Thank you for your post.

I especially appreciate the summation:

“On July 4, 1826, on the fiftieth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the two died within hours of each other. Unaware that Jefferson had just died, Adams’ last words were “Thomas Jefferson survives.”

Although the two had many differences and fought often, one thing we can learn from Thomas Jefferson and John Adams is that no matter how big the fight, true friends can always find a way to work things out.”

“Jefferson advocated for the rights of states, while Adams, a Federalist, supported a strong national government.”
