LANSING – Frank Kelley, Michigan’s “eternal general” whose 37 years in office made him the longest-serving attorney general in Michigan history, has died at age 96.
Kelley died late Friday night at an assisted living home in Naples, Florida, where he had moved in 2020; he had been ill for some time, his family said in a news release. Kelley s death was due to natural causes and not related to COVID-19, said family spokesman and former Attorney General s Office spokesman Chris De Witt.
Kelley, a Democrat who made consumer protection one of his trademark issues, played a major role in environmental protection in Michigan and helped to pass into law the Michigan Open Meetings Act and Michigan Freedom of Information Act.
