U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS— Governor Albert Bryan Jr issued the following statement Tuesday mourning the passing of former longtime senator Alicia “Chucky” Hansen:
“With heavy hearts, we mourn the loss of former Senator Alicia ‘Chucky’ Hansen, a distinguished and long-serving member of the Virgin Islands Legislature. Chucky was a fearless advocate for the people of the Virgin Islands, a true champion, and an unwavering voice for her constituents. Her presence in our political arena was a testament to her strength and determination, making her a formidable political opponent.
Beyond politics, Chucky was a trusted supporter and advisor to me, and for that, I am deeply grateful. Her counsel was invaluable, and her friendship cherished. We will forever remember her as a tireless advocate and a dedicated public servant. My heartfelt condolences go out to her family during this difficult time.”
