DALLAS, TEXAS — “Laura and I are saddened to learn that a great patriot has passed away. Zell Miller deeply loved his family and his country, and he served both faithfully throughout his remarkable life. He was an example of service before self, country before party, principle before poll. His strong spirit benefited the people of Georgia and the United States and will be sorely missed.  Laura and I send our heartfelt condolences to Zell’s beloved wife, Shirley, and the entire Miller family as they mourn the loss of a good man.”
