WASHINGTON (KRQE) - Rep. Ben Ray Luján issued the following statement on the passing of former Gov. Bruce King.
“Last night we lost a great man and a true champion for the people of New Mexico.
Governor Bruce King and his wife Alice served our state honorable and proudly. Governor King was a true asset to the state and a role model for many.
Governor King was a governor of the people. He was always approachable, and he always reached out to the people of New Mexico with an open hand. Throughout his entire tenure in public service he remembered his roots and the people he served.
He was a dear friend of my family and someone I deeply admired. I send my deepest condolences to the family of Governor Bruce King.
My thoughts and prayers, along with those of all New Mexicans,
are with the family at this difficult time. We will miss you,
Bruce.”
