We need the experience of Richard Stone who has a proven record when it comes to getting the job done. He has served on the City Council in the past for six years, with one term as mayor. He has also been to Augusta and served for two years in the House of Representatives.

Stone has been a lifelong Bangor citizen. As a father of four he knows the importance of a quality school system. He has a degree in finance from Northeastern University and has used it for more than 30 years working at Standard Electric.

I have known Stone for more than 25 years. He has always been a strong supporter of the police and fire departments and knows the value and importance they mean to all the people who live and work in and around the Bangor area.

As a taxpayer in Bangor, I know we have many tough decisions to make in the coming year. We need his leadership and experience and cannot afford to miss this opportunity to re-elect Stone to the Bangor City Council.
