Former NJ Gov. Richard Codey, the longest-serving legislator in state history who had two brief stints leading the state, has died aged 79 after a brief battle with an unspecified illness. “Our family has lost a beloved husband, father, and grandfather — and New Jersey lost a remarkable public servant who touched the lives of all who knew him,” a statement put out by his family Sunday read in part.
