Editor, the Asbury Park Sun: Through our involvement in civic and social activities in Asbury Park for the last 10 years, we have met and respect many of our community leaders.

Editor, the Asbury Park Sun: Since Robert Legere and I moved to Asbury in 2001, we have had the privilege of witnessing and playing an important role in the revival of this city, for most of the time, under the leadership and business acumen of the current city council. Three of these public officials are running for […]
