A true American hero

On the eve of Election Day, we can all use a reminder about the preciousness of the right to vote in this country. Click here to read about a 93-year-old World War II veteran diagnosed with terminal cancer whose last act as an American citizen was to cast an absentee ballot in the upcoming election. Mr. Frank Tanabe passed away a week after the photo was taken. This story is for those of us who need a little extra encouragement to go to their polling place and vote.
