Defamation of character happens when a visitor leaves a comment concerning a social media post, as well as within the content of an article or document that a host has uploaded to social media for public view. A statement may be defamatory even if it is framed as an opinion.
Negative statements about people or companies appear frequently on social media sites, such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. If they are false statements of fact, they can be considered defamation in some circumstances, or more specifically libel because they are written statements.
Some words, labels, social media posts, or accusations do more than trigger hurt feelings. Some can trigger serious psychological and monetary damage. This can occur when messages are placed online with the intent of costing people or business their ability to do any of the following:
Earn money through retail sales
Earn money through services
Raise revenue
Otherwise affect the company or the person’s reputation
If you believe you are a victim of defamation due to content the Town of Shelby, an individual, or entity has posted to social media, contact an attorney experienced in litigating internet defamation cases.
We can tell by the yard signs that it is election time once again, so I’ll try to offer my two cents worth without getting skewered too badly.
Ask yourself some questions. “Who do I support?” “Why should I support one person over the other?” “What are the candidate’s motivations for running?”
During my tenure as Supervisor I had one desire, and that was to do what is best for the Town within the law and with regards to consideration for all the stakeholders involved.
I learned a great deal in that time. I learned who I felt was more interested in using their position for their own gain, who had the best interest of the Town as their primary consideration, and who gave effort above and beyond that required.
I was blessed to work with some of the most dedicated people I have ever known.
Cindy Oliver comes immediately to mind. She is the flywheel, the major source of energy that guarantees the Town runs smoothly in greased gears. She is not up for election this time around, but when she is, she is the most critical cog in the machine who would always have my endorsement.
No Town can function in these modern times without a great attorney. Jeff Martin provided constant steady guidance and has been sorely missed in his position since his departure at the end of my term.
Louise Passarell was one the hardest working employees the Town of Murray ever had. She performed many functions, from Water Clerk to Assistant Highway Superintendent to custodial work on weekends. She was also the Assistant Assessor until such time that she studied hard and completed a course of training to become Assessor upon the retirement of Lynn Wood. She did so well she completed her examinations as #1 in the County, which made her appointment to that position all the more appropriate.
Ed Morgan, our former Highway Superintendent, retired shortly after my departure receiving many professional accolades from his peers for the outstanding performance of his duties during his long career with the Town of Murray. One such achievement was the completion of over 97% public water lines to service the people of Murray.
So, why should I bring all this up? The issue is that we worked together. Everyone knew their job, knew how it impacted everyone else’s work, and did their best for the Town of Murray. The only one remaining from such a strong core group is Cindy Oliver.
Sadly, we lost many fine and qualified individuals for the sole reason that they could not perform as a team any longer. One caustic personality, who has over the years yet to convince me he works for anyone but himself, has personally driven away from Murray many such fine individuals.
In almost every situation he seeks to promote legislation and exploit opportunities which only serve his purposes. That is not public service but self service. Some of the initiatives may benefit others, but in the long run do not be so blind to not see that his primary motivation is his own and his family’s best interests.
In closing, I will be supporting those individuals who I firmly believe have the best interests of the Town as their sole motivation, all of whom have been endorsed by your Town of Murray Republican Committee.

I have known most of them for many years and believe in their values and integrity. I humbly ask that you consider supporting them as you make sure to vote in the Primary Election on June 27th.
Town of Shelby residents, please allow me to introduce myself, I am Justin Gray; a husband, a father of two boys, and a very strong Republican.
My current job outside of family is split between being a farmer and in law enforcement. For the past couple months, I have been talking to residents and explaining my intentions on why I decided to run for Town Council. The decision to run for public office comes with great pride but I would be lying if there wasn’t a sense of worry or uncomfortableness.
I am just like many of you. A small-town guy who wants to do better for their family and their future. Unfortunately, I cannot just sit by and let opportunity pass by, it’s not how I was raised.
I understand how important it is to set values like safety, integrity and honesty. As a lifelong resident of Shelby, my roots are deep and connected to our community. I was raised by my grandparents and mother in a house that I now raise my family in.
My grandfather, Mr. Gray, was a bus driver for many years in our community. I began my love of farming at the age of 11 when I went to work on Eick’s farm milking cows. Now 20-some years later, my oldest son Nathan opened his own produce stand! He has his own garden and I love teaching him in the ins-and-outs. These experiences matter because they are true pictures of what we want to accomplish in this world.
