My heart is broken. I am so lucky to have lived the adventure of loving this incredible man for 38 years. He passed the way he lived, on his own terms, surrounded by the people he loved, in the the place he loved best.

In an age of political venality, cowardice & mediocrity, John McCain was a giant. A man whose principles prevented him from accepting release from torture – & whose principles survived the temptation of the highest office, when he publicly rejected false lurid claims about Obama.
