Fred Nichols' Response to Letters to the Editor

HISTORY OR A RAY OF SUNSHINE?
 
I have read the articles written by Mrs. Fardelman and Mr. Dockwell. I wasn’t even going to respond to more poison pen letters of the few of Windham; however I would like to say the deceit and discontent by a few will not help our community. Yes, I suppose there is gratification for some to keep the pot stirred. History in this community has left a bad taste in a lot of our residents’ mouths. It has been due to the half truths, rumors and personal vendettas of the same few.
 
It is not about the Supervisors and Department 19. That has been settled in court. It is not about Department 28 and Department 19 either. We should be looking forward to the future of Windham. How do we grow together in our endeavors as a team and not as a joke to our community and to the rest of Bradford County?
 
We need to look at sound leadership in our governing body, as well as in our various organizations. We have to take that step to put our hands out to each other without fear of having them chopped off or ridiculed because we tried. Yes, we will probably make some mistakes along the way but should not lose sight of our goal to be an honest and helpful community.
 
Let ‘s work on things like FINANCIAL STABILITY, GOOD ROADS, BETTER EMERGENCY SERVICES and being more responsible for what we say and do. I’m convinced that these things can be accomplished through the residents of Windham. These ideas may seem impossible to some and too much of a goal for others, but we can do it by pulling together and setting personal differences aside.
 
We need to BRING DOWN OUR DEBT LOAD and CONTROL OUR TAX LOAD. This is not an impossible task. We need to put forth a sincere effort to accomplish this. It can be done.
 
We need to PUT AND END TO THE RUMOR MILL as well. If it doesn’t come from the horse’s mouth then you need to talk to the horse to find out what is really true.......
 
**NO TRUTH TO THE RUMOR that Larry Brown would be fired if Fred Nichols gets into office.
**NO, he does not plan to get rid of the secretary or her husband.
**NO, Fred does not want to get rid of the Hall Committee.
**YES!! He does plan to improve the roads.
**YES!! Fred does want business done in the public eye .... he is for open government.
**YES!! He will listen to all the people of Windham.
**YES!! He does care what happens to you and your families.
 
A vote for Fred Nichols will be that ray of sunshine that is truly needed in Windham. Please show your continued support at the polls on November 6.
                 

Thank you,
                

Fred Nichols, Candidate for Windham Supervisor
