I am deeply saddened by the passing of my friend Rod Paige. For more than twenty years, Rod and I were united by our shared belief that every child deserves equal opportunity, and that begins with equal education. Rod worked with me to help protect access to after-school programs that allow children to continue to learn and grow into their potential while both parents are working, while also protecting them from the biggest thieves of opportunity: crime, teenage pregnancy, drugs, and alcohol.
Rod’s wisdom, integrity, and unwavering commitment to children inspired me and so many others. I will miss his friendship, his counsel, and his giant heart. Today we mourn a great man, but we also celebrate an extraordinary legacy that will continue lifting up generations of young people. My thoughts are with Rod’s family and all who loved him.
