RIP.

U.S. Representative Charlie Norwood Succumbs To Cancer

POSTED: 1:58 pm EST February 13, 2007
UPDATED: 2:04 pm EST February 13, 2007

U.S. Rep. Charlie Norwood, 65, passed away this morning at his Augusta home following an extensive battle with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and non-small cell lung cancer.

Norwood received a single lung transplant in 2004 as treatment for IPF, and developed non-small cell lung cancer in 2005.

Norwood represented the Augusta-to-Athens 10th congressional district since 1995, and was re-elected in November 2006 by a landslide margin.

Funeral arrangements are being handled by Thomas Poteet and Son Funeral Directors in Martinez. A schedule of public services will be announced by the 10th Congressional District office as soon as details are finalized.

Glad to see you waited until the body was cold before you asked that question.

He left DC only a few days ago: Quick and sad end.

We may lose other very old (mostly democratic) congresscritters and Senators: look for the difference in how the MSM treats this death (repub in a strong repub district with a repub state governor...) compared to the tender treatment and loving recuperation they so desperately wanted for their ill democratic Senator ...

Now is the time for mourning, not Politics.

I don't know. Was he actually still in Congress? Seems odd that if was sick that he would have ran last election. (Then again, democrats ran Mel Carnahan)
