Edward E. Willey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Edward E. Willey (died July 17, 1986) of Richmond, Virginia was a pharmacist who was a State Senator from 1952 to 1983 and served as Senate Majority Leader in the Virginia General Assembly. He was also the father-in-law of Kathleen Willey, who was a figure in the Lewinsky scandal in 1998 (after the death of both Willey and his son, Edward E. Willey Jr., her former husband).

The Edward E. Willey Bridge on State Route 150 which carries Chippenham Parkway across the James River and links the City of Richmond with western Henrico County was named in his honor.
