My heart, Denise's heart goes out to the miners that worked alongside of Steven, got to know him. It's a sad day, but I want to make sure we're honoring the brave miners. This person was a foreman by all accounts. He was working to save the lives of others down in that mine when the accident happened. So I hope we all keep him in our hearts and prayers today and we let everyone know that minors are part of the family and we're all together on Team West Virginia. (21:53–22:02)
