Our good friend, Jack Kemp, will be awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Obama in August. For those of us who knew Jack, we know he would have a big smile on his face but his words of acceptance would be very humble. He was an agent of change but more importantly he was just a great guy, a great husband and dad and all around wonderful human being. RIP Jack. You are missed and you were an icon and role model to all of your friends here in Washington, DC. Click here to read this article in The Buffalo News.
