R.I.P. Stewart Udall

Part of the iconic Udall political family. This guy was instrumental in establishing Redwood NP, North Cascades NP, Guadalupe Mountains NP, and Canyonlands NP when he was Secretary of the Interior. Additionally, he was from a Mormon family, but liked martinis. He also was an all-conference guard at the U of A, a supporter of bipartisanship because he considered environmental preservation to be an issue that benefits all Americans, and an early champion of Rachel Carson ("Silent Spring"...read it!).
They don't make 'em like that any more.
