The Washington Post has a moving feature story on the life and death of Dr. Martin Salia, a lawful permanent resident physician from Sierre Leone who lost his life to Ebola during a medical visit to his home country during the disease's outbreak. The article also traces the impact of his death on his naturalized US citizen wife, Isatu Salia; Dr. Salia's Catholic faith; and his lifelong commitment to using his medical training to save lives in Sierra Leone. (Thanks to Elizabeth Keyes for bringing my attention to this beautiful story).
