A lasting legacy…The Honorable J. Barry Stout
In Memorium…The Honorable J. Barry Stout
State Sen. J. Barry Stout, longtime legislator, family man and one of the best friends the transportation industry ever had, died Saturday at the age of 79 at his home in Bentleyville.
“His passing is a great loss to his constituents and to the Commonwealth as a whole,” said PHIA Managing Director Jason Wagner. “He had many, many noteworthy accomplishments, and his support for the transportation industry in his role as Democratic Chair of the Senate Transportation Committee was just stellar. Our thoughts and sympathy are with his family.”
Stout received PHIA’s highest honor–The Transportation Advocate of the Year Award–in 1998. Stout also was a honorary lifetime members of the organization and frequent participant in the association’s activities.
