James Broyhill remains in my memory as one of the most exemplary politicians and gentlemen ever to guide NC into prosperity, and his presence will be missed by many for decades to come.

I have great memories of Senator Broyhill and my grandfather, Cecil Miller during the times they were working together on political campaigns. He was always very kind to me and my family, welcoming us to Washington and taking to time to show us around the area. He truly was a man of integrity. Ed and family, please know that you will be in our prayers.

My deepest condolences to the Broyhill family. I enjoyed many Monday night dinners with the Broyhills and their group of friends over the years. Rest in peace.

Met Jim back in 1975 who was a friend of my Father's. Over the years following, I came to know him personnally and can only say I wish that there were many more like him in todays Congress, a True Man with Honor, Vision, Conviction, and true Gentleman. He will be missed.

Ed, Dan and I are so very sorry to hear about the passing of your father. I know Dan felt so privileged to have met your father a few months back with you. Our heartfelt condolences, Dan and Jo Bishop
