U.S. Rep. Charlie Norwood, 65, passed away this morning at his Augusta home following an extensive battle with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and non-small cell lung cancer.

Norwood received a single lung transplant in 2004 as treatment for IPF, and developed non-small cell lung cancer in 2005.

Norwood represented the Augusta-to-Athens 10th congressional district since 1995, and was re-elected in November 2006 by a landslide margin.

FoxNews.com has more.

He was a stalwart supporter of immigration enforcement and border security, sponsor of the CLEAR Act, and a staunch conservative standard-bearer willing to stand up to the ethnic mau-mauers. He will be missed.
