"In essence, the conservative person is simply one who finds the permanent things more pleasing than Chaos and Old Night. (Yet conservatives know, with Burke, that healthy 'change is the means of our preservation.')" -Russell Kirk

Eunice Shriver, Requiescat in Pace!
She has been hailed as the "Pro-Life Kennedy." Her work in establishing the Special Olympics, which transformed "America's view of the Mentally Disabled from institutionalized patients to friends, neighbors and athletes"-in short, full human beings, made in the image of God just like the rest of us-is a resounding testament to her conviction that all human life is sacred and must not only be protected, but celebrated.
May God receive her in His Kingdom, where the faces of the saints shine with the everlasting glory of Him who trampled down death by death.
+Memory Eternal! +Memory Eternal! +May her memory be eternal!
