SARATOGA SPRINGS >More than a thousand people waited patiently last week for a few seconds with former U.S. secretary of state and possible presidential candidate Hillary Clinton at her book signing in Saratoga Springs.
One of those who stood in line that day considers Clinton a good friend — and he’s only 10 years old.
Clinton has known Brendan Torrey of Clifton Park since he was born. He vaguely recalls meeting her as a 3-year-old but vividly recalls meeting her at his grandfather’s wedding three years ago. So when he walked up to the table where the former first lady was signing books, stuck out his hand and announced his name, it was no surprise that it brought a smile and warm response from Clinton.
“She said, ‘Hi Brendan. How are you feeling?’” Torrey said.
Clinton came to Northshire Bookstore in Saratoga Springs July 29 to sign copies of her latest book, “Hard Choices.” The book signing was a controlled event with pre-purchase of the book required for admission, a limited number of tickets released for the signing, and a large show of security.
Despite all that Torrey, his mother and a family friend,retired Orenda Elementary School Principal Ann Frantti, took a chance that they could get their copy of the book signed by Clinton.
Torrey is the son of Barry and Tiffany Torrey and the grandson of Marty Torrey, chief of staff for former U.S. Rep. John Sweeney. Clinton met Marty Torrey in Washington when he was working for Sweeney. They have remained friends ever since.
