Well said. I've lost family to brain cancer. I don't care what your political leanings are, no one deserves this.

I did not respect him as a politician, but he has certainly earned my respect as a soldier.
I, too, have watched the horrifying effects of brain cancer on others. It is one of the worst ways to live and die. No one should have to suffer such a disease.
Rest in peace soldier. Your efforts here are complete.
It is always sad and tragic when someone has to bury their child, for whatever reason. I send my condolences to the Biden family.
That said, I don't believe I've ever heard of Beau Biden before. My first thought when I saw this thread title was that the OP was confused and meant the president's dog... I'm pretty sure his name is Beau too.
He gave up a chance to run for Senate so that he could convict a pedo. Rest in Piece.

When I first heard the news this weekend, I was thinking of the VP's OTHER son, the good-for-nothing druggie. Seems like Beau had his head screwed on straight despite his patrilineal heritage. Either way, it's sad when a parent has to bury a child and brain cancer is a horrible way to go.
There is no "good" way to lose a family member. Situations such as this are outside of politics. RIP.
