Thanks and appreciation for support

I want to express my thanks, and appreciation, for the significant support of the voters here in Mukilteo.

It is an honor, and a humbling experience, to be so strongly recognized and affirmed as a member of the City Council for four more years.

My pledge is to continue to be thoughtful, deliberative, and to work for the best interests of all the citizens of Mukilteo.

I also want to thank those who worked with me on this campaign and whose support was essential to my success.

Paul and Kim Kramer; Mary Beth and Tom Stibbins and daughter Jennifer; Cherrie Wallace; Arnie and Janet Hammerman; Kristen Kohorst; Robert Knoll; Jon Waters; Riaz Khan and his family; Jim Russell; Marko Liias; Firefighters local 3482; Tonya Morris; Brian Sullivan and all those who had faith enough to endorse me (too many to list here); and most of all, my wonderfully supportive and admirably organized wife Liza Patchen-Short.

They all helped shape and organize the campaign, put out and maintained signs, motivated me, and kept track of my door-belling. Many others wrote letters of support and provided the necessary financial means to cover the costs.

With deep gratitude to all,

Richard Emery
