I liked this last part of the article too (showing that he really did learn from and listen to his constituents on the fishing issues:


Between myself, and many fishing industry advocates who pressed Sen. Kerry, we soon found a champion of the industry in him which was more important than ever due to the loss of Sen. Kennedy in 2009.


and I loved this sentence that you excerpted:

From where I sit, this is how Sen. Kerry was – diplomatic, open to new information, and compassionate. We thank him for serving the Commonwealth and our city well.
