Essex County Sheriff Armando Fontoura released the following statement on the death of Lieutenant Governor Sheila Oliver:
“I am so sorry to hear about the passing of the Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey Sheila Oliver. She was a dear friend and mentor to me for over 35 years. She will be greatly missed. I had the privilege of being on the ballot with Sheila on a few occasions. She took me by the hand and showed me how to campaign by being consistent with my messaging and by being true to myself and my convictions. No one worked harder than Sheila Oliver. She was a champion for her constituents.”
