you find out you are very wrong.

I think this sadness and loss is going to be with many of us for a long time to come.

One man devoted his entire life to making the lives of others better. He set a very high bar. A very high bar.

John Robert Lewis, may you have eternal peace.
You certainly earned it. And then some.

How I wish you could have been here a little longer. There are a few things I wish you could see happen.
And I know you wanted them to happen.
We will all have to do it for you.

You did your nation proud sir.
