A Man Who Lived His Work

"The world is shaped by people like Jim Foley and the overwhelming majority of humanity who are appalled by those who killed him...we will continue to confront this hateful terrorism and replace it with a sense of hope and civility.

That's what Jim Foley stood for, a man who lived his work, who courageously told the stories of his fellow human beings and who was liked and loved by friends and family.

Today, the American people will all say a prayer for those who loved Jim. All of us feel the ache of his absence. All of us mourn his loss."

--President Obama
