I have known Jared for many years. All this time I have been aware of his dedication to and efforts for Palm Drive Hospital. His commitment to the hospital is genuine. When I think of Jared, words that come to mind; caring, upbeat, community minded, personable and a "go to" person. When taking on a task he approaches it with enthusiasm and determination. I believe his personality will contribute to the smooth operation of the Board. I recommend a vote for Jared.

As you know, we have spent the last 10 years volunteering to help assure that our West County community hospital survive and thrive at a time of nationwide crisis in health care. Bob served on the Palm Drive District Board of Directors for 7 1/2 years. I have been on the hospital Foundation Board for 8 years. We have accomplished many goals while keeping our health care services and 24/7 emergency room open for all.

We are at a critical time in our growth and we need an outstanding leadership team to take us into a bright future of quality health care services . We have the candidates who can do the job and your votes for these valuable community volunteers will help us realize so many of our dreams for the future.

We ask that you, and your friends, please vote for

JARED DREYFUS and JIM MARESCA for Palm Drive District Board of Directors.

Electing these highly qualified and committed West County citizens to take the place of the current incumbents will make a huge difference in the kind of leadership we will have for our hospital. Our community deserves nothing less! Please encourage your friends to vote for these outstanding candidates.

In Friendship,

Heidi and Bob Gillen

This is a critical time for our hospital and our community. We need dedication, clear thinking and accountability on the district board so we urge you to vote for Jared Dreyfus and Jim Maresca.

My good fortune lies in having Jared Dreyfus as a neighboring property owner, and although I've known him for only half a decade, from the very beginning he's given me a strong and positive impression of his character. Hešs been consistently open and forthright, prepared to give his own measured stance while remaining open to assess fairly positions of others. Integrity shines through his every word, whether spoken in seriousness or in humor.

During unrehearsed radio broadcast several years ago in which I interviewed him, his immediate responses gave knowledgeable solutions to the many healthcare problems our west county continually needs to confront. Whereas most citizens know the problems in healthcare are many, with solutions often eluding us, Jared has shown, and can continue to show, that he can furnish immediate and innovative answers, not only for the Sebastopol vicinity, but for those of us throughout the west county that rely upon Palm Drive Hospital.

I fully endorse Jared Dreyfus candidacy to the Palm Drive District Board of Directors.

It is our pleasure to endorse you and vote for your election to the Hospital Board. Although we have known each other for the past twelve years it is more recently you have become passionate about the administration and funding for the Palm Drive Hospital. We believe with your legal background, your ability to be an effective mediator and your calm demeanor will be an asset during what appears to be a time of change for the hospital. We wish you good luck!

Sincerely

Brian R. Franchini and Isabelle J. Franchini
