To The Editor:

I am writing in strong support of Steve Stolfi for Newtown’s Legislative Council. I had the privilege of working with Steve for more than twenty years at Corsearch, a company I co-founded in New York City.

During our time together, Steve consistently demonstrated exceptional leadership, integrity, and teamwork. As head of our Sales and Marketing Team, his strategic insight, tireless work ethic, and ability to motivate others were instrumental in helping Corsearch grow into one of the world’s leading trademark search and brand protection companies. Steve led by example — always willing to put in the extra effort and inspiring those around him to achieve their best.

What sets Steve apart is not only his professional excellence, but his character. He treats everyone with respect, listens carefully to differing perspectives, and makes thoughtful, well-informed decisions. These qualities make him an ideal representative for Newtown on the Legislative Council.

Steve is also deeply devoted to his family and community. A longtime Newtown resident, a dedicated husband to his wife Kristen, and a proud father of his two daughters Caroline and Jessica, he brings balance, compassion, and a strong sense of responsibility to all he does. His ability to connect with people, understand issues, and work collaboratively toward solutions will be a tremendous asset to Newtown.

Even in retirement, Steve has remained a loyal friend and a person of genuine integrity — someone who lifts others up, follows through on his commitments, and leads with both head and heart.

Newtown would be fortunate to have Steve Stolfi serving on its Legislative Council, and I am proud to endorse him without reservation.
