My statement on the passing of my predecessor and friend, Bill Frenzel: “Minnesota and America lost a great statesman today – Bill Frenzel represented the absolute best in public service. In representing Minnesota’s 3rd Congressional District for two decades with strong dedication, Bill was widely regarded as somebody with a willingness to bridge divides in Washington and work with colleagues on both sides of the aisle. While many of his personal acquaintances will remember him for his famous ‘Frenzel doodles’, Bill will be especially remembered for his vision and leadership setting a trade agenda that to this day continues to open markets for American products and services that create jobs here at home. Bill was a good friend and mentor to me, and I will miss our conversations over coffee where he would share the years of wisdom and insight he gained during his tenure in public service. My thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Ruthie, his daughters, and family.”
