My condolences as you mourn the loss of your dear loved one. Our prayer is that you find comfort and hope during this most difficult time.

What a great experience I had working with Thad Cochran and his staff in 1985 as a LEGIS Fellow. My sympathy to all, especially to Kay. I also lost my wife Jo on May 8 this year, so this was not a great year!

Thank you, Mr. Cochran, for everything, especially your kindness and dedication to your state and country!

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Thank you for your service to the state of Mississippi during Katrina. R.I.P.

You will be sorely missed! Fly high Senator!

Thank you Sir for your service to Mississippi, the nation, world, and human kind. I also deeply appreciate your conservation efforts especially for waterfowl.
