This is a very, ery good passage to think about. Not for spiritual babies, but for those who are beginning to understand someting of the mind of God. Eccl. 7:1; 12:13-14

Have you read all the comments on this thread? As of 7:50 pdt a whole bunch of hate directed at a family who just lost a son, husband and father. A man who served his country and died very young. Not sure what purpose it serves to spit out vile words for the passing of a man just because we disagree with his political views or the political views of his father. But a lot of Freepers apparently feel it is ok to write hateful comments about the passing of an American veteran.

I don’t think I heard he was sick or else it slipped my mind, was this known? RIP.

Terrible for the poor guy to lose another child, he lost a young daughter and his first wife in a car wreck and I think it made him crawl into a bottle and almost quit politics.

Didn’t know he was battling brain cancer.

Same here. It is a tragedy any time a parent buries a child. Condolences to the Biden family. RIP Beau Biden.

Yeah, it was known. He’d been in and out of the hospital in recent years, but expected he’d beat it. He was planning to run for DE Governor next year.

That’s very sad. No one should have to bury a child. My sincere condolences to the Biden family.

Now would be the time for Joe Biden to throw his hat into the Presidential ring...He would go for the Sympathy vote..and he would get it from the crazy Liberals..

so Joe...they are waiting...No way can Granny Benghazi bad mouth you or even old Bernie the Commie...as for the guitar playing hippie, he will just coast along.

This is not to show any disrespect to Beau Biden and the loss of his life so young...that is very sad, and I offered my sympathy in a previous post...

Just thought this is something Joe will use, as he did his first wife and young daughter's death, He has certainly known tradgery in his life time..that is for sure/

Wishes for peace to the Biden clan.
Hurts to see a parent lose a child, no matter the age.
Politics are second.
