Proponents of Death with Dignity legislation in Massachusetts are heartened by positive feedback in the current session of the State House.

I am writing in support of Tim Hilchey’s re-election to the Deerfield Select Board. In addition to his selectboard seat, Tim has a history of service to our town, including participating in the Community Preservation Committee, South County EMS Oversight Board, Medical Reserve Corps, and Friends of Deerfield 350th fundraiser. As a selectman, he has worked tirelessly for the people of Deerfield, even donating his own physical labor! In tough financial times he has fought for state and federal funds, including almost $3 million to fund the Leary Lot and EV Charger Project— at no cost to the town.

For many years, I have been an active member on various boards and committees that helped “run” the town of Deerfield. My professional job and my volunteer Deerfield committee work has helped me realize the importance for voting David Wolfram as a Selectboard member. He is a no nonsense person, does not believe in smoke and mirrors, and has plain common sense with full transparency.

A vision of Deerfield’s future.
