Statement from Senate President Peter Courtney

On Passing of Former Senator Lenn Hannon

“A great one is gone. I loved Lenn Hannon. He was a man of integrity who never stopped working for Oregon and her people. He was more than a colleague. He was my friend. I’ve missed him since the day he left the Legislature. Now he’s left us all and we miss him more than ever.”
