It is on days like this in the House when you lose a colleague, John Adler, who passed, served in the previous Congress, that you realize how many good men and women come and serve in this House of Representatives, and what an honor it is to serve with them and to spend time with them while they are here on this Earth. It is also a reminder on how sometimes good people pass early, so we need to all enjoy each day the opportunity that God has given for us to live. John Adler was a fine man, he served honorably in this Congress, and he cared about human beings. He was my friend, and I will miss him. ____________________
