Editor, Gazette-Journal:

I am honored to endorse my friend, Albert “Sid” Foster for Sheriff of Mathews County.

Sid is a true Constitutional Conservative Republican who has served the Mathews County Sheriff’s Office for over two decades. From temporarily running the sheriff’s office until the position was filled in the election of 2011, to supervising the Patrol Division, Neighborhood Watch, the Triad and Crime Solvers programs, he has been very involved with his community. He has additionally volunteered within the county with the fire department, rescue squad, and many student-based activities. He believes in the amendments of the Constitution and commits to performing the duties of Sheriff for many years to come.

Sid has worked hard to make a difference in the lives of those around him. As a mom, business owner, State Senator and Patriot, I know Mathews County will have strong but humble leadership and be in safe hands with Sid Foster as your next Sheriff.

Please vote fo...
