DescriptionDawn Clark Netsch was the best kind of feminist.

The kind who broke countless political barriers. The kind who inspired young women. The kind who committed for the long haul and never gave up.

Netsch paved a way for women as she sought larger goals: advancing civil rights and promoting a government that is truly ethical, fair and just.

It is for that plucky and determined effort, along with her many firsts as a woman, that we deeply mourn the passing of the Netsch, our state’s great friend and leader.

Dawn Clark Netsch died Tuesday morning from complications from ALS. She was 86 years old.
