Rest In Peace
The three of us were at her side when she took her final breath Tuesday evening. It was a peaceful farewell and she is no longer suffering.

The three of us were at her side when she took her final breath Tuesday evening. It was a peaceful farewell and she is no longer suffering.
About Me
- Name: Intellectual Insurgent
- Location: South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands
I am the person who fits in nowhere and everywhere.
Extremists. Militants.
Religious Fanatics. Terrorists.
Patriot.
And as the picture focused in, you could see the writing on the headstone, and it gave his awards - Purple Heart, Bronze Star - showed that he died in Iraq, gave his date of birth, date of death, he was 20 years old. And then at the very top of the head stone, it didn't have a Christian cross. It didn't have a Star of David. It has a crescent and star of the Islamic faith.
And his name was Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan. And he was an American. He was born in New Jersey. He was fourteen years old at the time of 9/11, and he waited until he could serve his country and he gave his life.

Words can't express what I'm feeling for you as I fight back my tears. I pray that you and your family...
Her body may be buried, but her spirit lives on in a better place.
May you be comforted in your time of sorrow by the good thoughts of the wonderful times you had with her.
It is a beautiful picture.
Gary.
I concur with FAR, it is a beautiful picture. I hope that is how she lives on in your memories.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss... But her ordeal is over.
I wish you peace...

Thanks Katelyn. I call them as I see them and you are one of the brightest bloggers out there. I may not agree with every conclusion you reach in your posts, but your intelligence and reasoning is worthy of considerable respect. You really should be a lawyer when you grow up (sorry to say that since you already seem like a grown up).
Now, you realize we're all waiting for your commentary on Bush's illegal wiretaps.

So sorry to hear of the news. I have been meaning to get a colonscopy since last jan. when I turned 40. I will set up the appointment now.
Dina,
Just a note to say I miss your interaction and hope that things are as well as can be considering the circumstances.
My best wishes to you always.
Gary.
