I speak today, therefore, in tribute to Senator John Warner. I have known John Warner for nearly 30 years. In 1978, the people of Montana and Virginia sent us both to the Senate for the first time. I thank the people of Montana and Virginia for giving me the opportunity to serve with John Warner. As a young man, John Warner fought forest fires in Montana. Very often when I am talking to John, he recalls those times in Montana. His eyes brighten up. He very much reminisces about how much he enjoyed spending time in the State.
