David was a one and only - we miss him already.

David Tomassoni was a courageous and wonderful human, a damn good legislator,but my favorite memory of him will be this, belting out a wild “Mack the Knife” at the Mancini’s Iron Range party, back when we could all do such things!

Toivo, now God will get both versions of those stories you love to tell. Hope you weren’t stretching the truth, cause Guido’s on his way to set the record straight.

A very sad day for the Denver Hockey community. He will forever be remembered as the person who helped inspire the Pioneers to win the 2022 national title, saying during DU’s trip to UMD last year: “When you play in the national championship game, win the fucking thing!”

I’ll enjoy this drive the rest of my life. Good job Guido, still bringing it all back home from the other side. Thank you Dave Lislegard and Grant Hauschild

Senator David Tomassoni was a proud Iron Ranger through and through. It’s only fitting that we honor this giant by renaming the stretch of Highway 169 between Marble and Mountain Iron – a highway he fought hard to make safer for Minnesotans.

A Republican Twin Cities Senator, Karin Housley, wants to steal the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame from the Iron Range. We can’t let that happen, which is why I’ll be working to stop any state dollars going towards the steal #mnleg mesabitribune.com/opinion/keep-t…
