To the Editor: I am writing to advocate for Walter Perry in the election for the Paris Select Board. Walter and his family are long-time residents of Paris, he is a teacher at OHCHS and his wife Kim owns her own business. Because of this he is a strong candidate who can bring new ideas and sound thinking to the Select Board. He is exactly the type of selectman needed at this critical time. I have known Walter and his family for the three years that I have owned The Tribune in Norway. He is a considerate and thoughtful family man with determination. These qualities are what is needed right now.
