Florio Tribute: Richard Codey

State Sen. and former Gov. Richard Codey (D-Roseland) issued the following statement on the death of former Governor Jim Florio:

“Governor Florio served with distinction at each level of office he reached. He always did a great job on gun safety, and I was proud to have worked with him on that. There was never any hint of scandal around him; his integrity was never in question and never needed to be. May God give him the handshake he deserves for a life well served.”
