Letter: Russ Hallisey Says Medfield 'Needs Nick' Athanasiadis for Selectman

Medfield resident Russ Hallisey writes in to ask voters to choose to Nick Athanasiadis for selectman at Monday's town election.

Dear Editor, WE NEED NICK. The fact is, that while serving as Selectman, Pete Peterson was also chairman of Medfield Day for a few years, something he refers to on his blog and campaign materials as among his major achievements and contributions to the Medfield community. The fact is, when he left MEMO, he started consistently voting against issuing an event permit to MEMO for Medfield Day under his complaint that Medfield Day was an inordinate expense and burden to the Town. The fact is, that he didn’t have a problem with Medfield Day when he was chairing it. Aside from the fact that MEMO provides much to the Town by way of its annual events … holiday lights at Baxter Park and around Town, the holiday Girl Scout parade, street flags and …

As Pete posted his full comment on his blog, I also attempted to post my reply on his blog. As of yet it seems not to have been posted, "awaiting moderation". I guess he's selectively "transparent". Russ Hallisey   more ›

Letter: Richard Scullary Calls Pete Peterson 'Ideal Candidate' for Selectman

Medfield resident Richard Scullary writes in to ask voters to choose Osler "Pete" Peterson for Selectman at the Town Election on Monday, March 26.

Dear Editor: Medfield needs a Selectman who is involved in and knowledgeable about the town and its issues, and Medfield deserves a Selectman who is genuinely committed to the town's best interests. Pete Peterson is that person.   Medfield Voting and Town Attendance records, located at the Town Clerk's office, show that Pete has attended every Town Meeting and has regularly voted in state, federal, and town elections since at least 1998, the date the electronic records started recording attendance and voting in Medfield. Pete's voting record, combined with his extraordinary record of public service (detailed at http://Medfield02052.wordpress.com), make Pete an ideal candidate for Selectman. Pete has been actively and continuously involved …

I agree with Frank. Why would we elect someone who never bothered to take the time to vote or attend a town meeting? The selectman's job is very time consuming. A background of apathy is truly not one that should deserve the right of the selectman's seat. Pete has been bringing change to the selectman's board. Thankfully bringing new ideas and opening up communication. You are living in denial if…   more ›

Letter: Susan Norton Endorses Nick Athanasiadis for Selectman

Medfield resident Susan Norton writes in to voice her support of Nick Athanasiadis for selectman in the March 26 Town Election.

Dear Editor, I am writing to endorse the candidacy of Nick Athanasiadis for Medfield Town Selectman. My husband and I have lived in five states but the friends we have made in Medfield are truly the best. Among those friends is Nick Athanasiadis. Our initial contact began because both of us have sons with special needs. The bond Nick has with his son is incredible. As our friendship grew, I got to see how intelligent and insightful a person he is. "Hard-working" is Nick's middle name! Not only does he have a job as a software engineer, but he also is part owner of The Math Connection, a local Medfield business. Nick has tutored my two teenagers as well as many of your own children. The accolades he has received from parents and students …

Letter: Joellyn Ripp Supports Nick Athanasiadis for Selectman

Medfield resident Joellyn Ripp writes in to voice her support for Nick Athanasiadis for selectman at the March 26th Town Election.

Dear editor, I am writing in support of Nick Athanasiadis for Selectman for the Town of Medfield. I have known Nick for over 15 years, as a neighbor and as a friend. We moved into Medfield at the same time and raised our families alongside each other. Nick is an incredible family man; passionate about always improving his childrens' lives. He was supportive of our neighborhood and our homeowners association of 23 houses. He had great improvement ideas and was ready at any time to jump in with his support to implement our ideas. He is a hardworker and put his vast  intellectual knowledge to use by opening a tutoring school, right here in Medfield, to help our town's children with their educational endeavors. I have no doubt that he will be …

Letter to the Editor: Reelect Osler 'Pete' Peterson for Selectman

Medfield resident Steve Catanese writes in to publicly support Osler "Pete" Peterson for selectman.

Dear Editor,   I would like to take this opportunity to publicly support the reelection campaign for Osler "Pete" Peterson to the Medfield Board of Selectmen. Pete has consistently represented the town in a positive and professional manner. He has demonstrated sound fiscal responsibility and has always asked the difficult questions of government. In my 10 years in town of volunteering with many organizations and fundraising, I have never worked with anyone who was as knowledgeable, focused or passionate for Medfield as Pete.  Pete always strives to make information available and accessible so that we can all make better informed decisions. The Board of Selectmen's agenda, meeting schedule and meeting minutes are consistently posted on the …
