FORMER OBERSTAR STAFFER DIES

The man who was Congressman Jim Oberstar's chief of staff until 1992 died Saturday. Tom Reagan was 81 and died after suffering a stroke the day before. Regan grew up in Crosby and worked in an iron mine while he was in high school. He was a WWII veteran and was a teacher in Aurora-Hoyt Lakes before he started working for Oberstar. Regan managed the congressman's first successful campaign for the US House in 1974. Oberstar said Reagan dedicated his life to public service and focused on serving Minnesotans instead of becoming a political insider.
