Rest in Peace @SpeakerBusch. You served with dignity and respect for all even those who you did not agree with. I will never forget you telling me "keep up the good work young man and take care of Herring Run Park." Maryland will be forever grateful for your service. Thank you.

Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. #goodtrouble
