Dear Editor: Support for Jim Buterbaugh

Dear Editor,

To Jim Buterbaugh:

We were more than happy when we found that you are a candidate for County Commissioner. Kathryn and I have been associated with you for many years. Our first acquaintance was when you remodeled a couple of older houses for us--one in Whitehall and one in Butte. At that time, we found that you are a good carpenter. Over the years, we have also realized that you are a man of many talents. You never talked much about your time in the military, but I gather that was a worthwhile and successful experience. We thank you for your service to our country. We have also found that you are a professional cook. And then your service for the Cardwell school system has been to their benefit. More recently, we have learned that your political views are very down-to-earth and realistic. Your service to Whitehall, to our extended community, to the school system, and to family and friends has been greatly appreciated. I have no doubt whatsoever that your commitment to the welfare of Jefferson County will be equally noble. We can attest to your integrity and diligence. Kathryn and I wish you success in the coming election.
