Cook County Commissioner Dennis Deer, whom I have known since he was a child, worked with his mother and father. I knew the family well. He was a great public servant. Well trained and prepared for the work that he did. A psychologist by training but a public servant of the highest degree. I trust that his family, wife, children, and other members of the family can take solace in terms of how much he meant to the city of Chicago and Cook County.
The public service that he provided, the leadership, the friendship, we're just hoping that the family can find some person, and I'm sure they will, to do the great work that Commissioner Deer exemplified. Please note that all my staff, all of my family, and many of our volunteers who had direct contact with Dennis extend their greatest condolence.
