Former Connecticut Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman dies; flags lowered to half-staff

Дата публикации: 12-08-2026 10:09:44



Former Connecticut Lt. Governor Nancy Wyman has died at 80, Gov. Ned Lamont’s office confirmed on Wednesday.
Lamont announced Wyman’s death Wednesday morning and ordered that U.S. and state flags on Connecticut state government buildings be lowered to half-staff, effective immediately.
Wyman served as the 108th lieutenant governor under Gov. Dannel Malloy from 2011 to 2019 and as state comptroller from 1995 to 2011. She previously represented the 53rd Assembly District and began her public service career on the Tolland Board of Education.
She was also the first woman elected state comptroller in Connecticut.
“Nancy Wyman was a good friend to me, a good friend to Democrats, and a good friend to the people of Connecticut,” Lamont said.
Luke Bronin, who won the Democratic nomination in Connecticut’s 1st Congressional District on Tuesday night, said “it was an honor to work with” Wyman while she served.
“Nancy Wyman had one of the biggest hearts of anyone I’ve ever met, and there are few people who do this work with greater compassion, more care, or a deeper commitment to making people’s lives better,” Bronin said. “It was an honor to work with her in the Malloy-Wyman administration, and she was a mentor and a friend, as she was to so many people.”
Lt. Gov. Susan Bysiewicz called Wyman a “trailblazing political leader” and mentor.
“Connecticut has lost a little sparkle today, and I know of no one that can fill her stilettos,” Bysiewicz said.
Sen. Stephen Harding called Wyman “classy. Smart. Tough. Humble,” on behalf of the Senate Republican Caucus.
“Lt. Gov. Wyman loved Connecticut,” Harding said. “She dedicated decades of her life to public service and helping people in ways large and small. We are all grateful for that service.”
State Comptroller Sean Scanlon said Wyman’s work “changed lives.”
Senate leaders Martin Looney and Bob Duff remembered Wyman as a longtime friend and dedicated public servant.
“Nancy was a kind, thoughtful, and generous friend, high-spirited and quick-witted. She also had great exuberance and loved to dance,” Looney said.
Flags will remain at half-staff until sunset on the date of Wyman’s interment, which has not yet been announced.
