Senator Edward Kennedy has died at the age of 77 in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts.  He was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor back in May 2008.

“We’ve lost the irreplaceable center of our family and joyous light in our lives, but the inspiration of his faith, optimism and perseverance will live on in our hearts forever,” a family statement said. “We thank everyone who gave him care and support over this last year, and everyone who stood with him for so many years in his tireless march for progress toward justice.”

Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

R.I.P. Edward ‘Ted’ Kennedy
