City of Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small, Sr. has issued the following statement on the passing of his Chief of Staff Ernest D. Coursey, Sr.:
“Today, the Great City of Atlantic City lost an icon. Ernest Coursey worked at City Hall for 39 plus years of stellar service, from the Clerk’s Office to becoming Deputy Mayor and then my Chief of Staff. He was also a longtime county commissioner and longtime 3rd Ward Atlantic City councilman. This is a major loss, and that is an understatement. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Coursey family and all of us here in the Great City of Atlantic City. Words can’t begin to describe the devastating loss this is to our organization.”
