Remembering Sen. Malone
The Senate returned Monday for its first session since the death of Sen. Vernon Malone.
Sen. Marc Basnight remembered his friend and colleague this way:
"I thought over the weekend, as you have as well, what people like Vernon meant to all of us. We understood him. We fully realized what Vernon's purpose and mission in life was. But for those who did not spend time with Vernon, or did not follow in the area where he lead, they'll have no measure of discomfort as we have tonight. They'll have no reason to find the sadness that we unfortunately are experiencing.
Malone will be buried Thursday. Click here for details.
