Empress Jane-it was breast cancer
Run Lola Run--Sorry no typo-cancer is a *****! I lost my wife to lung cancer last year so I know.

I was saddened to hear she had passed from cancer. She had an eye for the
rank and file soldier which will be hard to replace.
The new VA Hospital is going to be a tough place to negoiate a soldiers benefits, especially healthcare.
they are offering only two years of healthcare after discharge from Iraq.
These are the kinds of things we are going to miss her honor, Rep. Jo Ann
Davis. May she rest in peace.
Thank you for reminding us. We all need to send a prayer and a big thanks for her devotion to duty.

I agree completely. While I am not from that area of the country and was not familiar with Ms. Davis, it is clear from your description that she stood for some very good values. It is always a sad day when our country loses people such as Rep. Davis.

Yes, it is. Definitely a sad day for Virginia. Not to mention it's breast cancer awareness month.
Hmm, I hope that "bit#h cancer" is just a typo.

I'm sorry, what kind of cancer did she succumb to?
