CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WVDN) – Governor Patrick Morrisey issued the following statement upon hearing of the passing of former delegate, Dr. Margaret Staggers:
“West Virginia has lost a dedicated public servant. A physician and member of the House of Delegates, Dr. Margaret Staggers devoted her life to caring for others and serving the people of West Virginia.
“From serving as President of the West Virginia chapter of the American College of Emergency Physicians to her work with the American Heart Association, Dr. Staggers brought compassion and expertise to every role she held. Her service as a physician, educator, and legislator leaves a lasting legacy, especially in southern West Virginia, where she was widely respected by both her patients and constituents.
“Denise and I extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, and colleagues. Dr. Staggers will be forever remembered with great appreciation.”
