Sen. John McCain had an impact not just on our nation and the world through his work, but on the lives of many people fortunate enough to have known him personally. I would spend several hours sorting a large amount of mail each week in McCain’s office. Thousands of letters came not just from McCain’s Arizona constituents, but from people all over the country and globe. A few months into my freshman high school year, John McCain became my new inspiration, bumping Cal Ripken to the bench. I was vacationing in Israel when I woke up to sadly discover that John McCain had died a few hours earlier.
