that “Like thousands of Alaskans, Julie and I are shocked and heartbroken by the sudden passing of Ben Stevens. Ben was a wise, true friend to us and to so many across our state. He was a fiercely loyal husband and father to his wonderful family. He was a true public servant who loved Alaska with all of his heart and always fought with Ted Stevens-like zeal for our state’s interests.”
Sullivan’s post continues, ”We will all miss Ben greatly. Our deepest condolences go out to his family, particularly his wonderful wife, Elizabeth, and their incredible children. Our prayers are with you all and with so many Alaskans who knew and loved him.” A statement from Sen. Tom Begich released by Alaska Senate Democrats reads, “Ben made his place known in Alaska politics. There were times we agreed and many times we sparred on policy. He was a bulldog, but when it came down to it, we always had the ability to work with one another to determine how best to move this great state forward. Ben helped shape Alaska as Chief of Staff to the Governor, as Senate President, as an activist, and as an Alaskan.
