Republican former legislator Bill Konopnicki died Wednesday evening.
The Eastern Arizona Courier published a story early Wednesday detailing Konopnicki’s rapidly deteriorating health due to non-alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver.
Twitter is alive with remembrances of him from all across the political spectrum, and the non-political world as well.
Robbie Sherwood, a former reporter for The Arizona Republic, remembers Konopnicki as “old school” in that he came up through local service organizations, not party organizations, and that perspective affected his activities at the Capitol.
