Too damned young, RIP.

[cleanskull]

I hate the "C. Way too young. RIP.

They seemed to have kept this very private, not easy to do for the son of a Vice President and a former politician himself Very sad, a man so young. Joe Biden has had more than his share of family tragedies.
Godspeed.

They really did manage to keep this on the quiet side. Good for them.

RIP

Yes The "C" is a beast.....................................10 years +

From everything I've read he seems like one hell of a guy. Way too young. Prayers to the Biden family.

From someone who lives outside of the USA
he seemed like a great Patriotic American.

His fellow Americans should be proud of him.

Such a terrible form of cancer, those of the brain have always struck me as the most insidious. Politics aside, I can't begin to imagine the pain and grief Joe has had to endue and now starting over again.

The Daily Beast article brings up cell phone use as one cause. There's got to be a link there particularly with heavy users. Even each phone manual itself cautions against use next to the body, suggesting use of the speaker and carrying the phone in relation to proximity of one's person. But then how can one carry their phone without it being close to the body, even belt pouches. Women do have can have an advantage over men in that regard...the purse.

I hate cell phones, but, I do tend to think of my laptop on my crotch all the time.

Very sad for Joe and Beau's wife and children.

I don't know how public figures (like Joe Biden) get thru this kind of grief in the public eye.

[Linnie]

Probably one of the saddest funerals for a political figure I've seen since RFK's 47 years ago...
"Beau is gone, Beau is gone, Beau is gone.."
It seems like everyone's lost family and friends to some kind of cancer at a (relatively) early age, plus this chap apparently had a good reputation.
Found myself sniffling over someone I never met and knew next to nothing about.

[endsleigh03]

It was sad. I didn't watch the whole thing but the parts I did see made me weepy.

Too young, and I feel so sorry for his family, especially his kids.

I just read an article today about accusations by the estranged wife of Joe Bidens son of spending money on hookers and drugs and wondered how many sons Joe Biden has. I had to just check and it's Hunter. http://ussanews.com/News1/2017/03/02...ut-of-control/
