VOTE FOR KIM WHITE in the 'nooga mayor runoff! Why? because she is my cousin!
Despite my obvious bias, I do think she would be a great mayor and she has already done a lot of great things for the city. Go get'em Kim!
I have 5 uncles and 2 aunt's on my dad's side of the family, and they grew up as preacher's kids in Dayton. Kim's dad was probably my favorite uncle, but I have so many awesome uncles, so that is saying alot. He taught me how to fish and waterski and just had the most amazing patience and upbeat attitude. Sadly he passed away last summer after a long, long battle with cancer. He had a really nasty blood type cancer, but he pretty much outlasted it. However, the drugs he was taking to fight that cancer - and this went on for over 10 years it seems or more - those drugs he took eventually gave him a different type of cancer. It's so tough to lose anyone from cancer, but it was particularly bad in this case to see him get suckerpunched like that.... And not be able to say goodbye to him. I'm thankful that I got to see him last February a year ago, at least. You'll never find a greater Big Orange fan. Anyway, I kinda went off subject a little, but Kim is good folk. I imagine her runoff opponent is a decent chap, but I don't really know much about him. I hope she wins.
