Listers, I have tried to remain silent and off the list during this election period, but something has happened and I can stay quiet no longer. Today in the mail I received an anonymous letter that was the most vile, sick and cowardly letter I have ever read. I am sure others received this letter. This letter was addressed to me but written to a fellow candidate. The content of the ltter was most digusting! Anyone who runs for an office or the board of the GSDCA or any organization grows accustomed to misinformation, partial truths, and inaccuracies. This is just part of the risk of running for the board, and we can only hope that the voting members are smart enough to see the truth. But this letter crossed the line! I intend to do all I can to find out who sent this letter which was postmarked from Royal Oak, Michigan. To the sender of this letter, I want you to know that this letter could be considered a hate letter which carries severe consequences. Where has civility gone????
