MAYNILA. Pumanaw na sa edad na 82 si Albay 1st District Representative Edcel Lagman nitong Huwebes, Enero 30, ayon sa kanyang anak na si Tabaco City Mayor Krisel Lagman.
Ayon kay Mayor Lagman, binawian ng buhay ang beteranong mambabatas dakong 5:01 ng hapon dahil sa cardiac arrest.
“He left this world the way he lived his life – with integrity, compassion, and fearlessness. He fought until the end with the dogged determination, tenacity, and unshakable hopefulness that defined all that he stood for,” pahayag ng kanyang anak.
Dagdag pa niya, “He will be remembered and honored by his family, friends, and colleagues as a remarkable and generous father; a warm, thoughtful, and loving brother, uncle and lolo; a true and loyal friend; and an upright, principled, and unwavering advocate of human rights and the rule of law.”
Si Lagman ay kilalang tagapagtanggol ng karapatang pantao at tapat na tagapagtaguyod ng batas. Bukod sa kanyang matagal na paglilingkod bilang kongresista, siya rin ang kasalukuyang presidente ng Liberal Party.
Ang mga detalye tungkol sa kanyang burol at parangal ay ilalabas sa mga susunod na araw.
