Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan's brother dies of COVID-19 [View all]
http://www.startribune.com/minnesota-lt-gov-peggy-flanagan-s-brother-dies-of-covid-19/569024192/Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan’s brother has died after contracting COVID-19.
The lieutenant governor said her brother Ron, who lived in Tennessee, was diagnosed with cancer several weeks ago and his immune system was compromised when he got the coronavirus.
“To many, he’ll be a statistic: Tennessee’s second COVID-related death. But to me, I’ll remember a loving, older brother, uncle, father, and husband,” Flanagan wrote in an Instagram post Sunday.
She urged people to stay home to protect people like her brother.
