Letter: Experience and trust

Published 12:15 am Friday, April 5, 2024

I have known Tessa Scheller for half of my life. Over those last 37 years, I have witnessed and worked with her on projects that require big, bold thinking and deep knowledge.

She builds lasting relationships that are anchored in trust and benefiting all. Her experience as a registered certified nurse anesthetist at Providence Seaside Hospital developed her caring capacity.

Her enthusiasm in helping form multiple nonprofits to enhance our communities’ quality of life has made such a difference.

Her elected posts with the Skipanon Water Control District, the Clatsop Soil and Water Conservation District and Clatsop Community College have made our water safer and our higher education system much more diverse, equitable and inclusive.

During these challenging times of polarization, she is a discerning leader who will work with you and others to find solutions that are safe, secure and responsible for our community and environment.

She is smart, a good listener, ethical, trustworthy, accountable and devoted to our community.

She is ready, willing and able to be our next county commissioner. Please consider your very important vote, and elect Tessa Scheller for Clatsop County commissioner, District 2, in the May 21 election.
