Very sorry to hear of the loss of former Delegate Vince Callahan. He was a long-time dedicated legislator and was an extremely fair Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee. When I had just been in the House for a year or two he helped me get substantial appropriations for the Doorways Shelter for Women and Families and also for the new Signature Theatre building in Arlington. Even when having served for nearly 40 years he had time to help a legislator from the other party; many, many years his junior. My sympathies to Yvonne Callahan.
