LETTER: John & Brenda Grady Deserve Your Vote

To the Editor:  

Merrimack voters have an opportunity next month to elect several outstanding candidates to be our representatives in Concord. Both Brenda and John Grady have served Merrimack well in many capacities, with positions on the Board of Selectmen, Merrimack School Board, Municipal Budget Committee, Conservation Commission, Trustee of the Merrimack Public Library as well as responsible positions in non-governmental entities such as the Exchange Club.

As office-holders in this club, they have donated many hours to the community through projects like Youth of the Month, Top Ten Scholars, Fire Safety and Crime Prevention, and the collecting of  Cans For Kids to raise money for our local food pantries.

Their thirty-seven years of residence have given them a sound grasp of how our town works and what we need in the way of support from the state. They are very concerned with the downshifting of expenses from the state level to the local property taxpayers. 

Merrimack residents may vote for eight candidates for state representative. Please join me in voting for Brenda and John Grady on Nov. 6 for two of these seats.
