Kibbie was 95 years old at the time of his death. Governor Kim Reynolds released a statement on his passing Thursday: 'Kevin and I were saddened to learn of the passing of former Iowa Senate President Jack Kibbie. I first met Jack when we both sat on the IPERS Investment Board, me as Clark County Treasurer, him representing the Iowa Senate. I later had the great privilege of serving with him in the Iowa Senate. Many will remember with admiration his long and accomplished career in that body, where he served his Northwest Iowa constituents for decades and played a pivotal role in the creation of our community college system. But what will always stick with me is the kindness and grace with which he treated all his colleagues, even those of us who served in the opposite party. Jack was an outstanding public servant, a good man, and a dear friend. He will be missed.' Gov. Kim Reynolds The Governor ordered all flags in Iowa to be lowered to half-staff until sunset Friday night. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
