We understand that in today's fast paced world there is a drastic need for candidates who are decision makers, attend regular meetings, voice their opinions, and exemplify a rational and honest philosophy.

Our first meeting with Mr. Greg McElveen was when we became members of the church that he attends. From the beginning, a feeling of warmth came with the introduction as his beautiful smile and honest, gentle demeanor overwhelmed us.

After observing his interpersonal relationship with the members and especially the youth of the church, we were convinced that what is natural for him is the purity of his dedication.His drive and perseverance while working with the youth in this community has earned our respect.What is most striking about Mr. McElveen is his self-assurance and strength in whatever issues are presented to him.

We often reference him while discussing a quote we once read: "Always talk to everyone.Each person who walks this earth is a valuable repository of memory and history" (author unknown). Not one person that we know is more deserving of what we interpret this quote to mean than Mr. McElveen.
