    This is a wonderful tribute to a wonderful, soft, human, and giving, great man. This world will not be the same without Nelson Mandella. We in Canada are grieving with you. Such a loss, but one man who made such a GIANT footprint on this earth.

    A chapter has closed in South Africa. May those who support him and those who only remember the blood he spilled find peace together.
    I will light a candle for all whose lives he touched...good and bad.
