We are sad to report that our friend and colleague John Richardson has passed away. While he’s become familiar recently as one of the contributors on our weekly Political Brew segment, John has long been a fixture on Maine’s political stage.

We often remark that the Legislature is one big family. Sadly, we have lost an important member of that family with the sudden passing of John Richardson. From his time as a State Representative, as Maine’s Commissioner of the Dept of Economic and Community Development
