I knew Joe Kernan. You are no Joe Kernan. You could aspire to help your fellow hoosiers. However you are content to be a waterboy and puppet. Too bad you didn’t intern with Joe. You might have developed some honor and backbone.

? rip Joe Kernan, I worked with him on the Kernan Shepard Commision. He was such a kind, intelligent man. Indiana could use more like him.

Rest in peace. He was a class act & a American hero. Joe Kernan & John McCain are national treasures & POW’s. ???

He joked with me about the Red Sox beating the Yankees & when he heard I’d been awake for two days straight he said with a smile, “Kyle, the Governor of Indiana orders you to go home & sleep.” It was an honor to have known him. Much love tonight to the family of Gov. Joe Kernan.

I had the pleasure of teasing him in his office about a baseball game when I was a Senate intern and later enjoyed a Garrison Keillor performance along side him in the Governor’s box. He was very kind.

Just saw Joe Kernan died. He was an incredibly accomplished person, from being shot down over Vietnam and spending nearly a year as a POW to becoming governor under incredibly difficult circumstances (and then naming Kathy Davis as Indiana’s first woman Lt. Governor.)

Long before Four Winds Field added a splash pad for the kids and a cool community vibe for summer nights, professional baseball was as good as gone from South Bend. Joe Kernan decided to do something about it:

You won’t find a much better man, Hoosier, or American than Joe Kernan.
He was someone I was fortunate to have had as an example in both the political and public servant world as I came up in my career. I’m so thankful for that. Rest In Peace dear sir-thank you for your service pic.twitter.com/tv7t1w77B8— Heather K Maddox (@HeatherKMaddox) July 30, 2020