When I went into the academy in 2019, it was because I wanted to make a difference. I wanted to protect the very fibers of our community for the harshest of dangers while providing my family with the best opportunities available. Nearly four years into my second career, I see the importance of protecting everything you worked for. Every action we do in this world should be based on improving upon what we have. If we are to do that, then our greatness is never limited.
Apparently, those values don’t quite line up with the establishment. They don’t quite gel with the status quo. I get that but, at the same time, I am not backing down.
When certain politicians want to falsely damage my character or lie about my intentions, I look back and say this is exactly what I want to put an end to. This Town deserves a voice, they deserve representatives who will fight for their interests not the politicians’ self-gain.
Without my candidacy, the establishment wanted to deny your voice and have no challenge to their handpicked candidates. We will put an end to the backroom deals, we will shine a light on the darkest corners, and together we will put people first before politics.
I am Justin Gray, a lifelong resident of Shelby, a strong Republican, and the voice you can count on. I would be honored to earn your vote on June 27th.
Many people have said that Biden and Pence are as guilty as Trump for keeping classified US government documents in their homes.
In Biden’s case, he took 6 pages of classified information by mistake and returned the pages immediately. Pence had a number of documents that he also returned quickly.
When Trump left the White House he took 15 boxes of documents, 197 classified as Secret and Top Secret – all in violation of the law and National Archives strict regulations.
The legal charges against Trump say that (1) he and his assistant sought to hide and keep some of the documents, (2) that he conspired to obstruct an investigation and schemed to conceal the truth from the government and his own lawyer, (3) that he suggested to his lawyer that he hide or destroy the Secret and Top Secret documents requested by the Justice Department and (4) that he hide the documents illegally from the FBI.
All of the charges have been summarized as obstruction of justice. The key is not having them, it is unlawfully hiding them from authorities.
Perhaps at his trial we will learn why he kept them. Mr. Cropsey in his thoughtful Letter to the Editor on June 12, discusses this topic in some detail.
Up to this point all of Trump’s legal life has centered on civil cases. He has been involved in over 3,500 legal cases: some he won, some he lost. When he lost he wrote a check and walked away.
Criminal cases are different. He has three more potential criminal cases to worry about: (1) the attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021, (2) the City of New York indictment for falsifying business records, and the (3) Atlanta, Georgia investigation into his possible interferences in the 2020 Presidential election count in Georgia.
If found guilty in any of these cases, he will not walk away.
The Shelby Town Board must require that Edward Zelazny recuse himself from all discussion of Overlay Zones and Industrial Zones within the Town.
He and his family have a financial conflict of interest with the quarry permit that the DEC just renewed, as the sons of Mr. Mahar Sr. and Mr. Zelazny Sr. are taking over the quarry fight in place of their fathers. Renewing that permit is a formality and a wake-up call for the rest of the town residents.
The DEC permit means nothing as far as the Zelazny’s and Frontier Stone LLC being able to start operating a quarry. The town’s zoning laws prohibit that type of industry in a Non-Industrial zone and the Refuge overlay zone.
An industrial quarry in the residential area and near the refuge also violates the Orleans County Comprehensive Plan. After reading the entire permit letter, I noticed a condition of the permit whereby it must be visibly posted on the permitted property. As of this writing, I don’t believe it has.
I want to give you some history for anyone who is unfamiliar with the quarry fight.
It started in 2006 when the residents of Fletcher Chapel Road found out about the Zelazny’s intention to lease their land to Frontier Stone LLC to build a nearly 300-acre quarry on the land adjacent to the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge. At that time, they contacted me. The fight should have ended in 2019 when the NYS Supreme Court upheld the Town of Shelby’s overlay zones, prohibiting the quarry in that location.
The court found no merit in the lawsuit brought by Frontier Stone. But here we are again, with one of the Zelaznys in a position to effect a change in the zoning laws.
In 2006 the town surveyed the residents regarding wind, and industrial quarrying. Overwhelmingly, the residents were against industrial mining anywhere but in an industrial zone, specifically not near the refuge. The town put a moratorium on wind, solar and quarrying permits at that time.
For the next 13 years, I, along with Ken Printup, Wayne Dickenson, and hundreds of residents, and non-residents, concerned about the potential damage to the refuge and the quiet rural way of life for those living near the quarry site, worked our tails off to get the facts out and to protect the neighborhoods and the refuge.
