I forget which state Democratic convention it was. I was a delegate, made my way into the Boston Garden and spotted Ted Kennedy, standing alone. I went up, introduced myself, thanked him for his work. Then I told him how, as a kid, I was inspired by his brother Bob's campaign for the senate in New York and getting the chance to see him in person. Senator Kennedy took my hand with both of his and said "You're so kind to remember my brother like that." A tear ran down his cheek.
Now its my turn to shed a tear.
