The community is mourning the loss of former Senate President Tom Birmingham, who died on Jan. 20, 2023, at the age of 73. Mr. Birmingham represented Revere in the Senate following his election to the seat in 1990. He succeeded Sen. Fran Doris as Revere's senator and was elected Senate president in 1996 and served as the leader of the esteemed body until stepping down in 2003. Current Revere officials spoke fondly of Mr. Birmingham, who grew up in Chelsea and graduated from Harvard College and Harvard Law School and was a Rhodes Scholar.
