Congressman Charlie Norwood Dies at 65

charlie norwoodRep. Charlie Norwood, who had been battling lung cancer, has died at home in Georgia at the age of 65.

Norwood had a lung transplant in 2004 due to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Unfortunately, the immune suppression drugs he took as a result of the transplant led to lung cancer in the non-transplanted lung. The cancer later spread to his liver.

"Charlie was a great member of this body and a friend to all," Rep. Nathan Deal, a fellow Georgia Republican, said on the House floor. Gov. Sonny Perdue ordered flags to be flown at half-staff at all Georgia state buildings.

Hi there, I have been lurking around your website for a couple weeks. I love this article and your entire blog! Keep it up!

Extremely interesting blog post thanks for sharing I just added your blog to my favorites and will be back :) By the way this is a little off topic but I really like your sites layout.

Very informative text. I've found your blog via Google and I'm really happy about the information you provide in your articles. Btw your sites layout is really broken on the Kmelon browser. Would be really great if you could fix that. Anyhow keep up the good work!
