that we share the news that our friend, colleague, and mentor, Cary Roberts,
passed away on December 3 after a long illness.

many around the Capitol. His experience, integrity, and reputation among state
lawmakers, staff, clients, and fellow legislative consultants were second to
none. Words can’t describe a person like Cary or his impact on each of us.

Cary’s family in your prayers during this difficult time.”
