When I got involved in Republican politics in 1982, a name I heard was Mr. John Ryder of Memphis. He has served many positions in the Tennessee Republican Party and the Republican National Committee. In 2019, he was appointed to the TVA Board by President Trump and served until 2021.
TN GOP Chairman Mr. Scott Golden announced that Mr. Ryder has passed from this earth.
I am grateful for the men and women like Mr. Ryder that helped set the party up to be a majority party. I am ever more committed to work to be a party that is working for all Americans.
