Today, Governor Kim Reynolds issued the following statement on the passing of Iowa State Senator Rocky De Witt of Woodbury County, IA:
“Kevin and I are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of a dear colleague and friend, Senator Rocky De Witt. Rocky spent a life dedicated to serving his neighbors in Northwest Iowa as a member of the Woodbury County Sheriff’s Office before representing his constituents on the board of supervisors and, eventually, the Iowa State Senate. In just three years, Rocky made a profound impact in the state legislature, all while heroically battling cancer. Rocky was a dedicated husband and a loving father and grandfather. His family and friends remain in our prayers.”
