Put ‘Monte’ in the driver’s seat

Lamont Barnett asked me to write a letter supporting him for the position of assistant judge, and I readily agreed.

I have known him for several years and served with him on the Rockingham Selectboard when he was chair.

Some of his qualifications for this position are clear. He is extremely sharp and remembers everything down to the smallest detail. If he says he's going to do something, he'll do it. And the most important trait for this position is being trustworthy.

My husband, who has an antique truck that he treasures, would only let Monte drive it in a parade. He won't even let me drive it, but that's another story.
