The lives of these individuals, working for peace in our world, shall not be forgotten. To honor their lives, we must do what we can, each and every one of us, to work toward peace in whatever capacity we can. That is what John would want and I am sure that is what Abdelrahmen would want. I hope that my sincerest sympathy might reach Abdelrahmen's family via this posting as I have no other was to share it. May the great spirit and beauty of the lives of both John and Abdelrahmen live on in us in our renewed efforts to promote peace.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/death_of_a_colleague/ Fri Jan 11, 2008 Michael has posted a new comment
THANK YOU, John Granville, and Abdelrahman Abbas Rahama, for your dedication to making Sudan a better place. Even though Sudan right now is dangerous and they knew their lives were in danger, they did not give up on the mission in Sudan.

I do not pity them, I envy them. Because of the life of sacrifice for the people they did; both American and Sudanese. Let us not mourn their deaths but praise their lives. Thank you.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/death_of_a_colleague/ Tue Jan 08, 2008 Ralph has posted a new comment
My sincerest condolences to the families of the two individuals killed in this senseless attack. God speed to the investigators who hopefully can bring these murderers to justice.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/death_of_a_colleague/ Fri Jan 04, 2008 Joe has posted a new comment
It is always a sad situation when those who help are taken from the world. While many of us have served in a more offensive nature to defend and protect, those who SERVE in such a capacity to leave themselves open to attack while Aiding those who have no representation in their countries beyond what food may be available by those providing it are as much American Hero's as any soldier anywhere in the world. Perhaps more so as they do it with only one intent: TO HELP without intent of personal profit.

May God bless their souls and bring peace to their families in knowing they were Heroes of Democracy and provided hope where there was none.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/death_of_a_colleague/ Thu Jan 03, 2008
