Honoring former senator j barry stout 1936 2016


J. Barry Stout (November 7, 1936 – October 29, 2016) was a Democratic politician and former member of the Pennsylvania State Senate who represented the 46th District from June 7, 1977—after winning a special election in May, 1977—through 2010. Previously he was a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives from 1970 through 1976.

On October 22, 2004 PennDOT dedicated the "J. Barry Stout Park and Ride" off the "Beau Street" exit of I-70 in South Strabane Township. Constructed by Greensburg-based Donegal Construction at a cost of $1.2 million, the lighted park and ride lot has 211 spaces and 7 handicapped-accessible spaces. Stout initially suggested the location of the park and ride lot after learning that PennDOT owned the land, which is ideally situated near I-70, I-79, and Route 19.

Stout has credited former Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania Ernie Kline with facilitating his election to the Pennsylvania State Senate in 1977. He died at the age of 79 on October 29, 2016.
