But now, the 64-year-old is taking to social media for another, more personal, and much sadder reason. Cuomo’s former senior policy advisor Sidney Wolf was killed in a tragic highway accident in Delaware over the weekend. According to the New York Post, the fatal incident happened after Wolf and five other friends were picked up by a Lyft driver. An altercation, the details of which is not known at this time, transpired, and the vehicle’s occupants, including Wolf, were forced out on the highway, where the dad of two was struck by another passing vehicle. He did not survive the impact.

He went on to share, “Sid was a phenomenal public servant who worked relentlessly for the betterment of all NY’ers.”
Cuomo added that he was thinking about Wolf’s wife, Lindsey and his “two young daughters.” Finally, the longtime politician shared a link to an article about the accident and a GoFundMe page that had raised nearly $62,000 for the family at time of writing.
