Regarding the passing of John Glenn, all of the following may be attributed to Congressman Steve Stivers (R-Ohio):
 
“Our hearts go out to Annie and the entire Glenn family as we mourn the loss of Ohio’s favorite son, John Glenn – a true hero and statesman.
 
“Through his aeronautical pursuits he was able to transcend the Earth, and he later served ably in the United States Senate."
 
“Today, I join with countless others across the county in honoring his life and service. ‘Godspeed, John Glenn.’”
