[silvershadow]

(Mar. 3, 2016)– He warmed the hearts of Bernie Sanders supporters everywhere when he appeared at a Las Vegas rally dressed as the candidate — with a mop of gray hair, a tie, and black, thick-rimmed glasses.

Now the family of Oliver Jack Carter Lomas-Davis is mourning his death from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

“Please come share w/us the short, beautiful life of Oliver who will be greatly missed but not forgotten,” his mother, Susan Lomas, posted on Twitter. A wake is scheduled for Monday.

The boy known to the world as the “Bernie baby” will be buried Tuesday.

2. Sad. It's a parent's big fear.

I remember checking on my son constantly when he was small. My heart goes out to them. Some things are much bigger than politics.

4. Apparently rates are down, but that is no consolation to those who continue to suffer
