I would like to thank all my friends and family for their support. Although we fell short, I am proud of our hard work and the campaign we ran. The disappointing result was certainly not due to a lack of effort. Even in defeat we can find victories. I have grown as a person and learned so much about the people and the business of the county. It truly was a memorable experience. I also tip my hat to my opponent Jim Curcio. I have a tremendous amount of respect for Jim and his family. And, I wish them all the best of luck. During campaigns words often become heated but, in the end we all live and want the best for our community. I am grateful for this tremendous opportunity. I truly feel that this is just the beginning for me and I look forward to the future.
