FYI, I posted this in the "News" section vice the "Religion" section for hopefully obvious reasons.

We don't know how the narrative of our lives will end but we get to choose how to use the interval between now and the moment we meet our Creator face to face
So true. The words of Tony Snow serve as a reminder to all of us to be our very best selves every single day. I loved the way he was a "Happy Warrior". Tony Snow represented conservative values in a way that can make us proud of who is on our team. What a class act.

sigh.....it really stinks that he’s gone. Although I am sure he is much more content where he is now.

Thanks for the ping. I’m confident that Tony is with God this day.
To: markomalley
The measure of this man's life can be found in his character, in his optimism, in his joy and great sense of humor, in his courage, in his passion for what was good and true and right, in his love of God and of family and of neighbor and of country. Worth pondering every day between now and November 3.

Tough to measure Tony. There were few to compare.

It was, rather, we who needed his life to be longer. So true.

Tony shared that conviction of faith. He believed, as St. Paul's Letter to the Romans affirms, that "no one lives for himself" that "no one dies for himself (Romans 14: 7)," that we live and we die for the Lord, that we are his. And that the Lord, above all and alone is the one to whom, we shall give an accounting for our life.*******************
Ah, Tony, but you left us too soon.
