STATEMENT FROM A.G. SCHNEIDERMAN ON THE PASSING OF STANFORD LIPSEY
NEW YORK – Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman issued the following statement on the passing of Stanford Lipsey, publisher of The Buffalo News:
My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Buffalo community as we mourn the loss of Stanford Lipsey. Anyone who met Stan knows that he cared deeply about Buffalo, and that his philanthropic efforts permanently transformed the region. Stan’s shared concern about the opioid crisis, reflected in deep and thoughtful coverage by the Buffalo News, helped usher in meaningful reform efforts that are saving lives every day. Let’s continue to become better neighbors and citizens in honor of Stan—whose tireless activism proved that our work to create a better New York never ends.
