His family has deep roots in Marana, once a quiet, predominantly agricultural community that has become one of the fastest growing towns in southern Arizona. Honea’s father also served on the Town Council. The legislation is co-sponsored by David Schweikert (AZ-01), Eli Crane (AZ-02), Yassamin Ansari (AZ-03), Greg Stanton (AZ-04), Andy Biggs (AZ-05), Adelita Grijalva (AZ-07), Abraham Hamadeh (AZ-08), and Paul Gosar (AZ-09). Honea passed away unexpectedly on November 24, 2024 at age 77. He was a 1965 graduate of Marana High School and served his country during the Vietnam War as a member of the U.S. Navy Seabees. He worked as a contractor for the U.S. Postal Service for 29 years. The post office that will bear Honea’s name is the post office where he worked as a mail carrier. Naming the post office after Honea was enthusiastically welcomed by Marana Mayor Jon Post and Town Manager Terry Rozema. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:52:45Z |
