Statement From Assembly Minority Leader Brian M. Kolb On The Passing Of Governor Mario Cuomo

"Deepest sympathies are extended to the Cuomo family as they mourn the passing of Governor Mario Cuomo. Their loss is felt across the state and nation, as we honor an individual whose intelligence, grace and leadership will forever be remembered.

As a three-term governor, Mario Cuomo dedicated his life to the people of this great state. His remarkable journey from humble beginnings to his place as a national political icon embodies the spirit of American achievement.

Our collective thoughts and prayers are with Governor Andrew Cuomo and his loved ones. They have lost a father and patriarch, while New York has lost a distinguished leader who brought honor to the Empire State."
