Our symposiasts did a fine job of memorializing him, and I understand that the next issue of NR will carry an appreciation by William F. Buckley Jr. In addition to everything else that has been said about him–about his devotion to his country and his principles, his intelligence, his generosity–one other thing should be remembered: He was a lot of fun. He never seemed to take himself too seriously, even when he took what he was saying very seriously, and on the too-rare occasions I saw him he never failed to brighten my day. I’ll miss him.
