I just read on the Arkansas Times blog that Dr. Harrison, a beloved member of this community, died this morning.
Here's the link, although information is very sketchy.
Dr. Harrison was an abortion provider in Fayetteville, Arkansas. He wrote here and elsewhere about his experiences, especially after the murder of his friend Dr. George Tiller. (If anyone can show me how to put links to his work, I'd like to add them.)
Dr. Harrison had closed his clinic several weeks ago, and Sara R told us the story of his leukemia several weeks ago. (Thanks, skywriter.)
Despite my user name, Northwest Arkansas is a special place to me. Tonight it has one less reason to be special.
I'm sorry about the short diary, but I thought folks would want to know and to mourn. If anyone has info about how to let the family know of our wishes, please share them; otherwise, I'll try to share them through the church where his funeral is to be held.
