Tillman's youngest brother, Rich, wore a rumpled white T-shirt, no
jacket, no tie, no collar, and immediately swore into the microphone.
He hadn't written anything, he said, and with the starkest honesty, he
asked mourners to hold their spiritual bromides.
"Pat isn't with God," he said. "He's f -- ing dead. He wasn't
religious. So thank you for your thoughts, but he's f -- ing dead."

I beleive in this country it's up to the mourner to pray if he/she chooses. I said a prayer for Pat.
Ain't taking it back. Pat died for a cause that he felt was important. So do I.

I am not one to follow sports figures......*at all*, except maybe for
the scandals thrown at me by the media of course....but WOW! He was
really a selfless man.
What a shame that he is gone.......and prisoner abusers carry on.
