Congressman Tim Murphy (PA-18) weighed in with a heavy heart on the passing of local legislator J. Barry Stout, who died at his home in Bentleyville Saturday evening. He was 79. Barry served for decades in state-elected government roles, both in the Pennsylvania House and Senate.

“I am forever grateful that Barry’s desk and mine were side by side on the State Senate floor. Right from the onset, he was a true mentor and quick to offer honest, trustworthy advice on issues and legislation impacting Washington and Greene Counties. But Barry would never try to influence me to do something that was not good for my Senate district,” said Murphy. “It was never about partisan politics with Barry; it was about what would most benefit our constituents. His level of honesty and camaraderie was invaluable to me, his constituents, and to the Pennsylvania Senate. It’s a model of governing that is sorely needed but sadly, rapidly disappearing.”

Known for being a champion of transportation and infrastructure projects in the State Senate for decades, Murphy said Sen. Stout was “a fierce fighter for those projects, yet he was always respectful in his dealings with other members.” He continued, stating, “Barry will be missed, but he left a lasting legacy by his many projects, both that bear his name, and his influence, to see them through to completion on behalf of his constituents.”

Murphy attended services in Bentleyville the following week to pay respects to the Stout family and to honor of Senator Stout’s lifelong service to the community.
