LTE: In Support of Margaret Drye

To The Editor,

Our neighbor, Margaret Drye of Plainfield, is running for the NH House of Representatives and we should be glad she is. Margaret knows our district and the towns in it – Plainfield, Cornish, Newport, Unity, and Charlestown – and knows the state about as well as anyone. She should, she’s served the towns, district, county and state in a variety of ways on a variety of commissions and committees as well as in her 4 decades of service as a volunteer EMT on the rescue squad.

She organized and managed a 4-H group for over 25 years.

She’s led the town Finance Committee and the Plainfield 250th Anniversary Committee. She served as water district clerk for 15 years and is currently a cemetery trustee.

She’s been an instructor trainer for the Red Cross and American Heart Association for decades, served on the Hanover Co-op Board for 13 years, and is currently a NH trustee and member of the Board of Directors for the Big E.

 This is far from a complete list of Margaret’s efforts and accomplishments. I could go on for a few more paragraphs.

 Margaret is an intelligent, thoughtful, experienced, hard- working, involved, even-handed, fair-minded, energetic, enthusiastic woman. I can’t imagine a better qualified person than Margaret Drye to represent our District In the House.
