Letter: Thank you

I am honored to serve as one of your Property Owners Association Directors for the 2019/2021 term.  I am incredibly humbled by the outpouring of support from those who voted. There are many incredible people that I need to express my gratitude to.

Thank you to Dale and Kellie Welty for everything that you did, from your words of encouragement to your continuing validation that I made the right decision. Thank you to Joe and Roanne Grasso from All Signs for my wonderful campaign signs, you made sure they wouldn’t get lost in the forest.

Thank you to “Papa” Jack Whamsley, my “Coaches” Travis Montgomery, Joe Kamashian and Joe Washle and to one of my biggest “Cheerleaders” Gerry Tennery, for walking the Estates with me during the second hottest day of the year so far, a mere thanks is just not enough.

A debt of gratitude to Ted and Nancy Horton for their generous support, your rallying of the troops for the Meet and Greet was amazing. Thanks to Steve Libring for his insights and historical information. Thank you to Mike Harris for your courteous congratulations and kind words of advice. Many thanks to Alison and Mike Burrafato for being there with me when the vote count was announced.

Many thanks to the POA staff, especially Harmony McNaughton for her guidance through the process and Eric Kazakoff for taking the time to meet with me and share his knowledge.

To my wonderful friends, neighbors and dog walking acquaintances, I appreciated all of your kind words during my daily strolls. And as always, much love and gratitude to my son Cris and my daughters Lisa and Laura for always, always supporting my dreams and giving me the incentive to keep moving forward.
