Letter: Mary Fritz endorses Ann Marie Foley for Select Board

I am writing this letter in support of Ann Marie Foley for Select Board. I have been a friend of Ann Marie for 20+ years and have collaborated with her on various projects and committees.

I have witnessed the enthusiasm and devotion Ann Marie has displayed in the many committees, groups, and boards she’s participated in. Ann Marie is passionate about this town and has not been shy about sharing her time and expertise where she can be helpful or impactful.

I am appreciative of the knowledge and experience Ann Marie brings to the deliberative process. I know that she will be an integral part of the planning process as our town continues to grow and change. I know Ann Marie to be very professional, thorough, thoughtful, and decisive. I know she recognizes that Grafton is no longer a small rural community and embraces a vision that encompasses smart growth, while preserving its small-town character and open space.

Experience and level-headedness are what is needed for this position. Ann Marie has what it takes to move our town forward in the right direction! Please join me in voting to elect Ann Marie Foley to the Grafton Select Board on May 17th.

Mary Fritz
