Dear Richard Holbrooke, Thank you for your tremendous service to the U.S. and the world.



The day Hillary arrived at the State dept, he was nominated. Hillary has the highest respect for Richard.  He has been a tremendous diplomat.  His work in the Bosnian war was exceptional.  The world owes Richard Holbrooke a great deal. 

My heart goes out to Kati Morton, the widow of Richard Holbrooke, previously widow of Peter Jennings.

Richard Holbrooke, R.I.P.
