Default RIP Joe Rago-WSJ Editorial writer

Pulitzer Prize Winner. Joe knew more about Heath Care Policy than anyone I have read. So young, so sad. I will miss his commentary and opinion.

Do they suspect foul play? The article that served as his obituary sadly did not come up to the deceased' standards.

"No obvious signs of trauma" the article says.

Insufficient. From what I gather, the subject of the article did not exercise "understatement." Having aging parents and a special needs child I will miss having such an outspoken advocate.
