To the Editor:

I am giving a heartfelt "shout-out" supporting Robert Pickard for Legislative Council. Our families became quick friends years ago on the sidelines of the middle school soccer pitch, despite the hard-fought battle our boys were having on it. I have always known Robert (aka Bobby) to care deeply about things; starting of course with his awesome family, but also including his friends and the great town of Newtown. I am 100 percent confident his passion and devotion to Newtown will translate to meaningful and positive results on the Legislative Council and for Newtown.
