Gov. Little comments on passing of Stephen Hartgen

Boise, Idaho - Governor Brad Little commented today on the passing of former House member and Twin Falls Times News editor and publisher Stephen Hartgen.

"Steve was a colleague and friend who served with distinction in the Idaho House of Representatives. He was a steady leader and icon of Twin Falls, having served as editor and publisher of The Times News and in numerous economic development roles. A well-educated man, he passionately shared his opinions on important issues facing our state - right up until the days before he died. Idaho and the Magic Valley are better today because of Steve's contributions. Teresa and I send our condolences to Steve's wife, Linda Wright Hartgen, who is serving now as a member of the Idaho House of Representatives, and their five children," Governor Little said.