We researched. We collected monthly well water data. We got trained in Hydrology by the US Geological Survey in Ithaca, NY. We wrote articles for the newspapers and the Hub correcting false information spread by Frontier Stone and later the image consultants hired by Frontier.
Unfortunately, there was no doubt that the DEC would issue the permit. The SEQR process does not protect even the state’s most delicate ecosystems. The Town residents and the Town Board, through their land use attorney Daniel Spitzer, worked day and night to tighten the local laws to avoid generation’s worth of damage and disruption to the residents and the Refuge.
Currently, a candidate running for Town Board is telling people that the Zelaznys back him. He has publicly stated his opposition to the Town’s Overlay Zone. This should tell the board all they need to know about the need for diligence in transparency and avoiding the appearance of impropriety in making decisions where a board member stands to benefit from these decisions financially.
In closing, I would like to thank the board for the Town’s Facebook page. It has been an invaluable resource for informing residents of things happening in the town and how the Town is addressing issues such as the cemetery mowing. I appreciate all the work that has made this a clear source of information for the town. Thank you for your time.
I think Joe Biden is too old to serve a second term. I wish someone like Chuck Schumer was in the mix. I could stand having Chris Christie as president. But Donald Trump has been a much bigger disaster and embarrassment for America than I thought was possible back in 2016.
Comparing Biden’s “secret files” situation to Trump’s insane goofball antics is like comparing visiting a hospital for a urine test to being admitted to have a lung removed.
Yeah, Biden’s secret files are “all over the place” – I found three or four blowing around my back yard just this morning.
And I find it most depressing to see elected Republicans lying through their teeth, scurrying to avoid offending the beliefs of the millions of cretinous moron Trump suckers. And how many of those fools aren’t quite so stupid, but are just lying to themselves?
It’s almost time for the Town of Murray Republican Primary and Joe Sidonio is being challenged by Gerald Rightmyer, a short-time town councilman.
Since becoming Supervisor, Joe, who is an accomplished businessman with a degree in accounting, has demonstrated his ability to manage our town finances better than anyone. That is, after all, the primary responsibility of town supervisor.
As a Vietnam veteran who served in the U.S. Army’s 23rd Infantry Division, I also appreciate that Joe is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and it shows in his unrelenting work ethic.
I know that Joe has spent a lot of time on the Fancher War Memorial and doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He was even criticized by the wife of an elected town employee recently on Facebook.
Several of my friends who are also veterans have commented on their appreciation of Joe’s involvement in this and that we should all support him at election time.
In these trying times with the current state and federal government leadership there is very little patriotism on display anymore and when a patriot like Joe works tirelessly to honor these local veterans it’s really appreciated.
Joe was also the driving force to reduce the town’s 50 percent water loss that cost Murray water customers thousands of dollars a year in water we paid for but didn’t use. If Joe hadn’t been elected this would never have been addressed.
Joe’s opponent has been a town councilman for a short time now. What are his accomplishments? What is his platform? What leadership experience does he have? What qualifies him to run for Murray Town Supervisor?
I’m supporting Joe because of his work ethic and proven track record as twon supervisor, because he is not related to anyone in Murray Town Government, his opposition to corruption within the town government and because he has accomplished everything he promised to do including his tax cuts all in his first year.
He deserves to be re-elected to continue his drive for a better, more efficient town government.
In response to Mr. Cropsey, I would find your letter more creditable if you acknowledged the fact that the current President has the same problems going back many more years than Trump.
Records from Mr. Biden have been found all over the place in less secure areas than Trump’s estate. This double-tiered justice system needs to be changed.
There is a serious problem in Washington and I think “We The People” need to hold both sides accountable, not just the one you don’t belong to.
We also need to rein in the media and get them back to honest reporting instead of pushing their own agenda or the agenda of a certain party.
This country is in far worse shape now than when Mr. Trump was in office. I will gladly vote for another “mean” businessman to run this country and clear the swamp.

What a memorable and well earned dedication inspired and brought to all by the Albion Betterment Committee! What an incredible achievement!
The legacy of Charles W. Howard and his Santa School and Christmas Park now shines forever.
The Albion community glows and thanks each of you and others who moved the goal forward to its completion.
