It brought a tear to my eye Tuesday in Carson City when the late Assemblyman Marvin Sedway was honored. Several lawmakers gave tributes, including a moving speech by Ways and Means Chairman Morse Arberry in which he recalled Sedway's admonition: "If there's no penalty for doing it wrong, there's no incentive for doing it right." Judiciary Chairman Bernie Anderson recalled Sedway's "heartfelt feeling toward kids, education and the common man." Indeed, Sedway was one of a kind - a kind Carson City sorely misses, the kind of lawmaker who wasn't afraid of political repercussions, who wasn't afraid to fulminate when it was called for and who got a lot of good things done. I miss him.
