Dear Editor:

Last winter my crew and I started a new restoration job out in Jefferson and were pleased to find the previously shut-down local store up and running and better than ever, offering great homemade food in a cozy place to enjoy it.

There I met Wayne Farrin, who owns and runs the store with his wife and son, and after talking several times with the big friendly guy who apparently knows practically everyone in the area – about the need for affordable housing, fixing the roads, supporting our public schools, how much the village of Jefferson needs his store, how much work it takes to be successful in a rural area like ours – I knew he was the right man to work for us in the Maine House of Representatives.

Later I was thrilled that he chose to run for office despite being so busy already with his real estate company and family business and his work on the Jefferson Budget Committee. That shows again he knows
the value of hard work and shows how much he cares. Please join me in voting to elect Wayne Farrin to represent House District 47. You will be glad you did.
