The community of Kosciusko County suffered a major loss with the passing of Bob Sanders.  He was a good man dedicated to the service of the community and considered his time on the county council a great honor.  He left a hole in the hearts of those who knew him that will be hard to fill.  However, at the moment there is an election going on to replace him and finding someone to do that will not be easy.  In the spirit of community service and commitment to the people of Kosciusko County, the best person for that job is without a doubt Tressa Whetten Nichols.

Tressa is a woman who has been involved with community politics for a while.  She has reached out to voters on various campaigns, going door to door for both others’ campaigns and her own (she once went to 1,500 doors for one of those campaigns).  In addition, she has a history of working with various individuals from differing political persuasions.  In a time where many in office cannot get along, she has always been willing to do just that.  For this reason, she is the perfect candidate for a seat on the county council and would do our community proud.
