To The Editor:

I have had the privilege of volunteering with Tracey Pertoso for several years in The Second Company Governor’s Horse Guard in Newtown. She has my complete support in her desire to become part of the Legislative Council for District 3 in Newtown. She has a heart for the community, conducts herself in a professional manner, and you can count on her to deliver what she puts her mind to accomplishing. Her “can do” attitude is infectious and inspires others to excel as well.

She has volunteered for numerous events at the Horse Guard, and I have personally seen her interact with the community of Newtown on many occasions. She exemplifies the sense of pride in her hometown and caring for others. Her love for Newtown has also been demonstrated while serving two terms on Newtown’s Economic Development Commission.

In her daily work as an attorney, she strives to protect the rights of individuals and organizations. I feel this quality is paramount to this role, and that she is the type of person one would want in this position, working diligently to support Newtown’s efforts in a fair and just manner.

Tracey Pertoso is a hard worker, putting in countless hours for our volunteer organization, cheerfully and professionally collaborating not only with her fellow Horse Guard members, but with the town residents and community leaders. She is someone who can see a “need” in a situation and find (or create) the means to accomplish the solutions.

Please vote for Tracey Pertoso for Legislative Council for District 3 in Newtown. I think she will make you proud!

First Lieutenant Barbara Mazzara, Adjutant of The Second Company Governor’s Horse Guard
