Colin Powell passes at 84
Colin Powell, advisor to every American president since Ronald Reagan has died.
I think he was universally respected and, if he wanted, could have been elected president. RIP, sir. |

I had the honor of meeting him while he was Secretary of State and I got to hear him speak at the same event.
Truly respected like few others. RIP PDG |

I’ve always held him with high regard and respect. He served the country admirably in uniform ( wounded twice in Vietnam) and out of uniform. A class act through and through. Thank you for your service General.

RIP. Damn this virus! He was battling multiple myeloma, so he had a compromised immune system. Very much a class act and well respected on both sides of the aisle. I always wished he would have run for president one day, but I know that was not a job he wanted. I saw him speak at an event once and he was very entertaining and eloquent. Great human being.
