Idaho First District Congressman Walt Minnick issued the following statement:
“I was saddened to learn that Mr. Magnuson had passed away. Our entire state owes him a debt of gratitude for the leadership and business acumen he showed while North Idaho grew through good times and bad. As a new Congressman, I was looking forward to calling upon him for advice and counsel, but now will look to his example as we try to navigate this country out of these tough times. Harry showed us how it’s done.”
