ATLANTA—Today House Speaker David Ralston (R-Blue Ridge) released the following statement regarding the passing of State Representative Quincy Murphy (D-Augusta):
“With the passing of Quincy Murphy today, the State of Georgia has lost a great leader, those he served in Augusta, Richmond County and Jefferson County have lost a tireless advocate, and I have lost a dear friend. Quincy Murphy spoke with a quiet but powerful voice on behalf of those whom he lifted up each day in his public service. Losing Quincy will leave a real void in the Georgia House of Representatives. I know that each member of the House joins me in expressing our sadness and sympathy to his family and friends.”
