While any opinion may provoke a negative response from somebody, Pitts was never off base in his columns and more often than not provided a uniquely incisive perspective on critical issues.

Those who aspire to win a lifetime achievement award from QAnon or who deny that race is still an issue in America could always find something to gripe about. His column was a litmus test for decency that some people failed. He will be missed.Leonard Pitts “RIP” — that is, “Retire in Peace,” because, despite having weekly deadlines, he’ll have lots to do in his"retirement."

I shall miss his column from the Miami Herald through the Houston Chronicle. I looked forward to it every week and often saved it for the insightful, challenging, erudite, straightforward — you name it — content.Elizabeth Anderson, Galveston I read with sadness the final column by Leonard Pitts. While happy for him for his retirement, I will miss his column terribly. He is one columnist whose opinions I wholeheartedly agree with, who writes in a clear and effective style, who has provoked more letters to the editor from me than from other issues. Bravo to one of my"hero" writers, enjoy your retirement!
