WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) today issued the following statement after the passing of Keith Wendell Mull:

“Keith was a man of integrity, hard work, faith and love for his family. Like so many of the Greatest Generation, he served in World War II and continued a lifetime of service by advocating for his community, whether that be on the school board, as a leader in his church, through the Farm Bureau or any of the many causes he dedicated his time and energy. Keith and I often reflected on when I announced my first run for the state legislature in his living room. I respected Keith greatly, as did many Kansans, and feel fortunate to have called him a friend.

“Robba and I extend our heartfelt condolences to Keith’s family and friends. Though he has left us, it is my hope that he has once again joined his wife Marian and the loved ones he tragically lost nearly eight years ago.”
