Slattery: integrity and kindness

PUTNEY-I am grateful to call Bex Slattery a colleague, blessed to call her a friend, and completely enthused that she's running for a seat on the Putney Selectboard.

This was a woman who had a lot to bring to any table that she was at. Now she's stepped up to run, and it is easy to see the ways that our community will benefit.
