“A note about Jan Paulk. She is a wonderful woman and has been such a help to us in our Senate activities as we travel and do our official duties, visiting with Prime Ministers, Presidents, and State funerals and all the rest. Jan Paulk, a very engaging woman, was hospitable, patient beyond words, and a fine companion on journeys, some with great sadness, some pomp and circumstance, and there was Jan, always assisting everyone, including spouses, and being genial, kind, and courteous in every way. I have never seen her when she was out of sorts, and she certainly could have been on many occasions. My wife and I wish her well. Indeed, she is a very wonderful woman. There is much more for her to do, and she will do it. I am very pleased for her about her new task. She will enjoy all and she will do it exceedingly well. We wish her Godspeed.”
