Statement on the Passing of Pat Toro

Last week we lost one of the strongest and most ardent advocates for veterans I have ever met, Pat Toro.  His devotion and commitment to our country and to the needs of our veterans will always be admired.

I was blessed to have worked with Pat as a City Councilman and as a State Senator. I will never forget his tenacity and compassion for working towards improving the lives of all veterans. May God bless Pat Toro and his family.
