I was honored to walk by Senator Pell's house in Georgetown when I first arrived at Georgetown as a freshman from Oklahoma, and later to walk by his home in Newport as a neighbor. We were fraternity brothers (honorary) and he helped make my college education possible as well as several of my family members and countless Americans. His generousity rings through the ages.
