Not every day do you get to endorse a candidate you have known their entire life.

Today, I do. I am endorsing Suzanne Bigelow-Cherry for magisterial district judge.

I have had the privilege to watch her grow from a child attending Adams School and running around the neighborhood to becoming a wife, mother, attorney and volunteer.

I know Bigelow-Cherry to be a person who possesses traditional conservative values of hard work and dedication. She worked her way through college and law school.

As a former teacher, I am impressed with her experience in truancy cases, her advocacy for children and her volunteer work with youth.

These are the actions that strengthen our community.

Bigelow-Cherry uses her legal expertise to serve local charitable organizations and her church.

If you want a selfless, self-made, knowledgeable, experienced, compassionate, conservative, then Nov. 4 cast your vote for Suzanne Bigelow-Cherry as your next magisterial district judge.
