I was saddened to see the news this morning, especially following so close after Eunice Kennedy Shriver's death. It truly seems like the end of an era. (I remember watching Bobby Kennedy's funeral on TV.)

Whether one agreed with his politics or not (sometimes I did, sometimes I didn't), I don't see how it can be denied that he spent his life doing his best to serve his country and its people -- especially those who so often had little voice among the more powerful.

Requiem aeternam.
