Former Gov. Kenny Guinn, who served during Nevada’s most explosive growth, leading with a pragmatic streak and fierce determination to do what was right rather than what more partisan elements in his party thought, has died.
The Governor had a major hand in making what Nevada and Las Vegas specifically, what it is today. When a lot of people look back at his accomplishments they have said that he was one of the best statesmen the state has ever had.
He will be missed by many.
Full results of the cause of death might not be known for several weeks.
