I read yesterday and. I'm like why don't good people much more alive. it is never easy to find very good humans

It's indeed worrisome however he was already called by our creator to allow him for an eternal rest. He died on his sleep, without struggles. Those who died struggling were said to have been living with sins.

That's how the world works both good and bad people dies. it is just the universal rules

It is reality that man is mortal, however, James Harrison had done good deeds that God amused of and he will certainly reach paradise. The mom of my co-worker died at 93 in her sleep. She only said she will sleep and it was in broad daylight.

I saw the news of Twitter or X, this is a true definition of a hero, not all heroes wear capes. May his soul rest in peace.

James Harris is considered a hero for saving thousand babies and moms. The recipients of his rare blood will never forget him. He's one in a million. May God give James Harris eternal peace.

It just a sad one that such a soul should even die now. But unfortunately that's the end for all mortals

 

[Xtynehappy]

That man is more than a super hero for that matter. That's because the number of babies that he saved it's astonishing for sure.

 

[Augusta]

Definitely, a hero and an angel have departed the earth. Hopefully, we have a replacement someday

If Harris has a family most probably one of them could have a rare blood. However, there's individual differences, a family member or relative may not have a heroic feeling towards the needy.

That's right another for that same blood type might even wants to donate to people. Some people are just born selfish

Yes, agree, there are many of them scattering on earth,selfish . I do believe that there are members in their clan having a rare blood but afraid or not interested to help.

Yeah that's just the truth. They need to help of they have this blood type. They need to help humanity

In my opinion, if there are family members and relatives having this rare blood are afraid to donate. They do not like to handle responsibility. The heroic attitude of James Harris is one in a million.

Death is inevitable. The most important thing is to live a life worthy of emulation so that when we pass, we have good legacy we should leave behind.

Yes, you're so right, doing good things while still alive is essential to be praised, admired and emulated. What Harris did to his community is worth to consider him a hero.

Yes we would all die someday. but it is always painful when good and valuable people die so quick it doesn't make sense

You are right; it hurts seeing and knowing potential and useful people die, whereas the bad continue living and doing harm and illegalities.
