I’ve known Zosia VanMeter for 25 years

I am writing to express my strong & heartfelt support for Zosia VanMeter for State Representative for the 9th Essex District. I have known Zosia for more than 25 years, since she and my daughter attended school together. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of watching her grow into the thoughtful, capable, hardworking, and caring woman she is today. She has always stood out for her intelligence, determination, and genuine kindness toward others. I’m especially grateful that Zosia and my daughter have remained close friends all these years. Through that friendship, I’ve been able to see firsthand how she listens, works hard, and is always willing to help, including helping me through more than a few of my computer mishaps when my “click-happy” ways got me into trouble! I’ve had the privilege of watching Zosia become a mother. Seeing the love, guidance, and values she has given her daughter speaks volumes about the kind of person and parent she is. I have also been impressed by the way Zosia has conducted her campaign: with hard work, genuine connections, and a clean, positive approach that focuses on listening to people and serving the community. After knowing Zosia for more than 25 years, I have tremendous respect for her character, work ethic, and commitment to others. I am proud to support her and believe she would be an excellent State Representative and a strong advocate for the people of the 9th Essex District. Valerie Tracy Lynn
