I remember the late Jack Furman fondly. I remember, twenty years ago now, when I started my mayoral campaign, I went to visit Furman, hoping to get his support. He was polite and helpful, and though I failed to get his support, he said one of the most humorous comments as I faced the campaign ahead, when I confided my concerns about campaigning as such a young candidate. "What's the worst that can happen? You could win. Then you'll actually have to be mayor." As a former mayor himself, he knew what the job was like. It was a comment I remembered...often.

ReplyDeleteI didn't know much about Dick Furman's boy, but I knew Dick, and he was a very likable person.
