I want to extend my heartfelt thanks and appreciation to all those volunteers who helped in my campaign.
A special thanks to my family members and especially my wife, Gloria, for their loyal support.
It was a real pleasure meeting citizens of District 7 as we knocked on thousands of doors, everyone was so friendly, nice and considerate. There could not be any friendlier people in the world. I also would like to thank those who came out to vote.
My congratulations to Sabrena Turner, and I wish her every success in her role as our new county commissioner.
