R.I.P. Eunice Shriver
Eunice Shriver, Founder of the Special Olympics, sister of JFK, Bobby and Ted Kennedy, and mother of California's First Lady Maria Shriver, has passed away at age 88.
From President Obama's statement:
[She was]an extraordinary woman who, as much as anyone, taught our nation — and our world — that no physical or mental barrier can restrain the power of the human spirit. Her leadership greatly enriched the lives of Special Olympians throughout the world, who have experienced the pride and joy of competition and achievement thanks to her vision.
She was an extraordinary woman. Our condolences to her family. May she rest in peace.
