Endorsements

Barry served this community as Mayor for more than 40 years, giving decades of his life to helping guide Cross Plains, solve problems, support its people, and preserve the character of the town he loves. His history here is not simply political — it is personal. He knows this community, its families, its businesses, its history, and the challenges it has faced because he has spent a lifetime being part of it.

That is why his endorsement means so much to me.

Barry’s confidence carries a weight that cannot be measured by a title alone. It comes from decades of experience, service, relationships, and a firsthand understanding of what Cross Plains needs from its leaders.

I am deeply honored to have his formal endorsement for Cross Plains City Commissioner.

Barry and his wife, Sharon, have spent nearly their entire lives in this community, and much of what Barry has done for Cross Plains over the years will probably never be fully known by the public. That kind of quiet, long-term service deserves respect.

To have someone with Barry’s history in Cross Plains look at my candidacy and say that he believes I am the right person to serve is both humbling and incredibly meaningful.

I do not take his support lightly.

Thank you, Barry, for your friendship, your service to Cross Plains, and your confidence in me. I hope to honor that confidence by serving this community with the same seriousness, accessibility, common sense, and commitment to Cross Plains that your decades of public service represent.
