To The Editor:

I am proud to endorse my longtime friend, Steve Stolfi, for a seat on the Legislative Council representing District 1. Having known Steve for over twenty years, I can attest to his character, integrity, and unwavering commitment to community service.

Our families grew up together in Newtown. Our wives are close friends, and our daughters attended Newtown’s schools and CCD at St Rose. Through these shared experiences, I have seen firsthand the values that guide Steve both as a husband, father, and friend. He is trustworthy, principled, and deeply committed to doing what is right.

These qualities will serve Newtown well. Steve approaches challenges thoughtfully and with balance, ensuring decisions are based on research, fairness, and the long-term interests of residents. His dedication to Newtown is not just words — it is reflected in years of personal involvement and investment in the life of this community.

Newtown deserves leaders who embody integrity and vision, and Steve exemplifies both. He understands the needs of the town and has the judgment and resolve to address them effectively on the Legislative Council.

Though I no longer reside in Newtown, my connection to the town remains strong. It is out of that enduring bond, and with complete confidence in Steve’s leadership, that I urge residents of District 1 to support him in this election. Steve Stolfi will represent Newtown with the honesty, fairness, and dedication it deserves.
