THE WHITE HOUSE

Office of the Vice President

For Immediate Release July 27, 1995

STATEMENT BY VICE PRESIDENT AL GORE

Tipper and I are deeply saddened by the death of Duane Garrett. Duane was a man of many talents. He was a renowned art collector, an avid sports fisherman, a dedicated environmentalist, a talented lawyer and a formidable political strategist. Duane mastered more worlds than most men enter in a lifetime. At the end of his life he made a lasting contribution to the radio airwaves in San Francisco as an exciting and often controversial talk radio host.

During this time of grief, our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, Patty, his daughters, Laura and Jessica, and to all of Duane's family members and friends. He will be greatly missed.
