To the Editor:
On Aug. 21, I withdrew as a candidate for re-election to the office of Medina Township trustee.

This decision was not an easy one and involved many hours of thoughtful consideration. I never wavered from taking the high road and I’m grateful you stood by me. It has been my greatest honor to represent the residents of Medina Township. It has been a privilege to participate in decisions that will greatly improve service to the residents of Medina Township while also keeping the lid on taxes.

I believe so strongly that Jimmy Traynor has the experience, mature temperament and skill set necessary to move our township forward in a responsible and harmonious way, I am supporting his election. I am confident he will contribute to the improvements and future of this community for me to completely support his campaign.

I know that Medina Township will prosper and the residents will be well served with Jimmy Traynor as part of the leadership team. I am asking you to show the support you have given me over the years, and on Nov. 7, elect Jimmy Traynor as your next new trustee.

Ray Jarrett
