On Kenny Guinn's passing


Published on Tuesday, July 27, 2010 10:14 PM PDT

Few people in life have the innate capacity to warm a room, inspire a crowd, while retaining an authentic willingness to dedicate their lives to something beyond themselves...former Nevada Governor Kenny Guinn had just that. Despite having the opportunity of meeting the man only twice, I am confidant in saying: his absence is surely OUR loss.
