As an educator at a public university in Massachusetts, UMass Amherst, I wanted to acknowledge the life and death of our great senator, Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy. Very few have worked so tirelessly for our great state and nation and his dedication, energy, and outstanding humanity and public service will live on through the legislation that he initiated and shepherded through, and through all those that he directly influenced and connected with.
Thank you, Senator Kennedy!
May you rest in peace.
Deepest condolences to all of your family members.
