Description | Walter J. Kavanaugh, who served in the Legislature for 32 years until his retirement yesterday, passed away tonight after a long illness. He was 74. Kavanaugh served in the State Assembly from 1976 to 1998, and in the Senate for the last ten years.
"He was a good husband, a great father and mentor to so many," said his longtime friend, Somerset County Republican Chairman Dale Florio. "His humor kept us from taking politics too seriously. He goods deeds will be remembered forever."
Senate Minority Leader Thomas Kean, Jr. said that "Walter's quick wit ensured that even the driest budget hearing had its humorous points." |
