Congressman Morgan Griffith (R-VA) released the following statement after learning of the passing of American country music singer George Jones:

“Like many country music fans throughout the United States, I am saddened to learn of the passing of country legend George Jones.  I had front-section tickets to see him live on April 20 as a birthday gift from my wife, and hoped to see him at the rescheduled May 9 concert.  George Jones’ stirring voice has gone silent, but like hundreds of thousands of fans, I will not stop listening to his albums and CDs.”
