Gov. Mike Dunleavy and First Lady Rose Dunleavy issued the following statement on the passing of former Alaska State Representative Patrick ‘Pat’ Carney, who served in the Alaska State Legislature from 1979-1982 and 1991-1994.

“Pat Carney was a leader who made meaningful contributions in the Mat-Su Valley and the state as a whole.
