Yesterday during Governor Murphy's Coronavirus Media Briefing, he acknowledged the passing of former NJSBOE President Mark Biedron.
The Govenor stated, "Secondly, this one is personal, a very good friend of mine, Mark Biedron who died of ALS, by the way, on Friday. He's a former president of the New Jersey State Board of Education. He was a good friend. He was a great guy. His wife Christie reached out to me and asked if I could speak with him. We had our last conversation on July 29th of this year. I reached out and left a message for Christie this morning. Mark was a giant."
