Strahorn Issues Statement on Passing of US Sen. John Glenn
House Democratic Leader Fred Strahorn (D-Dayton) issued a
statement last week in response to the death of Ohio
astronaut and U.S. Sen. John Glenn. Glenn, 95, was the first
person to orbit the earth and later had a successful 25-year
span of service as a U.S. Senator from Ohio.
“John Glenn represented what is best about America. He
inspired generations with hope, teaching us to reach beyond
ourselves for something greater. I was personally inspired
to study aviation because of his extraordinary
accomplishments in flight. Glenn’s legacy of public service
endures in the hearts and minds of Americans who honor his
heroism and dedication through their own commitment to our
country, to each other, and to the peaceful advancement of
humanity.”
