You may not have always (or ever!) agreed with her, but Ms. Roberts was one of the classier ones. She will be missed. (Or maybe not!)
A sad day for political junkies

Enjoys golf, football (real and fantasy), being the best grandfather I can, supporting the endeavors of my children (both involved in the education of our younger generations) and tormenting my wife of 34 years. Also prefer bourbon over scotch, but will drink both, just not at the same time. Discovering craft beers and trying trying hard to get to a consistent golf swing. View all posts by Adam Green

Like most of her fans, I had no idea she was ill.
Sad day.

I knew she had fought a battle with breast cancer. I was not aware that she came out of remission.
One very beautiful remembrance of who Cokie Roberts was as a person was broadcast on NPR yesterday from her friend and co-worker, Nina Totenberg. I sat in my driveway with tears in my eyes listening to it after work yesterday.

It was a “driveway moment” for me too.
Her cancer was in a 14 year remission. Can’t ever count out that disease.
