THE FLORIDA DEMOCRATIC PARTY MOURNS THE LOSS OF BOB GRAHAM

Today, Florida mourns the loss of Bob Graham, who served as Governor of Florida from 1979–1987 and as a United States Senator from 1987–2005. In response, the Florida Democratic Party has issued the following statement:

“There are no words that can fully capture what Bob Graham meant to the state of Florida. A giant in Florida politics, Bob set the standard for every elected official who followed — both Democrat and Republican. He lived a life most of us could only dream of, one where he impacted the lives of millions with an unparalleled heart for service and a moral compass that always pointed true. Our hearts go out to Adele, Gwen, and the entire Graham family as they mourn their loss and celebrate his incredible life.

“Part of the DNA of every Florida Democrat is living up to the example Bob Graham set for us. As we honor his legacy, may we all love and serve Florida the way he did — with a twinkle in our eyes and a curiosity for things unknown.”
