Letter To The Editor – Some Praising Instead Of Complaining

January 3, 2014 By eastwickpress

To the Editor:

It’s easy for people do a lot of complaining but not a lot of praising!

We’ve lived in Hoosick Falls for seven years. Since Lou Schmigel took the job of Highway Superintendent for the Town of Hoosick he personally has taken my calls and solved my issues, starting on the Mechanic Street Extension, Sunrise Drive area and recently on Shingle Hollow Road after the last snow storm.

We were left with piles of unplowed snow around the cul de sac, preventing me from leaving the house. I placed a call to Lou and within 30 minutes he came with the plow truck. Not only was he sincerely concerned, he did a fantastic job cleaning a mess that was left by someone else.

We were lucky to have him. Lou, you will be greatly missed for all the help and hard work you’ve given this area.

A sincere thank you!

Dianne and Lonny Longe
