May he rest in peace. Pascrell certainly went through pain prior to passing away.
This is just me but since NJ-09 includes Passaic County which is where the City of Passaic is located, I'd be interested to see a Democratic replacement be located there. My father grew up in Passaic in the 40's and 50's but the city has changed significantly in demographics since his time. Might be ideal to have a representative reflect how NJ-09 is these days.
Bill Pascrell was a great guy. So in 2000 i was getting married. I worked for a Democratic Member and was leaving that day for my wedding. I went to vote with my boss and as we left started talking with Bill Pascrell and told him i was leaving to get married. He told me some stories about his wedding. He wish me luck and two weeks later saw me in the Rayburn hallway and asked how things went.

This was published this morning, so it appears Democrats have until a week from tomorrow to name a replacement.

Sorry to hear. I always had the feeling that he was a good Representative and good person.
