We Will Miss Molly Ivins

RECEIVED Tue., Feb. 6, 2007

Dear sirs,
    As a member of the peace vigil in front of the state Capitol every Friday, we dedicated last week's vigil (Feb. 2) to Molly Ivins.
    We considered her one of the last true investigative journalists left who was also a peace activist. We honored her in the way we thought she would respect the most.
    My name is Julian Ward. I'm the one who holds the "Bush Is Insane" sign at the vigils. I'm disabled and walk with a walking stick. I just had a heart attack at Christmas but still marched in the peace march on the 27th and will still go to peace demonstrations and vigils because I think it's important enough to die for. When will the rest of you wake up and start standing up for peace and freedoms and the environment we once had? We will miss brave people like Molly Ivins!
