His passion for justice and social change combined with his commitment to the principles of nonviolence and perseverance made him a powerful messenger of freedom, peace, and equality where these ideals had been spurned for too long. The world has lost today one of the most influential and compelling figures in modern history. I join the nation of South Africa – and all those who were inspired by Mandela and the ideals he embodied – in mourning this great loss.” Bridgeport, CT 211 State Street, 2nd Floor Bridgeport, CT 06604 Phone: (866) 453-0028 Fax: (203) 333-6655 Hours: M - F 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Stamford, CT 888 Washington Boulevard, 10th Floor Stamford, CT 06901 Phone: (203) 353-9400 Fax: (203) 333-6655 Hours: M - F 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Washington, DC 119 Cannon House Office Building Washington, DC 20515 Phone: (202) 225-5541 Fax: (202) 225-9629 Hours: M - F 9:00 am to 6:00 pm | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
