Letter to the Editor: Doyle for Select Board

by | May 13, 2025 | Letter to Editor

I’m writing to share my wholehearted support for Jeff Doyle for the Hopkinton Select Board. I’ve been lucky to call Jeff a close friend for many years, and I can say without hesitation that few people care more deeply about this town than he does.

Jeff’s love for Hopkinton runs deep. He grew up here, raised his family here and has spent years giving back in quiet, meaningful ways. Whether he’s volunteering his time, helping a neighbor or attending town meetings just to stay informed and involved, Jeff’s commitment to this community is constant and sincere.

As a friend, I’ve seen how much this town means to him. He talks about Hopkinton not just as a place to live, but as something worth protecting, improving and investing in. He believes in the power of community, in listening to others and in making decisions that reflect both our values and our future.

Jeff leads with heart, with integrity and with a steady hand. He’s not interested in politics for politics’ sake. He simply wants to make Hopkinton the best it can be for everyone who calls it home. I’m proud to stand behind him, and I hope you will, too.

— Nick Najnigier, Hopkinton
