Although neither a Republican nor an Arizonian, I feel extremely lucky that my country was served by Senator McCain. I am so sorry for your loss.

To all the McCain Clan---I will certainly notify Dan(from the other branch) when he returns from Wyoming, and also Leland McReynolds, pastor of the Federated Church in Brookston, IN, who knew Reid and Hope in his younger days.
I was a student of Leona when I was younger.

My deepest condolences in the loss of a precious father, husband, brother, friend and veteran. His youngest sister Lynda has always fondly spoken of the McCain Clan and spoken of his tenderheartedness. I am sure he will be missed, and his service to the Army honored and appreciated the rest of our lives.

You were my uncle and I didn't know you very well but you will be missed by the entire McCain clan. Thank you for serving your country with honor!
