Three of the people who served locally with State Senator Joey Pendleton are praising his work for the three counties over the last two decades.

State Representative Myron Dossett of Pembroke has served three terms and says Senator Pendleton has been more than willing to help him on key issues—despite being on different sides of the political aisle.

                                              

Representative John Tilley praised Senator Pendleton for his hard work for the area—noting his willingness to make frequent trips back and forth between Hopkinsville and Frankfort.

                                             

State Representative Martha Jane King says she’s also enjoyed serving with Senator Pendleton for her entire tenure in the State House and wished him well in future endeavors.

                                              

Senator Pendleton defeated then-incumbent Democrat Pat McCuiston to win the seat in 1992.
