I thank Mr. Hill for allowing us, those of us who knew, worked with, admired John McCain, to have this moment, to have this time to honor and to remember and to, frankly, speak about someone who all of us admired so much. Senator John McCain was, as you have heard from everyone and from all of us who knew him and who had contact with him, he was a patriot and he was a great American hero. I am profoundly blessed to count this man as both a trusted colleague and a loyal friend. We have heard so many things about him today, tonight, because, again, of this wonderful moment that Mr. Hill has done for us here tonight, allowed us to do tonight.
