True hero. Great man. Great Senator for my home state of Ohio. Had a really enviable voting record and worked well with people from all parties. Wish he would have run for President.

He was a hero to us wide eyed 4th graders whom he spoke with at many Ohio elementary schools as we learned Ohio history. I'll never forget getting to hear him speak about going to space. Proud that he was from my home state!
