Governor DeWine Issues Statement on the Death of Former Speaker Batchelder

(COLUMBUS, Ohio)?Ohio Governor Mike DeWine released the following statement regarding the death of former Ohio House Speaker Bill Batchelder:

?Fran and I were saddened upon hearing of the death of former Speaker of the Ohio House Bill Batchelder. A son of Medina County, and a pillar of the Ohio House of Representatives, Ohioans are grateful for his decades of service. Bill was a consummate legislator who helped me as we passed a drunk driving bill in 1982 for which I will always be grateful. I have sought his advice many times over the years. He was a Ronald Reagan Republican ? a classic conservative whose guiding principle was freedom. We send our deepest condolences to Alice, William, and Elizabeth.? ? ?? ??
