My thoughts and prayers go out to Mike's family. He was a friend and mentor and will be greatly missed. I was a better legislator and person because of his friendship and guidance. His constituents, the citizens of the State of Missouri and especially its' children are better off because of his public service. God speed my friend.
Representative Lair was a true educational supporter. I appreciated our visits regarding educational matters and his willingness to always be available for such discussions. He will be truly missed. Our prayers to Jeanne and families.
What a wonderful and kind man... he will be missed by many. Jeanne we want you and the family to know that we have you in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
