## Transcript

Mr. president, like many Americans, I was saddened to learn this morning of the death of former Vice President **** Cheney. **** was a lifelong public servant who believed very deeply in our country, and brought his considerable knowledge and intelligence to its service as Secretary of Defense and later as vice president. He played a key role in shaping policy on many of the most consequential issues of this day. He was also an avid outdoorsman and fly fisherman who loved spending time in the mountains of his home state. I enjoyed having him in South Dakota and showing off some of what our state has to offer.

Mr. president, my thoughts and prayers today are with his wife, Lynn, with his two beloved daughters, and with his seven grandchildren. This morning, Wyoming mourns the passing of Vice President **** Cheney. His career has few peers in American life. He was a high school football team my hometown of Casper, Wyoming, with an attorney, County high school. He was white House chief of staff for President Ford. He represented Wyoming in Congress for ten years, and actually served as the Republican whip in the United States House of Representatives, served as Secretary of Defense for our nation, and was vice president of these great United States of America.

His unflinching Leadership shape many of the biggest moments in domestic and U.S. foreign policy for decades. **** is going to be remembered as a towering figure who helped guide the course of history, certainly in Wyoming and also in the United States, and, of course, around the world. My prayers are with his wife Lynn, with daughters Liz and Mary, and with his grandchildren as they celebrate this incredible man. **** Cheney lived a life of service to his country. He was a bit of a pivotal political bug. Biting him very early in his life. And he was committed that entire life to public service.

He served as white House chief of staff under President Ford. He was a congressman for the people of Wyoming. He was the 17th Secretary of Defense and the 45th Vice President of the United States. **** Cheney was a part of American history for more than five decades. Barbara and I will pray for ****'s family as they mourn the loss of a beloved family member.
