4. God Bless her soul. They are together again.......

She was the greatest wife, what a role model.

[marions ghost]

14. The Christopher Reeve Paralysis Foundation...

the only organization out there that gives real hope to severe spinal cord injury patients. Both the Reeves did so much to make a difference. May others carry on in their name.

21. Very sad day today

First Kirby Puckett, now Dana Reeve. Man oh man, just too much at once. Both people are gone from this earth too soon. RIP Dana Reeve. RIP Kirby Puckett. :-( :(

[wicket]

22. Very very sad all around

:cry:

[Blue_Roses]

23. oh, God, I am so heart-broken over this

I just heard on the news this morning. Who is going to take care of her young son. I feel so sorry for him losing 2 parents in such a short time. I am so sad. She was such a wonderful person.

I'm just numb:cry:

[DeepModem Mom]

24. Thank you, Dana, for fighting the good fight.

[Cha]

25. Bless Dana and Christopher

Reeve! They were such tireless workers for helping other people when they were going through so much themselves. O8) O8)

How the heck did she get lung cancer?

[tjwash]

26. Died of lung cancer, and never smoked a day in her life.

Somehow, that just makes it that much worse.

[NightOwwl]

30. In an interview (might have been Larry King)...

she talked about her many years of singing in smoke-filled lounges.

Second-hand smoke does kill.

[earth mom]

27. I'm very sad to hear this.

My heart breaks for her family and especially for her young son. :cry:

[linazelle]

28. Very very sad....I feel for her son. n/t

[NightOwwl]

29. Oh my god!

Their poor child. How will he be able to deal with this tragedy so soon after his father died?

:cry:

[readermostly]

31. This is just devastating, especially for her 13 year old son. She had more

courage, grace, and dignity throughout the last decade than I can even imagine. This was no doubt her character always. She was sincerely a wonderful, remarkable woman.

[hopeisaplace]

32. That is so so sad. I feel for her son right now.

Bless her and her kind spirit. What a lovely lady.
Very sad. I was shocked, cause I hadn't followed how ill
she had gotten.
