May God comfort your family as we all pray for your peaceful journey. You have lived a life devoted to your people and you have taught many that freedom is never free and the cost for when we do not speak for it. My grandparents escaped the Nazis and your strength was beyond measure. God bless you sir and I mourn the loss of a true hero.
