Pelosi Statement on the Death of Dana Reeve

Washington, D.C.– House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement this morning on the death of Dana Reeve:

“Today I offer my heartfelt condolences to Dana Reeve’s family and friends.  Her death, coming so soon after the death of her husband Christopher, is a source of deep sadness for so many – both to those of us who knew her, and those who admired her work and her values.    

“Dana Reeve used the great personal challenge of her husband’s paralysis to work so that other families would not have to endure the same pain.  By bringing hope to the sick and disabled with the miraculous potential of stem cell research, she has helped to continue the mending and renewing of the world that is possible through science. 

“I hope it is a comfort to the Reeve family that so many people share their loss and are praying for them at this sad time.”
