| Description | Although Richard William Van Wagner's vocation was public service, his passion was coming home to his family, his son said.
"He worked really hard and spent a lot of time in Trenton," said one of his sons, Richard Van Wagner, 41, of Ocean Township. "But I still had a father who ran onto the baseball field with his dress shoes, his slacks and his sport coat and shagged balls in right field."
Van Wagner, a former Democratic state Senator who served for 18 years in the state Legislature for the 13th District, died Saturday morning in Naples, Fla., as a result of complications of emphysema, his son said. He was 70. |
