Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) announced that his wife Rhonda died on Thursday. It's unknown what caused her death, but Massie said she had visited Mount Rainier with him and other family members last week.
"Yesterday my high school sweetheart, the love of my life for over 35 years, the loving mother of our 4 children, the smartest kindest woman I ever knew, my beautiful and wise queen forever, Rhonda went to Heaven," Massie said. "Thank you for your prayers for our family in this difficult time."
"She was valedictorian at our high school where we went to the Prom together, accepted at MIT and Harvard, earned a Mechanical Engineering degree from MIT, and devoted her life to our family," Massie added. "We spent last week touring Mt Rainier with our grandson — she was the best mammaw ever! We love you Rhonda."
Sen. Rand Paul’s (R-KY) wife Kelley offered her condolences.
“Rhonda was a brilliant woman and a beautiful soul. She brought love and joy to all who knew her. Rand and I are praying for you and your family Thomas,” she wrote.
Gov. Andy Beshear (D-KY) also supported Massie in his grief.
