Fellow Township Residents,
Thank you for fulfilling your civic duty by voting in the election November 3d. Regardless of the issues or candidates you supported or opposed, you lived up to the responsibility bestowed on you by our nation's founders and those who have put their lives on the line since our founding to establish and preserve the freedoms we enjoy today: you voted. You - not the pundits or the politicians - are the bedrock of this nation and the hope of our Republic. By voting you have taken an active role in setting direction for the future that our children will inherit. I encourage you to continue to step up, to speak out, and to set the tone for the future of this country by voting.
I want to thank God and the people of this township for the opportunity to be your trustee. You have bestowed a great trust on me, and I will endeavor to serve our township with integrity, accountability, and transparency. I will continue to rely on you for direction and for feedback. Keep it coming! Together, we will make a difference.
On a personal note, thanks to everyone who supported my campaign during this election - it took a team effort and could not have been accomplished without everyone's hard work. You all make an outstanding campaign team.
And finally (but first in my heart), I want to publicly express my gratitude to my wife Cherie, and my sons Lucas and Jacob. I know the stress and strain of the past few months has been difficult to bear, but you have responded with love, understanding, and support. At the end of each day, no matter what may have happened, everything pales by comparison because I know that we have each other. I love you and thank God for you.
God Bless
