Washington (CNN)Joseph "Beau" Biden III, an Iraq war veteran who served as the attorney general of Delaware and was a son of Vice President Joe Biden, has died at the age 46, the White House said in a statement Saturday night.

He had battled brain cancer.

Beau Biden had been receiving treatment at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, according to a statement released Tuesday by the vice president's office. He had suffered known health problems dating back to 2010, when he experienced a stroke that did not affect his motor skills or speech.

In 2013, Beau Biden was treated at a hospital in Houston that specializes in cancer care after he became disoriented and weak while on vacation. He later underwent surgery to have a brain lesion removed.

You are truly adorable. I mean, you try to make all personal, even things like this

11. Nadin, I don't know if there is some kind of history between you and pintobean or not, but at least

they didn't just reply with "DUPE!!!", like I have seen others do here. All 3 of us have been here long enough, and I'm sure we've all seen the posters who brag about the size of their 'ignore list', so I don't think it hurts to have several posts about one subject... especially on a matter like this, as many with those long ignore lists may not see it otherwise.....

Peace,

Ghost

12. There is an extremely long history

and goes back to my early days at this place.

He is special... and ignoring him only encourages him. As I told him already on Facebook over 8 months ago or so, this is about him and his need to do whatever he is doing. I no longer try to understand it. This is not about me, but about him. He is just adorable, though not in a good adorable.



I will add, he is trying hard to push buttons... and after the death of my dad, and my brother I came to realize that people like him are really not that important. I guess it will take a while for him to understand it, But this post of his was literally bizarre.

13. Thanks for the explanation, I didn't know...

I am also sorry to hear of your losses, I hope you are doing well...

Peace,

15. We are, though today, don't know the Bidens

but my mind went to my mother, immediately and her pain. Burying a child is not what parents should do. For Joe Biden this is the second child he buries. I cannot imagine.



(Why that post struck me as extremely bizarre)
