“Cindy and I join our state and nation today to mourn the tremendous loss of Bill Brewster and remember his hard work and devotion to Oklahoma and the United States. Bill was a friend and mentor to many around our state, including me, in how to lead with wisdom, life experience, and perseverance. I was blessed to know Bill for many years, and even after he served in the US House of Representatives, he continued to serve our communities, especially in his beloved southeast Oklahoma. Cindy and I pray the Lord’s comfort and guiding hand for Suzie, Karel, and the entire Brewster family as they grieve the loss of their patriarch.”
