Stuart Janke is the right choice

Posted by Editor in PoliticsLetters

Stuart Janke and I have a history together dating back to 1978 when we were both in the same 3rd grade class. We started our friendship in that year, and it has remained strong ever since. I know Stuart better than almost anyone except his immediate family.
