Letter to the Editor: Ritterbusch ‘committed to bettering Hopkinton’

by | Jun 27, 2020 | Letter to Editor

I have only words of praise for Amy Burns Ritterbusch. She’s clearly committed to bettering Hopkinton. I have found her to be equable, thoughtful, honest and industrious in her many town-based activities. She works to find the balance of truths in any given situation (not an easy undertaking); in this respect, she truly works for the community as a whole. I know her to be calm-headed, well-prepared, courageous and respectful of others. We are lucky in this town to have a surfeit of knowledgeable, committed and engaged volunteers to help us navigate these difficult times. Amy, with her tirelessness and analytical acumen, will certainly light the way.

— Meg Tyler, Hopkinton
