I would have been on the other side of the aisle if I had been in the Senate, but I know it would have made me proud to look across the aisle and see Senator John McCain. He was the sort of person who always had America’s best interest at heart. He was honest and steady, brave without question, a little quirky, frequently entertaining, sometimes annoying, but always, ALWAYS, worthy of our respect. Thank you, Sir, for being there when America needed you, not just once, not just twice, but every time the need arose. I don’t have many heroes, but you, Sir, will always be one. You were truly an officer and gentleman who understood what it meant to serve with honor. That you did, that you did. God speed and good sailing.
