Statement r on the Loss of State Senator Edward J. Kennedy
Statement from Senate Minority Leader Bruce Tarr on the Loss
of State Senator Edward J. Kennedy:
“Senator Ed Kennedy was a gentleman, a dedicated public
servant, an unyielding champion for the people of the city of Lowell and the
towns of Dracut, Dunstable, Pepperell and Tyngsborough, and a friend.
He was a true partner in the Senate as we worked together to
lead efforts to improve the health of the Merrimack River, to prevent harm to
circus animals, to strengthen our state’s tourism sector, and other shared
priorities.
Ed’s passing is a great loss for the Senate, and for all of
us fortunate enough to count him as a friend. I extend my deepest condolences
to his family, and all of those in a district he represented with such
commitment and pride.”
