RIP Robert Byrd

[GraysonK]

Robert C. Byrd, 9 term senator from WV died today.  He is probably the single most influential and beloved West Virginian ever.  He started serving in Congress in 1959.  All of WV knows his name and his legacy.  He will be dearly missed.  This is not meant to spark political debate, it is simply to acknowledge the passing of one of the greatest men I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.
