again of Something from above. And
everyone is full again of faith, and hope, and
love. And everyone is full again of faith, and
hope, and love." May you and your family

Street Paving A Priority
These photos show some of my present interests in street paving. I am
currently supervisor for street repairs for the City of Roma. The City of
Roma has so far been growing, building, and best of all improving all their
streets and public works. Because of some people's interest I have
dedicated myself to help thecity 1007., and I intend thesame for Rio Grande
City and San Isidro.
I don't want to win to learn how to be a Commissioner--! want to be
elected so I can teach, as a Commissioner, employees of the County so they
themselves won't have to guess their work as they are doing now.
A good leader will make the system 100%better.
If I am elected, I will work on major pro|e sfor Rio Grande City and San
Isidro, as well as for the rest of the County l am doing now.
