St. Louis County issues statement on passing of Tom Rukavina
Following the news of the death of Commissioner Tom Rukavina, St. Louis County Administrator Kevin Gray stated the following:
"We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Tom Rukavina. As a commissioner and former state representative, he was a passionate advocate for the people of his district. His legacy will live on in many places – perhaps the most notable from his time as county commissioner was the establishment of a scholarship fund using iron ore royalties to assist students at community colleges in St. Louis County. Our county is a better place because of Tom’s dedicated service, and we will miss him."
