Reuters reports that former NASA Administrator Sean O’Keefe and his son survived the plane crash that killed former Sen. Ted Stevens last night.
The Washington Post’s obituary for Stevens is online here. And President Obama just released the following statement:
A decorated World War II veteran, Senator Ted Stevens devoted his career to serving the people of Alaska and fighting for our men and women in uniform. Michelle and I extend our condolences to the entire Stevens family and to the families of those who perished alongside Senator Stevens in this terrible accident.
