To the editor:

Many of you know Todd Novak, whether it be as mayor of Dodgeville, editor of The Dodgeville Chronicle, or just as the boy who grew up down the street in Cobb. He is a pillar of our community who strives to ensure our citizens are well taken care of through balancing our cities budget and keeping taxes low. One thing you may not know is his dedication to the elderly members of our community. A few years ago, Todd was appointed by the court as an elderly guardian.

As an elderly guardian, Todd volunteers to assist those who can no longer assist themselves in both their financial and personal affairs. In the later years of their lives, these individuals have no family or friends who can watch over them and are often left alone through difficult times. Todd acts as a friend, a neighbor, who is there whenever they need him, to help them through the good and bad times.

I am positive, if elected, Todd Novak would make the needs of senior citizens one of his top priorities. Not only does he have knowledge of the system as mayor, but he has hands on experience making him a true asset to all seniors if elected to the State Assembly. After serving through the years on committees and organizations such as the Commission on Aging, Senior United for Nutrition, Human Services, Public Health Agency, Hospital Board, Elderly and Handicapped Transportation, and the Coalition of Wisconsin Legislative Decisions best addressing the economic and personal need of seniors and their families, I know what it takes to make the decisions needed in Madison and Todd Novak has the ability to ensure a secure and happy future for us. Vote for Todd on Nov. 4.
