I wish I could find a photo of her when she was young. She was smoking! She still looked good to the end IMO. Very pretty lady. I hope they give her a lovely memorial.

Gurl, I was watching CNN today after I heard she passed, and one of those dumb ass analysts actually said something like, "She was married to this gorgeous man even though she wasn't so good lookin'"

Really, WTF???

You've got to be kidding me??? Damn everyone should be writing in for that dumb-ass remark! I mean what was wrong with her looks?? They act like she was the elephant woman or something like that and his shit didnt stink. Not to make this about something else, but she was an honorable woman to the end, i like how they announced it and then she was gone next day, as opposed to the media following her to the very end, this reminded of how Freddie Mercury went, a press release that he had Aids and then he was dead within the day, some say Freddie didnt even want the press release. But i hope the kids grow up to be just like her and not their dad, yeah i know, he had an affair and its happend before, and we all must forgive, but this bastard lied and lied and lied and then lied more and still lies to this day about shit, its scary how bright this guy is about topics and such a dumb fuck about stupid meaningless shit.

Somebody actually said that?

Yep. It was some chick with short dark hair and Wolf asked her how well she knew Elizabeth. And she explained that she spent a lot of time with them during his bid. I was halfway listening but she said something about Elizabeth being very passionate about her husband when she spoke about him on the road then the next comment I heard was about him being gorgeous and she wasn't. I changed the channel after that shit. I shoulda rewound it to get that heffa's name.

That's really true about most men in power. They can really compartmentalize and get into all kinds of dick-related trouble even if they're geniuses.

I wonder if folks wrote in about it?

just saw it on People, yesterday they had the headline of her cancer is spreading and today...not here.

wow...RIP. And she aws on Facebook yesterday I think as well....so sad.

Class act all the way...RIP

So sad. We really lost a classy lady.

This really saddends me. She went through so much, but stayed strong. I feel sorry for her kids especially, her husband as well. They were married a long time and it can't be easy for him. She was such a beautiful person, inside and outside, GOD rest her soul...I pray she was at peace with her life and that all her troubles melted. She will be missed by many. She is in a better place now with GOD.

I was very sad to hear this. She was indeed a very classy lady.

Pure hateration! Liz was damn foine and John was lucky to have HER! I swear these media folk are so sexist and insensitive at times. I think people judged her more by her weight than her face. People in the media are really cruel when it comes to judging curvy or heavy women. Now I will be the first (and maybe the last) one to say that a heavy Elisabeth Edwards ran circles around a skinny Jacqueline Kennedy and yet folk want to marvel at how supposedly beautiful Jackie O was. Brain washing.

OMG look at what a beautiful child she was! Alright I'm going to cry. When my nana died they put her childhood pictures up around the coffin. I about lost my mind. I can't believe Elizabeth is just gone like that. I hope the fight for national healthcare will continue. I really admired her for her committment.

Poor kid died in a car accident. His car got swept up by heavy winds while he was driving on the highway. I think that's what John said in an interview a few years back; right around the time Liz's cancer spread to her bones.

You can see in her eyes, even then, that she was going to be a strong woman. Of course I'm looking at this picture now with the benefit of hindsight, but it still reminds me that little kids are just tiny grown-folks, waiting to grow into who they'll be.

SHE LOOKS LIKE WONDER WOMAN IN THIS FIRST PIC!

I believe they (and similar groups) have won court battles allowing them to engage in these types of disrespectful so-called protests.

i agree they should be stopped. but there's that 'free speech' thing. imo a funeral is not a public place where an individual's right to free speech should be given free reign. but, the law does not yet know its own mind on this one. supreme court is still debating the issue.

maybe someone should organize a counterprotest to keep the westboro peeps away

she deserved no more attention than any other dead person.

That's so very true. Nevertheless, she was greatly admired and respected by some of the people on this site.

deserving and receiving are two different things.
