To The Editor:

My name is Toriana Sauro, I am 23 years old, and I have known Amybeth Laroche for more than ten years.

Amybeth was my live-in nanny while I was growing up, but she quickly became so much more than that she was a mentor and role model who shaped the person I am today.

From the very beginning, Amybeth taught me lessons that will stay with me forever. She showed me how to be a strong leader, to carry myself with grace and confidence, to use my voice, and to fight for what I believe in even when the odds feel impossible. Her ability to guide and inspire is natural, and I am living proof of the positive impact she has on the people around her.

Now as a mother herself, Amybeth continues to bring that same passion and dedication to raising her daughter and to advocating for causes close to her heart. She is deeply committed to children’s safety, quality education, school funding, supporting first responders, and easing financial burdens on families. When she takes on an issue, she doesn’t do it halfway she pours in her energy and determination until change is made.

Amybeth Laroche is someone I look up to, and I know others will too. She is strong, caring, and unafraid to take on challenges. She will not sit quietly on the sidelines, she is a leader who will stand up, speak out, and fight for what matters.
