A TV anchor at a Grand Rapids (Michigan, I presume) station has posted a powerful piece on his blog today about the death of his father. Well worth reading.

That was powerful. My father died of cancer after a relatively brief battle. I so admire the ability of this man, and you, Bob, to be able to write it down. Such a wonderful gift.
