It
is with broken hearts that Hallie, Hunter, Ashley, Jill and I announce
the passing of our husband, brother and son, Beau, after he battled
brain cancer with the same integrity, courage and
strength he demonstrated every day of his life.
The
entire Biden family is saddened beyond words. We know that Beau’s
spirit will live on in all of us—especially through his brave wife,
Hallie, and two remarkable children, Natalie and Hunter.
Beau's
life was defined by service to others. As a young lawyer, he worked to
establish the rule of law in war-torn Kosovo. A major in the Delaware
National Guard, he was an Iraq War veteran
and was awarded the Bronze Star. As Delaware’s Attorney General, he
fought for the powerless and made it his mission to protect children
from abuse.
More
than his professional accomplishments, Beau measured himself as a
husband, father, son and brother. His absolute honor made him a role
model for our family. Beau embodied my father's saying
that a parent knows success when his child turns out better than he
did.
In the words of the Biden family: Beau Biden was, quite simply, the finest man any of us have ever known.
From The G-Man offers its condolences to Vice President Biden, the Biden family, and the friends and colleagues of Beau Biden. May he forever rest in peace.