Trump stole war plans and nuclear secrets. The speaking (detailed) indictment makes clear that it is an overpowering, easy case to prove – tapes, videos, his lawyers’ testimony, associates all clearly establish espionage. Just read the indictment, it’s amazing.
The only loose cannon may be that the case seems to be assigned to Judge Cannon who the 11th Circuit (affirmed by the Supreme Court) already found “abused discretion” trying, as she did, to apply so called legal principles she heard on Fox News about Trump rather than apply the actual Rule of Law. She is astoundingly uninformed! That could delay the inevitable.
There is an unanswered and serious issue as we have no idea how long it will take to figure out how much information was compromised or sold in the year and a half it took to retrieve the documents Trump stole. Monetizing them through sale is the only reason for holding onto these secrets. (The Indictment has partially listed 31 of them.)
Quite differently, the question now for voters is figuring out what to think and do about all the copycat politicians who still puff up their chests and lie like “our” lives depend on believing their message of distrust and dissatisfaction.
Do we look around and realize our lives are pretty good or do we want to think everything was better in some idealized past or the present they lie about. There are, for example, a false narrative about literature being subversive. A false narrative we were better off being racist and intolerant.
A false narrative that with these idiots in charge we have more (not less) opportunity to move up the ladder of opportunity. A false narrative that rights that affect us are fine but it is wrong to recognize the rights of others who did others no harm. A false narrative that in the past the money government raised was not getting good things accomplished.
Trump showed politicians a path to power, corrupted our traditions, and inflamed partisan passions and laws to hide subversive and paranoid ways.
Can we rely that truth and reason can now overcome the widespread paranoia he stoked and others still spew? Or are enough of us willing to say (or realize) the Constitution and Rule of Law have to prevail if we have any chance to maintain a mature democracy which is ultimately in our best interests?
The mature response – the response that has always carried us through hard times and will carry us through these times – is to trust those (all of those) who choose tolerance, policy over winning, and the Rule of Law. Can people relax and get their heads together again or will they continue to fool themselves with the distrust and fear that is being peddled?
The truth is things are good. Get things in perspective. Overwhelmingly people of all stripes and government are good and serve us well. Putting “winning” over good policy and fair dealing is bad. And Trump and his copycat politicians and entertainers are cheap, loud mouth, common crooks.
Jack Smith, the prosecutor, came home from the Hague where he was prosecuting war crimes and criminal heads of state. This country has a hundred years of experience with special prosecutors who make their own decisions. Smith is used to hearing noise and ignoring it. He will hold fast as otherwise good people come back to their senses as they see the proof.
I would like to give a heads up to the Airbnb owners and people who rent out their cottages and homes part time in the Town of Yates. I was at our town workshop with Steven Colon on June 5 and our Town Supervisor is head strong on regulating what has been a cultural norm for the last 30 years in our town.
They will be taking from Clarendon’s town law (click here) and the draconian Kendall town law (click here) to put something together against the owners in our town.
To be fair there will be a press release on the Hub about this. They are also proposing a Town Hall meeting so residents can come and ask questions before they propose a public hearing. Pay attention to the dates.
I urge this to be attended so you can become informed because if this proposal moves forward it will be very hard to repeal. Neither I or Steven Colon (candidates for Town Board) support this in any way shape or form as we believe in a free prosperous Lyndonville.
Town of Shelby residents have asked for transparency, so here goes…
The last Town Board meeting a request was made to the Town Board to assist with funding Basketball Courts at Butts Park. The Board voted unanimously to fund $10,000 towards the Basketball Courts.
Recently the Town Hall parking lot was milled and paved. A big thank you to Highway Superintendent Dale Root for coordinating with Keeler Construction to immediately start on the Town of Shelby project as soon as they finished milling the roads in the village of Medina. This coordination saved the taxpayers of Shelby approximately $5,000 in transportation costs if Keeler Construction was not already in the area doing work.
Superintendent Root also applied for grant funding to purchase a new dump truck/plow truck with Congresswoman Claudia Tenney’s office, which if approved, could save the town approximately $300,000 for a new truck.
The heavy truck fleet is strong but tired. The cost of repairs are starting to rise and the trucks are starting to need more repairs as they age. I commend the crews on their maintenance and upkeep of the trucks. You can see the effort and pride they have in their vehicles, but season after season of salt takes a toll on the equipment. The Town Board has authorized Highway Superintendent Root to accept bids for two new plow trucks with plows to replace aging equipment. Updates will be forthcoming.
