Statement from House Speaker Tim Jones
Regarding the Passing of John Britton
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – House Speaker Tim Jones issued the following statement regarding the passing of John Britton:
“It was with immense sadness that I absorbed the news of the passing of my friend and a friend to so many, John Britton. Through his decades of work within the halls of the State Capitol and across the State of Missouri, he became an iconic figure who set the standard by which all other lobbyists are measured. Our state will deeply miss this great man who was a war hero, a scholar, a philosopher, and a defender of the individual liberties of all Missourians. My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family as they mourn his loss.”
