Congressman’s brother dies

Huntington Beach Rep. Dana Rohrabacher’s older brother, Kim, died this morning of complications from cancer at Fountain Valley General Hospital, the congressman’s office said.

Kim Rohrabacher, the congressman’s only sibling, was 62. He served eight years in the Marine Corps and later worked as a transportation specialist, mainly for Northrop Aircraft.

Rep. Rohrabacher flew in from Washington, D.C., Wednesday night to be with his brother, whom he said was known for his “generosity and charitable spirit.”

Kim Rohrabacher was divorced and had no children. Funeral arrangements are pending.