The Town Board has engaged the services of a local engineering firm to explore funding opportunities to establish a water district 13 which includes the east side of the Town of Shelby.
Recently I have been getting questions from concerned citizens about comments made by an unendorsed candidate for town council, who said that the National Wildlife Refuge Overlay near Fletcher Chapel Road, which the Town of Shelby approved, needs to be removed because no business can be established inside the overlay area.
The overlay surrounding The Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge was established to protect the Refuge which is a unique natural resource in the Town of Shelby. If you go to NYS Local Law look-up and search Town of Shelby Local Law #3 of 2017, it clearly defines businesses that are allowed in the overlay district.
That area is zoned Agricultural/Residential. It does allow for home-based businesses such as vehicle repair shops, bed and breakfasts, even a campground up to 10 acres in size, among others. What it does not allow for is commercial or industrial-type businesses.
So to answer the concerns, yes the overlay district does restrict commercial and industrial-type businesses. However that does not mean you can not have a business in the overlay area. If you are interested in starting a business in that area, contact the Code Enforcement Officer at the Town Hall.
I received an email that I think every taxpayer in the Town of Shelby should be made aware of. The email I received was addressed to the Town of Shelby Supervisor and it was from The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Region 8, Regional Permit Administrator. The email was a notification that a renewal mining permit was issued to Frontier Stone LLC of Wilson, NY for the Frontier Stone Quarry on Fletcher Chapel Road-Sour Springs Road in Shelby.
If any resident is interested in obtaining a copy of the mining permit, it will be available at the town hall.
Hi! I’m Dale Root, your Shelby Highway Superintendent. It has been a pleasure serving you and the town for the past 3 1/2 years! I am the endorsed Republican candidate and asking for your support as I seek re-election.
The town primary is June 27th. Please vote!
Below is a list of a few of our accomplishments during my tenure:
• Never going over budget! AND, working closely with the town board.
• Paved, repaired, and sealed over 18 miles of Shelby roads.
• Switched winter plowing and sanding to straight salt. Doing this lessens spring cleanup and saves us all tax dollars!
• We have implemented a high-speed water meter reading program reducing meter reading from one week to one day, saving us all tax dollars!
• Working with our Soil & Water office we came up with a solution alleviating flooding and potential health hazards on West Avenue Extension.
• Immediately respond to any water main breaks and continuously cleaning ditches & culverts in need of repair.
• We purchased a new High Lift at great savings to the town.
• We team with neighboring towns to share services saving tax dollars.
• I do not accept the NYS retirement and I decline (& discontinued) the town’s water stipend (saving the town thousands of dollars).
I believe Shelby is in a better place than when I was first elected. I take my role as custodian of our highway funds (our precious tax dollars) very seriously! We have always worked within our budget and frequently stay under budget. I’m asking your support as I seek re-election.
By Ginny Kropf, correspondent Posted 6 June 2023 at 6:35 pm
When she was a reporter for The Daily News in Batavia, Ginny Kropf wrote about Sgt. Jack Gell, a Rochester native. Gell was killed in the Vietnam War on November 14, 1965. His death was portrayed in a book and movie “We Were Soldiers Once and Young.” He was stationed at Fort Benning, which has just been renamed Fort Moore in honor of Gell’s commanding officer Lt. Col. Hal Moore and his wife Julia.
The other night just before Memorial Day I sat down to watch the national news and caught the end of a feature about the renaming of Fort Benning, Ga.
I heard the name Hal “Harold” Moore and the fact his widow had been horrified to learn spouses were being notified by telegram when their loved ones were killed in action, and she set out to do something about it. Because of her, loved ones are now notified in person, and for her efforts, Fort Benning on May 11 was officially renamed Fort Moore.
My story begins with my husband Al’s and my best friends Bob and Fran Eigenmann. They are both gone now, but the times we shared were priceless. One of those times was meeting Fran’s sister-in-law, Rebecca Gell Workentine, and her connection to Col. Hal Moore.
Fran and her brother Jack Gell grew up in Rochester. Fran and Bob had a cottage east of Shadigee for many years near Lyndonville. Jack has a nephew Togo DeBellis of Le Roy and a niece Linda Johnston of Batavia.
