As a community activist and civic leader, I am very much concerned with our quality of life. As most of you know, I am a strong advocate of ensuring that our community is maintained in accordance with the standards that we deem appropriate. It is for this reason that I am writing this open letter to endorse the candidacy of my good friend and neighbor, Judge Thomas Feinman, in his bid to become a justice of the New York State Supreme Court.

I know Tom Feinman, as do many of you, as a man of integrity, strength and intelligence. In addition to being our friend and neighbor, Judge Feinman is a man of tremendous experience having been a prosecutor, defense attorney, teacher and lecturer. He is presently a Judge at the District Court in Nassau County where he has served with distinction and honor. His candidacy has been endorsed by both the Nassau and Suffolk PBAs, the Court Officers Benevolent Association of Nassau County and a host of many other significant groups too numerous to list in this letter.

His devotion to his family and our community is well recognized. It is because I wish to continue keeping our community in the hands of people who possess these qualities that I urge all of our residents, regardless of your political affiliation, to cast your vote for Judge Thomas Feinman on Election Day, Nov. 7.

It is people like Judge Feinman who are deserving of the public's trust and confidence. So, please do the community and me a favor and a service. Cast your vote for my friend - Thomas Feinman on Election Day, Nov. 7. Thank you.
