Top Colorado Republican lawmaker died suddenly only days after turning 55, 'fiercely passionate' leader was 'adored'

Colorado House Minority Leader Hugh McKean died suddenly at his Loveland home on Sunday. He celebrated his birthday on Oct. 27, only days before his sudden death.

The Colorado House GOP caucus confirmed McKean’s "sudden" death.

"It is with great sadness we announce the sudden passing of House Minority Leader Hugh McKean," the official Twitter account for the Colorado House Republicans stated. "Hugh was fiercely passionate about serving the great state of Colorado and will be missed dearly."

"Hugh was fiercely passionate about two things in his extraordinary life; serving the great state of Colorado and spending time with his family, whom he adored — Aiden McKean, 21, Hanna McKean, 23, and his dearest partner and friend Amy Parks," the statement read, according to Colorado Politics.

"Hugh spoke about Coloradans not in the abstract but as real living people with jobs, loves, and real-life successes and problems," the statement continued. "Families facing hardships were not faceless pie graphs on a page to Hugh. He saw the faces of his own children, of his parents, long-time neighbors, and of Coloradans that he would always call friends. Public service wasn’t a 9-to-5 job for Hugh; he lived life believing good enough would never be enough for those who would live with the consequences of bad government."

Sure are a lot of people dropping dead lately.

Whatever could it be?

We may never know.

“passionate about two things in his extraordinary life; serving the great state of Colorado and spending time with his family”

Maybe that’s backwards?

I hope for his sake, St Peter doesn’t see that.

While not a coroner, it seems to me that the 2 leading causes of death these days are suddenly and unexpectedly. It’s very sad.

Sad... another case of that new ‘suddenitis’ disease.

It obviously was Biden who was “directly responsible” for his death. Pelosi and Schumer were most likely in on it too. I’ll have to check with Meathead Reiner, he must have a grip on the hits and hitmen. He already found out President Trump tried to have Mr. Nanzi killed by a far-left kook with a hammer.

“Nay” vs. “Any”. A bit dyslexic at least with typing I guess. Guess I’ll have to overcome it...

“Sure are a lot of people dropping dead lately.”

And from a new disease called “suddenly”

meanwhile, in Brazil, according to Aljazeera’s brief mention, Bolsonaro was in the lead, his supporters celebrating, but then Lula overtook him, and count is now basically over, waiting for Bolsonaro to concede.

entire Aljazeera coverage I saw (about 15 mins) was Lula is great, a democrat, diplomat, Bolsonaro is a Trump-like autocrat, divider.
