The following statement is from Congressman Wm. Lacy Clay on the sudden death of Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones (D-Ohio):
“I am shocked and deeply saddened by the tragic death of my friend, Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones.
She will be remembered as a great legislator and a true fighter for the interests of her constituents.
The people of Cleveland have lost a champion, and I have lost a dear friend.
Mrs. Clay and I send our thoughts and prayers to her family and we pray that God will grant them strength and comfort to bear this heavy burden.”

One of the few times I agree with “my” Congressman. Very sad. She showed us to live life to the fullest every day as none of us knows when it will be our time.
