Statement From Assembly Minority Leader Brian M. Kolb (R,C-Canandaigua)

I was saddened to learn of the passing of Edward Cardinal Egan, who was a beacon of hope, spirit and faith for New Yorkers and our country. His Eminence led with virtue and compassion, especially following the events of September 11, 2001, as he helped New Yorkers heal during a time of great sorrow. The legacy Cardinal Egan left on the Roman Catholic faith will forever be felt. I extend my deepest condolences to Cardinal Egan's family and friends during this time of mourning.
