Update: Statement from Indiana Republican Chairman Murray Clark -
“As the chairman of the Lake County Republican Party and the 1st District Republican Chairman, John Curley never met a challenge he wasn’t prepared to tackle. It was uniquely hard work, but he was always up to the job. John Curley was a good man whose service to Winfield Township, Lake County, and the state of Indiana serves as a model for all of us.”
“But as much as he will be remembered for his politics, he will be honored equally for his accomplishments in business. Through hard work, determination, and a strong focus on customer service, he grew his small masonry supply business to be one of the largest in the state.”
“No matter how you knew him, John Curley will be remembered for his friendly personality and his dedication to family and public service. Republicans across the state are in mourning today for the sudden loss of a good friend to many and indeed one of our most stalwart leaders. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, especially his wife, Janet.”
