Nagpaabot ng pakikiramay si Speaker Ferdinand Martin Romualdez sa naulilang pamilya at constituents ni Dasmariñas City Rep. Elpidio Barzaga Jr.
“We are deeply saddened by Cong Pidi’s passing. The House of Representatives has just lost a great legal thinker and a smart number-cruncher,” ayon kay Speaker Romualdez.
Sinabi ni Speaker Romualdez na maaalala nito at ng kanyang mga kasamahan sa Kongreso si Barzaga bilang isang kasama na mahihingan ng payong legal at kung papaano maiintindihan ang budget ng gobyerno.
Si Barzaga ay isang CPA- lawyer.
“I myself consulted him on a number of legal issues. He was always lending a helping hand. We will also remember him as an indefatigable lawmaker who made it a point to attend sessions and participate actively in committee hearings with extensive preparations,” sabi pa ni Speaker Romualdez.
“Our prayers and thoughts go to Cong. Pidi’s family, especially his wife Mayor Jenny Barzaga, his sons and his constituents,” dagdag pa ng lider ng Kamara.
