Memphis Mayor Willie Herenton has taken the podium and is giving some gracious remarks. He congratulated Myron Lowery and wished him the "utmost success."
"It's a tremendously important leadership role fraught with all kinds of perils," Herenton said. "At the end of the day, the citizens expect the city to work. The infrastructure has got to be made strong. The garbage has to be picked up."
Herenton said he feels certain Lowery and his staff can keep the government working.
Lowery is now being sworn in. His wife is standing by his side.
