Chamber Releases Statement Regarding the Passing of Former Governor Kenny Guinn

LAS VEGAS - Today, Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce Chairman Kristin McMillan released the following statement regarding the passing of former Governor Kenny Guinn:

"On behalf of the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce and our 6,000 business members, we are saddened by the sudden passing of former Governor Kenny Guinn.  Kenny Guinn leaves a rich legacy of service to his community as a business leader, an educator and a two-term governor.  He was passionate about Nevada and embodied the independent spirit of the Silver State, and he always put the needs of Nevadans first.  He was also a gentle man who enjoyed people and made them feel special.

"Our thoughts are with Mrs. Guinn and the entire Guinn family.  We appreciate their generosity in sharing precious family time with the people of Nevada, and we are certain they are justifiably proud of the many contributions Governor Guinn made to the state that he honorably served."
