Today a shining light of reason and caring died. No person could have come closer to being a force of nature than Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Others will do a much better job of writing her eulogy. Those who knew her will be more able to capture her indomitable spirit. Many will testify to the power of her personality. Millions will mourn her passing. She leaves us a much better world than when she arrived.
I can only say, that her death, after a heroic fight against cancer, leaves us all much poorer. With her light gone, the world grows darker.
You’ve done so much for us. We will not forget you. We will not give up the struggle that you fought for us. We will persevere and make the United States and the world a better place for all people.
Rest In Peace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
