Former Republican gubernatorial candidate Lew Rome died Wednesday.
Long time Connecticut political reporters will remember him as a challenger to former Governor William O’Neill(D) in 1982. In the years since that campaign, Rome was known as a top lawyer/lobbyist in Hartford for the law firm of Rome McGuigan and the lobbying firm of Rome, Smith and Lutz.
We offer our condolences to the Rome family, his many friends and colleagues.
