Stan Grenz has died

As hard as it is to comprehend, Stan Grenz has passed away.
I have seen an official statement from the family, but my understanding it that it was a brain aneurism. He went to sleep Thursday and never awoke. He officially died at 4 AM.
His wife and family are in great pain from what I have heard.
Stan was not only a leader in thinking, and a great benefit to me and many of us, but he was a really good man. He really was a good man. He will be deeply missed.

Brian McLaren is going to write a eulogy for and it will be on the Emergent blog.

There is a statement on his website with a picture of his family that may be helpful for some as they pray for the family.

this is very sad. I too spent very little time with him, but I remember how much he talked about his family. and it's obvious he will be missed.

this is indeed sad news. speechless.

*sigh*

this is such sad, sad news. I spent very, very little time with him, but he struck me as kind and thoughtful and truly a man seeking to live in the way of Jesus.
