Stop the Lies
The past several months have been very difficult for Tom and I, and our family after Tom’s job ended as director of Geauga Park District.
We appreciate and are grateful beyond words for the many kind words of encouragement and support we have received over the past several months. It is what has sustained me.
I have known and been married to Tom for more than 30 years. Some may consider what I have to say as biased, because after all, I am his wife, but I know him better than anyone. Tom is a good and kind person. He worked with nothing but honesty and intregrity in his 14-year tenure at Geauga Park District.
My faith in humankind has been shaken to the core, as we have seen firsthand what people will do for personal gain.
There are some people who have been or are now associated with the Geauga Park District who continue to use propaganda and lies, particularly about Tom, to justify actions. There comes a point when one can no longer just sit back and take the lies that continue, and so I feel I must finally speak up.
You got what you wanted with Tom’s dismissal, so stop the lies and let our family get on with our lives.

Outstanding Support
As director of social services in Geauga County, I would like to thank Junction Auto for its continued generosity and support of Child Abuse Prevention.
Junction Auto once again provided us with a prime location to display 533 pinwheels representing investigated cases of abuse and neglect in 2013 on its property during Child Abuse Prevention Month.
In addition, for the third year in a row, they made a monetary donation to Geauga County Children Services for each vehicle sold in the month of April. These funds help provide preventive services to the children and families of Geauga County.
The outstanding support received demonstrates the commitment Junction Auto has to working hand in hand with us to keep Geauga County children safe.
