00:00Today under the law it's my duty to and honor to name someone to serve in the place of this
00:09irresistible man, this irreplaceable man, this extraordinary man for the remainder of his term.
00:20Lindsey took care of his little sister in years long departed. It's my honor to ask his little sister, Darlene
00:29Graham, to finish his work for him now and by the way, Darlene, I don't know if I told you,
00:36but after we spoke on the phone in the wee hours of Sunday morning and you agreed to serve through
00:43tears earlier,
00:49I had wondered what you would say and I was humbled by your quickness to see the duty that you
01:01had to serve and I called the president afterwards and he thought it was a great idea and I'm sure
01:10you that everyone here does as well. Darlene, little sister, come forward please.
01:22Thank you, Governor. And just bear with me as I try to get through this. But first I just want
01:29to say one thing I've never heard Lindsey described as is irresistible.
01:34So, okay, we'll just start with that. But first I would like to thank everyone who has called and reached
01:43out over the past couple of days. I can't tell you how much it's meant to me and our family.
01:49I know Lindsey was loved and respected by many and I greatly appreciate the memories and even the funny stories
01:58that have been shared. These shared experiences along with our faith have gotten us through these past two very difficult
02:08days.
02:09Next, I want to thank the governor for selecting me to serve the remainder of Lindsey's term.
