I recorded this Christmas organ version of "Brass Bonanza." The original version was the official theme song of the Hartford Whalers, who played in the National Hockey League from 1979-1997.

Judge Frank Caprio proved that justice and kindness can go hand in hand.

As RI remembers his impact, I took to the House Floor this week to honor his lasting legacy and to urge all to spread kindness in his memory.
