To the Editor:

I am writing to encourage all voters to become aware of one of your candidates for the office of Kane County coroner.

I am a recently retired county coroner after serving for 28 years as coroner. I served as president of the Illinois Coroners and Medical Examiners Association in 1992 and served more than 20 years as a board member. I have served on the necropsy board that oversaw the conduct of coroners’ offices across Illinois. I am a past member of the International Coroners and Medical Examiners Association. During this time, I have had the pleasure of meeting and working with numerous coroners.
