| After nearly 50 years of public service in Greene County, I have learned a great deal about the operations of local government. The last 4 years of public service as your associate commissioner of Greene County District 1 has presented many challenges and even greater opportunities for strengthening our county. After much prayer, deliberation and encouragement from many people, my family and I agree that my continued service as commissioner can serve the residents of Greene County well. It is for this reason I am seeking reelection to the office of Associate Commissioner District 1. It is exciting to look ahead at the possibilities for Greene County. I believe the communities that make up this county are on the brink of great things. As the old saying goes, if we join together in pulling the load, I believe we are poised to achieve a quality of life for our citizens that, to others, is only a dream. Our residents have a proven commitment to volunteering and they demonstrate great community pride. With a little collaboration, mixed with good ole ozarkian determination, Greene County can accomplish great things. It is my desire to continue in this effort, working with you, and for you. |

The primaries are over. I want to thank everyone who turned out to vote for me. Now we are headed to the general election. I'm looking forward to serving you all as Commissioner for another 4 years.
