I am printing this one for my new action items folder- yet to be named. I can think of no better motto for American citizens than Lean into Love. (Maybe the Dem Party too?) We need communicators like Connie to empower our hearts. And Franklin and his pal Walter, are pretty decent communicators too!

I moved with our family in 1994 to Cincinnati. Me!!? Southern CA girl to NYC and Chappaqua with husband and 2 children. Ed ran pnc wealth mjmt. I high five them daily ! Our lives filled with wealth of Midwest. I proudly cast my vote for Sherrod , followed his honorable career in the Senate and read his book cover to cover. This morning in our Venice fl home I just discovered you. Fine writer you be. Tough time it also be. For you and our County. How far down a rabbit hole we’ve sunk. You’re best out .

Thank you for this. I was proud of Ohio for having him as a senator and am appalled that they failed to recognize his worth as their senator.

Beautiful. We’re going to miss Sherrod. One of the good guys for sure. Not many left these days.

Have always been a fan of Sherrod and his determination to improve the lives of the working class. He is lucky to have you in his cheering section!
