I am honored to be selected as the next Mayor of Parkville. It took a lot of support, coming from the right type of people, at just the right times, to have such a successful campaign.
I want to extend my special thanks to my wife Lori and my children Elaine, Kelley and Scott and to Deborah and Mike Butcher, Marc & Mariann Sportsman, Mike & Debbie Sobba, Dean and Marcia Katerndahl, Rhoda Powers, Carolyn Elwess, Jim Sfetko and Penny Sharp, Neil Davidson, Bob and Linda Lock, Ken & Carol Ann Hoffman, Jim & Bonnie Werner and all of my campaign supporters. The campaign was a success because of you!
My opponent was gracious in defeat and I wish him well in his future endeavors with our wonderful Parkville festivals.
Soon it will be time for me to get down to the real work of governing Parkville, the greatest little city in the world. I am blessed to have a fantastic board to work with and I do my best to leave Parkville a little better than I found it.
