Letter to the Editor: Sincerely and respectfully, I thank you all for the opportunity I’ve had to serve Webb

To the Editor:

I would like to thank those who worked with me on my campaign for Town of Webb Supervisor. I believe you supported me for the right reasons and I truly appreciate the effort.

A very special thank you to Valerie and Calvin. You believed in me and offered me a great deal of emotional support and effort. It meant a lot.

Thank you also to all those who voted for me in years past, allowing me the opportunity to serve on the Town Council for eight years.

I always tried to do my best and treat every person and every issue with fairness. It wasn’t always an easy job, but it was always an honor and a privilege.

Thank you.

Our communities are very fortunate to have had so many candidates interested in representing us and our interests.

Among them are plumbers, an electrician, carpenters, shop owners, retired police officers and an insurance salesman— all hardworking individuals who give so much of their time to make the Town of Webb a great place to live.

I commend them all for being willing to serve their community and put themselves up to such scrutiny.

To my fellow board members, we may not have always agreed on all the issues, but we all worked to make a positive difference in our community.

I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with you. I also want to wish good luck to our re-elected and newly elected officials.

Small town politics are the most personal, and some would say the most important of all politics.

Sincerely and respectfully,

Richard Risley, Thendara
