Statement from Governor Murphy on the Passing of Assemblyman Jerry Green

04/19/2018

"Tammy and I are extremely saddened to learn of the passing of Assemblyman Jerry Green, whose advocacy and love for Union County and his home of Plainfield was unquestioned. While Jerry could be tough as nails, he was also a gentleman, whose bigger-than-New Jersey smile and quiet humor could easily light up a room. He was nice to me during the early years when he didn't need to be, and I am proud to have called him my friend. Our condolences go out to his family, friends, and colleagues in the Legislature. He was one of a kind."
