Steve, i agree.

I think he was good for this country and that there are ideas of his from that time and going forward that were needed and some that we are beginning to embrace

I remember his stances on solar energy and nuclear power for example (I was young but I remember him being out front on alternative fuels for example)

Many people may not have agreed with you, many may have not liked your politics. That being said, the one indisputable fact is that you served your country to the utmost of your ability and for that we are all grateful. Our condolences to your family, and our thanks to you.

Thank you for your service to our country Mr. Bell and my condolences to your family.

The article about the Bushes' cat is more in-depth.

As are the responses.

My sympathies go to all families involved.

Jimmy Carter had many good people around him during his Presidency – Mr. Bell among them. A true Southern gentleman of his day.

you served your country well, you will be sadly missed.

Griffen Bell made a statement at the Bork hearings that resonates very deeply with me. He said that one of the most important rights is one that is not protected by the constitution, "the right to be left alone".

My condolences to his family.

May God Bless and keep his family.
