I want to express my deepest sympathies to the Scalia family. Justice Scalia was first and foremost a family man, beloved by his wife, 9 children, and 36 grandchildren. Since 1986 he had served on the highest court in our land. He inspired deep loyalty among his many friends and his current and former clerks, who remember him for his sharp wit and intellect. He was clearly a man who rose above ideological differences with his colleagues to forge deep friendships on the Court. That is a credit to him. While I may have disagreed with him on matters of law and policy, we are united as Americans in sharing our condolences. ____________________
