No.34 Jimmy:
I wanted to talk, if you could,
say a few words about Congressman John Lewis,
who recently passed.
I know you two knew each other.
What do you remember about him most?

Keisha:
Just his humility.
And the beauty of growing up in Atlanta,
there are these giants that are real life.
A lot of people only knew John Lewis from reading about him
or watching him on television.
But we would see him in the grocery store
or in the drugstore or anywhere in the city.
He and C.T. Vivian and Dr. Lowery as well.
The 'A' memory I have of Congressman Lewis
is that my aunt worked in SNCC with him.
Her name was Ruby Smith Robinson.
She died at 26.
She died very young.
And whenever I would see Congressman Lewis,
he would ask about my cousin, her son.
And he would tear up when he talked about her.
And what always struck me about that
is she had died so many years before.
But he kept her in the movement so close and dear in his heart.
And it just he just always had time to talk to you,
to make you feel special,
and he just took pictures and selfies with 'B'.
And I never seen him complain.
Never seen him upset about anything other than injustices
that we all know that he was so passionate about.
But just a wonderful man, and just the best example
of servant leadership that I've had.

what those 'A','B' would be
