Mr. Warden:

Recalling our interview with took place after the LWV (League of Women Voters) Forum at , when asked about community service, I stated that I volunteer at Methodist Hospital, VA Hospital and Special Olympics. I also told you of a poster for the donated by my wife and myself, which has hung in the City Hall lobby for almost ten years. It saddens me greatly to report to you that after you published those facts, someone was so disturbed as to remove our card from the poster. Perhaps I am naive, but I find it outrageous and hard to believe that someone would be so incredibly trite and petty to act in such a childish manner. I take pride in the fact that I conduct myself as a gentleman and have never spoken an ill word of anyone throughout this campaign. If this is indicative of the actions of any of the people who represent the citizens of this community, we are in poor company indeed.
