Editor, The Herald:

Cumberland County needs Tim Kennel, a seasoned businessman, with many years facing and dealing with every day people from all walks of life with a keen sense of what's right and what's wrong. He has exemplified these qualities on our Board of Supervisors, treating everyone fairly. A managing partner of a Firestone Auto Store, where he has worked for 32 years, he is recognized not only for the most productive store on the East Coast, but the entire nation.

He has helped right our ship. Our financial position is now better than the past several years. This will allow the county to reduce taxes in the oncoming years back to appropriate levels. So think about it and vote for Tim Kennel, who is a doer, not a dreamer.
