I am very sorry to hear of John Anderson's passing. I was a Junior at the University of Illinois when I decided to cast my first presidential vote for John Anderson. I believe one of the campaign's last stops just before election night was at the Auditorium on the U of I campus. It was a raucous gathering of idealistic young people. Later, my law career to me to Rockford, Illinois, where I practiced for over 15 years. In Rockford, John Anderson was a revered figure who stood for intellect, ethics and fairness. To the Anderson family: Thank-you for a man who represented the best of our culture and government. He inspired me as a citizen and as a lawyer.

Dear Keke and family, So very sorry for your loss. John was my mentor and gave me a chance to learn how to try cases. I co-chaired several cases with him in the driver's seat. He was a wonderful trial lawyer. Of course I tried to copy his style and his demeanor. I joined him at a States Atty convention in Milwaukee in 1958 and told him that the speaker for the luncheon would never go anywhere (J.F.K. was the speaker). We had early correspondence after he went to Washington and i still have some of his letters. His writing style was as fluid as his oral skills. He came to Rockford 5(?) years ago, or so and i had a brief chance to talk with him. Comparing him with most of the persons in Congress makes me so very sad. God bless you all. Mary joins me in this note. Ben Healy

Although I was only 16 and unable to vote, your father inspired me to get involved and help out on the campaign. He was a gifted and dedicated public servant, and though I never met him personally, seemed to be a truly good man in both his public and private lives. If only we still held our representatives to the standards your father set...
My condolences and also my joy that he lived such a full life and that your family was lucky enough to have him for so long.
