Political Quotes

“Herb Bateman was more than an outstanding Congressman. He was an outstanding American and a fine gentleman. We contributed mightily to his District, his state and the nation. He served together on the Transportation and Infrastructure committee where his wise advice was sought and followed. We travelled together on several Delegation trips around the world, and he and his wife, Laura, were a delight to be with. America is less bright today because of the passing of my friend and colleague, Herb Bateman. But America is better today because of his life. May he rest in peace.”
