“Jack Loew was the embodiment of the kind of entrepreneurship which leads to economic prosperity,” state Sen. Andrew Dinniman added, according to the article.

Dinniman, a host of fellow lawmakers and about 500 supporters were present Thursday for the Hall of Fame induction.

“I think for what he did and what he stood for, it would have meant the world to him,” son Adam Loew said.
