The husband of Florida's Senate President has died after suffering "massive trauma" in an accident while hiking with his wife in Utah.
Senate President Pro-Tempore Dennis Baxley confirmed the news in a memo to members of the Senate, saying that the former attorney, Naples City Council member and husband of Kathleen Passidomo was taken from the trail by ambulance and then flown to a trauma center, but succumbed to his injuries on Wednesday.
Among those sharing their condolences was Governor DeSantis, who writes that his and wife Casey's "thoughts are with Kathleen and her family as they grieve this loss."
John Passidomo was 72.
