Sargent Shriver, related to the Kennedy family through marriage, passed away today.
He used his position of influence in the Kennedy Family to advance countless humanitarian causes, both here and abroad. I always felt he positively impacted more lives around the world and did more to enhance the image of the US abroad than most of the politicians of his time.
Keeping this DR related, he was also the first Director of the Peace Corps which has been sending volunteers to the D.R. since 1962.
And even closer to the board, I believe at least one poster here was a volunteer Peace Corps worker here in the sixties.