Jack joined the Army and was stationed at Fort Benning, Ga. He and Rebecca “Becky” had three children, the youngest of whom was a baby when Jack left for Vietnam. They were in the car to take Jack to the bus when he said he had forgotten something and went back in the house. On the bathroom mirror, he wrote “I’ll always love you, Beck,” with her lipstick. She still has that mirror and I wanted to cry when I saw it.
I had the pleasure of meeting Becky, her children and new husband John Workentine, whom she married nine and one-half years after Jack’s death.
Becky said she drove Jack to the bus and she cried so hard on the way that the stack of diapers on the front seat was soaked.
Jack was a member of the 1st Battalion, 7th Calvary, Alpha Company. On Nov. 14, 1965 they were in the Ia Drang Valley, which would become the bloodiest battle of the Vietnam war. Jack had volunteered to carry the radio for company captain Romano “Tony” Nadal.
I interviewed Tony by phone in March 2002 and he told me 400 American soldiers were surrounded by 2,000 Vietnamese troops. He had gathered his men in a creek to go look for a missing platoon. A round of machine gun fire burst out and Jack, who was on Tony’s left, became the battle’s first casualty. He was 24 years old. Two lieutenants on his right were also killed.
After the war, Lt. Col. Moore wrote a book with journalist Joseph L. Galloway, called “We Were Soldiers Once and Young.” Later, a movie “We Were Soldiers” was made, with Mel Gibson playing Moore and Barry Pepper playing Galloway. In the book, Jack’s death is described, and as he was dying, he whispered to a buddy kneeling by his side, “Tell my wife I love her.” Until the book came out in 1992, the family never knew Jack has uttered those words. Jack wore his baby daughter’s pacifier around his neck and locks of his two other children’s hair and family photos were in his wallet.
The entire family, including Fran and Bob, were invited to the launch of the book and to the set of the movie. They met Lt. Col. Moore on the set.
When I talked to Tony Nadal on the phone, I asked him what he thought of the movie. I still hear his reply.
“I really wasn’t prepared to see him die again. Seeing Jack Gell get killed is one of the worse memories of my life. It’s a burden I carry around.”
The news of Jack’s death reached Becky by Western Union. The employee arrived in a black car wearing a black suit. Becky told me as she sat in my living room it was very foreboding and her knees shook like jelly.
“I knew it was an ominous thing and I debated whether to open the door, but knew I had to,” she said.
She was trembling so much, she couldn’t hold the pen and the man signed for her.
Jack was the first soldier from Vietnam to be buried at Fort Benning and his funeral was on national television. CBS newsman Walter Cronkite asked Becky if she would be photographed meeting the train with Jack’s casket, but she declined.
I also had the honor of talking to Lt. Col. Moore on the phone and he said it was a superb movie and he was happy it dealt with the closeness between the soldiers and their families and the heartbreak on the home front.
“It captures the action of the soldiers fighting and dying for each other,” he said. “It shows their respect for the men and their capabilities.”
The renaming of Fort Benning pays tribute to Lt. Col. Moore and his wife Julia.
I have visited Fort Benning and Jack’s grave with Fran and Bob. I later learned Lt. Col. Moore also visited his men’s graves and wanted to be buried with them, but there were no plots. So Becky, who had a plot next to Jack, gave it up so Lt. Col. Moore could be cremated and buried there and, when the time comes, his wife with him.
Rochelle Moroz and I were married when we were serving in the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam Era.
She has always been a conscientious worker and Manager who developed and kept to a realistic budget in all her endeavors. She served honorably as military Inventory Management Specialist during the 1970s, performed exceptionally well as a Security Policeman at Seneca Army Depot in the 1980s, successfully managed the night shift at a restaurant in the 1990s, processed on sight claims as a Red Cross worker in the 2000s, and supervised/managed a U.S. Census office supporting the 2000 Census.
Rochelle volunteers as AARP tax preparer, volunteered as a Hospice counselor, and in the 2010s completed several years as church secretary, where she also taught a quilting circle.
As Holley Village Trustee, Rochelle meticulously reviews every substantial purchase, to include equipment, supplies and services to maintain and improve quality of life for Holley village residents.
Rochelle is a team player, and is a proven excellent steward helping to ensure the village spends within its means.
I sincerely hope that you all will support Rochelle Moroz with your vote for Village Trustee at the Holley Village Office on June 20.
