I had the privilege of meeting him a long time ago. He was a good man who put country before politics. A true gentleman. We need more of his kind in our messed up world.

Oh, for more courteous civil politicians like him - - definitely a role model. R.I.P.

In addition to being a good and honest man, he was an American hero.

A decorated veteran, a director of the FBI, along with serving in congress and as VP and President.

All done with integrity, class and honesty.

He was probably the best representative of the Greatest Generation. Unfortunately his "read my lips, no new taxes" sealed his fate as president. A true American hero.
