Statement from Lamont McClure on the passing of former Northampton County Executive John Stoffa on May 2nd.

“John Stoffa lived and breathed county government. He served as Human Services Director in both Northampton and Lehigh counties during his career. If there is a more demanding job in county government, I haven’t seen it. His positive legacy as Northampton County Executive can be found all over Northampton County in our parks, in our open and green spaces, in our centralized Human Services Building in Bethlehem Township and in our Work Release facility in West Easton. His hard work on the behalf of the people of Northampton County will endure long past today’s sadness and, on behalf of the people he and I have served, we say to Mrs. Stoffa and their sons how deeply sorry we are for their loss.”

The County flag at County buildings will fly at half-staff until the conclusion of Mr. Stoffa’s funeral.
