And now, we’re no longer graced with another individual, who had morals and great understandings, of how we all should live together. As an example, of the morals / aura, Rep. Elijah Cummings transcends: Please review the MSNBC’s MTP Daily segment; Elijah Cummings: '200 Years From Now, People Will Be Reading About This Moment' (Published on 28th February 2019) May his family and friends, remain strong 💪🏾💪🏽💪🏼💪, with the knowledge, that his soul is resting peacefully, along, with his fellow, great, aura companions. 🙏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏
