He was articulate and committed, and added so much to our efforts in meeting with legislative staff. I had been thinking about some local efforts, and with Chad as a new ally I felt freshly energized. What a loss - Delaware grieves.

And thanks for connecting Chad and I in 2005 when he moved to Chicago. He was a blessing to me and to so many, and the loss we experience is not just personal -- its so much bigger than that.
