Lewes is fortunate to have many thoughtful, caring and capable citizens. There is no shortage of interest in projects and politics in Lewes. People who care about where they live and have a vested interest usually make good leaders and contribute to the community in a variety of ways. Some make time to serve others by seeking public office.
I’ve known Dennis Reardon for over 20 years as a friend and business associate. Many in Lewes have known him much longer. I submit that his love for all things Lewes, his concern with fairness and the welfare of others from his family court days, his work with the less fortunate later in his career, and his civic involvement with the current administration make him well qualified to serve on city council.
If you agree that honesty, integrity, and good judgment are overriding requirements for public office today, please help to extend our tradition of good leadership and vote for Dennis Reardon for City Council on May 11.
