Candidate makes followers successful

Posted March 23, 2013 4:40 am

I have had the privilege of working with Tom Anderson, candidate for village trustee in Fox River Grove, on the FRG Fire Department — he was my lieutenant. Tom understands the goal of leadership — making those you lead successful. At a fire incident he would do that by utilizing his available resources to safely accomplish the mission. He led us well.

I believe that Tom will bring that same understanding of leadership to the FRG village board. Wise utilization of the village’s resources — finances and people, can help FRG to continue to be a good place to live and raise a family. Wise utilization of resources can also keep businesses in the village and attract new ones. Those are the core missions of our village board.

My wife and I are pleased to support Tom as he seeks to serve our village. We’d encourage you to do the same. He has demonstrate the ability to be a thoughtful and committed leaders. That is a valuable commodity.
