The following tribute is by former President Barack Obama:
”I first met John (Lewis) when I was in law school and I told him
he was one of my heroes.
Years later when I was elected to the United States Senate I told
him I stood on his shoulders.
When I was elected President of the United States, I hugged him
on the inauguration stand before I was sworn in and told him I
was only here because of the sacrifice he made.”
