for quite a while! May his family have blessings and peace!

He was a very courageous soul, imagine 27 yrs. in prison, and I am sure not like a country-club setting, as American ones are! And then to not have a negative mindset after that! He lived to truly make a difference. Funny to now watch the celebs comment, and the politicians to ride the wave for their own purposes.

Interesting isn't it, how people are "so wonderful" AFTER they die! :(

Yeah, I remember once in college, having to write our own obituary, an exercise in reflection on our legacy.

I tried that once, myself. It's more difficult than you think.

I was and then I felt obligated to erase it. Too many people know the real me. LOL!!
