I was surprised and saddened to hear of the passing of one of the great American leaders of any time, General Colin Powell.
His service to our nation was legendary on so many fronts.

My main interactions with General Powell involved ‘soft power’ making sure developmental aid was used in a way to make the world a better place.
General Powell cared deeply about the men and women of the State Department.
He is noted as a great military leader, justifiably so, but he also had a passion for diplomacy and the benefits of avoiding war by stabilizing troubled regions.

The men and women of the foreign service never had a better champion.
My prayers are with his family and many friends in the days ahead.
