ATLANTA – Speaker David Ralston (R-Blue Ridge) released the following statement concerning the passing of State Representative Bob Bryant(D-Garden City)

 

“I join with my colleagues in the Georgia House of Representatives this morning in mourning the passing of our colleague and friend, Representative Bob Bryant.

Our hearts are hurting today because we have lost one of our best.

Bob Bryant was a man of principle and integrity. He had the courage of his convictions and he never allowed anything to get in the way of doing the right thing. We will miss his kind and gentle spirit and the gift of his friendship.

Georgia has lost a great leader. Savannah and Chatham County have lost a determined and dedicated advocate. The House has lost a calm voice of reason and as fine a role model of public service as we could know. We have lost a truly good friend who made serving in the House a joy.

I know I speak for each member when I say we will miss Bob Bryant.”
