Jon lent a capacious mind and bottomless energy to efforts as diverse as missile defense and western water rights. His well-deserved reputation for straight shooting made him a highly effective vote counter as Republican Whip. And his humble work ethic made everyone around him look better. “So, grateful for his friendship and service, Elaine and I join Jon’s beloved Caryll, their children, Kristine and John, and the entire Kyl family in their grief. Arizona and our nation have lost a giant.” ### | 1 | 2026-09-18T09:27:43Z | 2026-09-18T09:29:09Z |
