Someone whose insight, whose energy, whose leadership we all miss so much. When Melissa and Mark Hortman were taken from us, we didn't just lose treasured friends. We lost the most consequential speaker in Minnesota's history and the most talented legislator I have ever known. Mark and Melissa's children, Sophie and Colin are here tonight, along with Colin's wife, Alina. You have shown so much courage and grace over these last months. (08:00–08:07)
