I am so sad to hear that FedEx founder Fred Smith has died. He was a great man -who was always generous with his time with me & always gave back in so many ways. He loved this country deeply & he cared. Fred will be sorely missed. R.I.P. Fred. @FedEx apnews.com/article/fred-smith-fedex-founder-died-645c93a192744e1ab8817ffb894ead01#
