To the editor:

As many of you are already aware I will not be seeking re-election this May. The decision was not an easy one and long in the making. I find that it is now time to move on to new adventures. This new found freedom will give me the time to visit with family that is out of state and to catch up on the little things that have been put on back burner waiting for “Tomorrow.”

Well tomorrow has come, and I am looking forward to spending time with both my husband and my family who have been most supportive over the past 12 years.

I will miss my “Town Hall” family, and that is exactly what they have become. We see one another in the good times and bad, we cry and laugh together and get angry with one another as any real family would do.

With this all said, I would like to thank the voters that have supported me and to everyone that I have dealt with over the years. It has been both my honor and pleasure to serve the Town of Mattapoisett for the past 12 years as Town Clerk and to work with and for the town for the last 24 years.
