Gov. Reynolds issues statement on the passing of Iowa Senator Rocky De Witt 

DES MOINES— 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.”
