I was watching TV at 1:20 am and when the ABC special report flipped on I braced for the next major news event for the summer. This death was not as surprising but he has been absent from the news recently.

I think everyone can agree this is the end of an era.

Rest in peace, Teddy.

May he RIP. Whether you agreed with his politics or not, the man is a legend and did many good things for the United States. He definitely has a place in history.

How many of his siblings are still with us? I think there's just 1 left, Jean? Is that right?

So tragic.
