Juneau, Alaska (KINY) - Anton McParland, Chief of Staff for Representative Mary Peltola, has released a follow-up statement after the passing of Peltola's husband, Eugene Peltola Jr.
Here is the following statement:
“We are truly grateful for the kindness that Mary and her family have received since Buzzy’s passing yesterday. Senator Sullivan's Chief of Staff was on the phone with us offering support early in the morning. Both Senators' District Directors called to share comfort and advice based upon their years of service working for Alaskans in Congress. Senator Murkowski and her team jumped into action providing staff support to both our Anchorage and DC offices. Governor Dunleavy's office received the news with great sympathy and the Governor also made his team available to support Mary and our office however they could.
These moments really stood out amidst a difficult time, reminding us of the community bonds that make Alaska so special. We are thankful to them and to everyone who continues to reach out with sympathy and stories about Buzzy. One particularly touching story came from a young man who told us how Buzzy's kindness, mentorship, and compelling life stories remind you of all the qualities you might want in a father. I know Mary and their kids would agree.
Alaska is a tight-knit state that relies on planes for basic travel, and so many Alaskans have felt the impact of an accident like this. That doesn’t make it any less devastating, but it does mean we know how to support one another.
To answer some questions we’ve been receiving: authorities will be investigating this accident as they do with every crash. The NTSB, who work tirelessly to keep our skies safe, briefed us on the process yesterday. We defer all related questions to their team. Out of respect for the family’s privacy, our office will not be commenting any further on the investigation.
Mary is back home with her family, and we want to make sure they get all the messages we are receiving. For those wishing to send condolences, please send them to our district office in Anchorage at 121 W Fireweed Ln Suite 260, 99503.
To everyone who has reached out, from Alaska to D.C. and everywhere in between, thank you. You have made a dark time just a little lighter.”
