Letter

 

To Belknap County Voters,

With all of the political turmoil and noise coming out of the White House and Congress, it’s easy for us to become oblivious to the things that really matter.  Especially during this Holiday Season, as we make special efforts to be with friends and family, and remember those who have gone before us. The overflowing Washington cesspool is the last thing we need to think about.

 

As you sit back and reflect on the year that has passed by so swiftly, ask yourself these questions:  Are we really better off than we were last year?  Has your family’s income increased enough to offset your rising costs?  Have the Republicans done anything to help my family?  Is the impending Tax Cut for The Rich going to help my family?  Have the Republican’s efforts to sabotage Obamacare increased my family’s health insurance costs?  Does my outlook for the new year look brighter?  Will my Republican representatives in the New Hampshire House and Senate work for the common man, or keep pandering to the wealthy and their closely held corporations and trusts?

 

If you can answer all of these questions positively, then good for you and your family.  Keep on doing what you have been doing.  If you cannot answer them positively, don’t you think it’s time to make a change?

 

The mid-term elections are less than 12 months away.  It’s not too early to start thinking about who will represent your interests.  Don’t be easily lured by all of the advertisements that the Koch brothers and their ilk will be flooding the media with during the next election cycle.  They will be buying the politicians who will represent them and their rich friends.  Think for yourself and reject their pleas for your vote.  Vote your conscience.

Letter

Barnstead Avery.jpg

 

To my son, Avery,

They say that time heals all wounds, but when you departed from us, you left wounds that can never, ever be healed or filled by anything. You were and are my angel. There hasn’t been a day that I don’t think about your smiling face, your laugh, your voice. Most importantly, you hugs and kisses. I miss you so, so much. I love you!

 

You’ll not be forgotten.

 

Forever remembered and loved,

Your Dad, Martin Michaud

 


 

Letter

 

To Avery,

On December 10th it will be six long, long years without you. I still miss you, every day. Winter is still so long and lonely without you. I still miss playing board games with you.

 

When your classmates graduated from 8th grade, they invited your dad and me. I was happy for your classmates. I wish them well in high school. They gave us a photo frame with your picture and one with the class. They gave us two yearbooks that they dedicated to you. I know how much you loved school, so that part made me cry.

 

So even after six years, I miss you so, so much.

 

Love forever,

Grammy Pearl Michaud
