Dear We-Ha,

Although I no longer live in West Hartford it was my home for many years. My daughter and her husband teach in West Hartford schools. My ties to the community run deep and I am deeply concerned that the town is administered by only the most talented and capable people.

I have known Beth Kerrigan for twenty-four years. She is one of my heroes. We spent many years together in the insurance business where Beth succeeded in starting, developing, managing and growing her business to many millions of dollars and national acclaim.

Beth is a woman of exceptional character who has always exhibited an outstanding work ethic. She has always been an inspiration to all who have had the good fortune to know her. Her efforts to succeed and help those who work with her succeed is her hallmark. I have never worked with anyone who possesses more energy and just plain drive than Beth Kerrigan. West Hartford is very fortunate to have Beth working in its behalf. Please don’t let her leave.
