Prezioso
FAIRMONT â Sharon Lansdale, president and CEO of the Center for Rural Health Development, said former West Virginia Senator Roman Prezioso was an advocate for health care in West Virginia throughout his tenure in office.
She said he supported the organization when it was starting out as well as several of its initiatives to help rural West Virginians find access to health care.
âDuring Sen. Preziosoâs tenure at the legislature, he was always one person that was willing to listen and consider the issues any time we brought forth an issue,â Lansdale said. âWe were starting back in the early 2000s a loan fund. Sen. Prezioso and others in the legislature really stepped up and said, âWe need this in West Virginia.ââ
