Tonight, our nation has lost a remarkable public servant, our state has lost a courageous advocate and I have lost a dear friend. Congressman Ike Skelton was my mentor and among my closest colleagues when I first came to the U.S. House. For 34-years, Ike Skelton was a champion for his district, the State of Missouri and for every brave American who wore the uniform of this country. My family and I send our deepest sympathies to his wife Patty and his wonderful family. I am a better Member of Congress today because I served with Ike Skelton. His legacy of service and devotion to his constituents and our Armed Forces will never be forgotten.
