“I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of the Honorable Lieutenant Governor Sheila Oliver. The Choose New Jersey team and I extend our condolences to the Oliver family and our colleagues in state government on such a tremendous loss. Lieutenant Governor Oliver was a public servant who served with honor and dignity every day of her career. A trailblazer and a true New Jerseyan, she exemplified what is possible, could relate to the social struggles of all cultures, and was an inspiration to many. We will miss seeing her smile, positive attitude, and her inspiring words to our team and our mission. May God bless her memory, her family, and may we all emulate the example of service and mission of our late Lieutenant Governor.”
