I would like to have known this guy.

1. Sounds like someone many of us would have admired...

[Heidi]

4. The obit was sent to me

by a friend who knew him, and I thought it was one of the most heart-felt and honest obituaries I'd ever read. :hi:

[Droopy]

2. A fellow artist and liberal

I think I would have liked him as well. That's probably the most political obituary I've seen.

[Heidi]

5. It _had_ to be a paid obit . . .

no mainstream American newspaper would let a liberal's family get away with that kind of politickin' for free.

How ya doin', Droopy? :hi:

[Droopy]

6. I'm doing fine

I've been hanging out in the health and fitness groups a lot lately. I've found some good support there for my new lifestyle. I'm going to check them one more time tonight and then go to bed. Have a good one and happy posting. :)

[Heidi]

7. Thanks, Droopy.

If you have any extra good vibes left, ya might consider sending some to DUer huskerlaw, who has an important job interview on the west coast in the next few days! :hi:

3. May you rest in peace, brother. We continue the struggle in your name

and all those who oppose the "right winged Americans" who caused you such pain.

[Heidi]

8. Right on.

Makes me a little sad to think of the folks, like Cory, who've died while their country was under seige. :hi:

9. Poor bastard. RIP, dude.

and for the family... the plural of medium is media... nit picked.

[enigmatic]

10. What a guy

Where did you find that, Heidi?

[Heidi]

12. The obit was sent to me

by a friend who apparently knew him or of him, and I asked his permission before posting it. Just to confirm that this was a real person, I googled Cory's full name. I love hearing about people like him.

:hug:

11. I would have liked to have known him too

he was obviously a very remarkable individual. We had quite a few things in common.

[Heidi]

13. Thanks for saying that, Spock_is_Skeptical.

I think Cory was _exactly_ the kind of guy the current administration loathes, but he impresses me as one of the truly good guys. :hi:
