Beau Biden, Son of Vice President Dies at 46

(WA,DC)May 30- In a statement given by the White House, Joseph "Beau" Biden III, the oldest son of Vice President Joe Biden, died on Saturday of brain cancer.

History of health problems- Back in 2010 Beau Biden suffered from a stroke and in  2013, he was treated at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston after he became disoriented and weak while on vacation. While at the medical center he was diagnosed with brain cancer, and after undergoing surgery was given a clean bill of health.(CNN) 

Fast forward to 2015, Biden was told that the cancer had returned, launching agressive medical treatment at the Walter Reed National Miltary Medical Center in Maryland. The treatment proved to be no match for the cancer , Biden succumbed to the deadly disease. 

 A House in Mourning- The Biden family had been devastated by this sudden loss. Late Saturday the family released a statement expressing their grief and love for Beau Biden. In part it read: 

 "The entire Biden family is saddened beyond words. We know that Beau’s spirit will live on in all of us—especially through his brave wife, Hallie, and two remarkable children, Natalie and Hunter.

Beau Biden was, quite simply, the finest man any of us have ever known."

The Obama's too expressed sympathy for the passing of Beau Biden:

"Michelle and I humbly pray for the good Lord to watch over Beau Biden, and to protect and comfort his family here on Earth." 

He leaves behind his wife Hallie; two children, Natalie and Hunter; his brother Hunter and sister Ashley.
