ROCKY MOUNT, N.C. (AP) - Roger Bone, a former state lawmaker who became one of North Carolina's most influential lobbyists, has died. He was 69.
Friends say Bone died early Sunday at his Rocky Mount home.
Friend and colleague Lou Wilson says Bone was diagnosed last May with biliary cancer, which had spread to his liver.
Bone served in the state House from 1979 to 1981. He later became a lobbyist who was repeatedly recognized as one of Raleigh's most powerful operatives.
The nonpartisan North Carolina Center for Public Policy Research ranked Bone as the most influential lobbyist in North Carolina last year. He operated the Raleigh-based firm Bone and Associates with his son, Fred.
