Joseph R. Biden III, the former attorney general of Delaware and the
eldest son of Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., has died of brain
cancer, his father announced on Saturday. The younger Mr. Biden
was 46.
In a statement Saturday night, the vice president said, “It is with
broken hearts that Hallie, Hunter, Ashley, Jill and I announce the
passing of our husband, brother and son, Beau, after he battled
brain cancer with the same integrity, courage and strength he
demonstrated every day of his life.” The statement went on to say,
“In the words of the Biden family: Beau Biden was, quite simply, the
finest man any of us have ever known.”
