Rest in Peace. You sacrificed a lot for this country.

I met him multiple times (like over 10), not one of those meetings was a good experience. I can't think of a nice thing to say about those meetings and run-ins. Not even in 2002 when I told him I was joining the Army as I just had finished college.

Too harsh and political. Invites controversial argument. Community Hall not the place for it.

One of the few I had real respect for. I’ll use my McCain coffee mug today. Major loss to our country, but we’re better for having him while we did.
IIRC, a 40 year marriage, something rare in DC.

- I know those voices in my head are not real, but man they have some good ideas.

- I never killed anyone, but I have read a large number of obituaries with great satisfaction.

- If I cannot make it to your funeral, I will certainly send a message indicating my approval.

You guys could delete your comments instead of getting a memorial thread sent to PWEC.

Yes, it was a 40 year marriage. He left his wife who stood by him and started an affair with her, the daughter of millionaires.

In defense of him, he did call it his greatest moral failing.

He admitted he was a hothead and made mistakes when he was younger. That's more than many own up to.
