Assemblyman Alex DeCroce, June 10, 1936 – January 9, 2012
An emotional Governor Chris Christie and First Lady Mary Pat Christie walk by Assemblyman Alex DeCroce’s empty desk in the Assembly Chambers after addressing a joint legislature in honor of Assemblyman DeCroce. “He fought for his beloved colleagues, for his steadfast principles, for his belief in this chamber and for the people he was elected to serve until the very last moments of his life. When his work was done last night, the Lord took Alex, still hard at work on behalf of the state, still giving his all to the people of New Jersey. And we know that He took him in peace and will care for him gently in the palm of His hand. God bless the good and kind soul of Alex DeCroce.” Governor Christie
