In memory of DUer eggbeater . . .
This post was made by him about one month before his death. It inspired hope in me then, and will be what I remember of Ed.
=======================


I can assume that by the addition of the star next to my name, some very generous person here has made a donation in my behalf.

thank you very much.

It gives me so much pleasure to have this done that I can not begin to tell you.

Maybe this is what I love about the democrats.

when we see a need, we open our hearts and our wallets.

when a republican sees a need, he opens the back door and tries to escape before he can be called on to help.

We WILL get our country back, and we WILL once again be known as a caring giving country that is concerned with the well being of all living creatures.

It gives me so much strength knowing that all is not lost in this country that has been on the wrong road for this last 6 years.

May God bless you in all you do, and may he bless all those that come in contact with you.

this forum is filled with those that should be the poster child for what this great country was founded on, acted on, and will one day be again.

23. That made me cry. Thank you for posting this Bluebear.
DU lost a very good soul in eggbeater. But as always, when we lose one of our own, our promise to keep up the fight, for them, their loved ones and for ourselves, will go on. And eggbeater will be smiling down on us from his Lord's heaven.

29. My sympathy to his family.
His post was very inspiring. I'm sorry he had to die before he could leave a longer legacy at DU. I'm sure it would have been wonderful.
