Letters: M. Wilson for Bonnie Rickert, Family Court Judge; Davis, Collins for Thomas, District Judge


Michael Wilson supports Bonnie Rickert

Dear Voters,

As a career educator, I can tell you I was cautiously optimistic when a young attorney by the name of Bonnie Rickert announced she was running for the School Board. Just as in the past, many of us wondered, what’s her angle, why is she running for a job with no pay, lots of headaches and few public accolades?

What we would soon learn is Bonnie Rickert had run for the School Board for the right reason, she ran to help shape the lives and minds of the young people entering Boone County Schools every day. Bonnie Rickert rolled up her sleeves and became a partner with parents and educators to help take Boone County to an historic statewide high ranking of #4.

Bonnie Rickert has proven beyond any measure that she is a board member focused on putting the interests of the students first in every decision she makes.

It’s truly unfortunate the ever-escalating number of young people in Boone County who find themselves interwoven into the Family Courts. I am supporting Bonnie Rickert for Family Court Judge because I know that she is thoughtful in her deliberations, cautious in drawing conclusions and committed to the welfare of the youth.

Boone County educators will be able to rest better knowing Bonnie Rickert is on the job as a Family Court Judge because we have slept better knowing she was on the School Board.

We’ll miss Bonnie on the School Board, but the community will be better for her service as Family Court Judge.

Do the kids a favor, vote for Bonnie Rickert for Family Court Judge.
