Letter to the Editor: Ritterbusch thorough, balanced

by | Jun 12, 2020 | Letter to Editor

I am excited to support Amy Ritterbusch in her pursuit of a position on our Select Board.

More than 10 years ago, I met Amy through the Hopkinton PTA. She was always a visible face at school events, whether fundraising, volunteering or generating new ideas.

Amy is also ever-present at town meetings. She is thorough and balanced.

I admire those who are hardworking, smart and ethical like Amy. She has an unusual commitment to our town. Amy does her homework and ensures that everyone has a voice at the table.

Amy is advocate for the entire community. I have seen her in action. She is thoughtful and proactive.

Before many town elections, I will call or email Amy. Her knowledge of Hopkinton seems endless, from Legacy Farms to the athletic fields. Amy presents a fair and balanced view of the issues. I swear she knows every line item of our school’s budget.

Please join me in voting for Amy Ritterbusch on June 29! Also, please consider casting an absentee ballot. Download an absentee ballot here.

— Patricia Hunt Sinacole, Hopkinton
