1.) the mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual:

"running away was not in keeping with her character"

It might come as a surprise for some to read this on a campaign article but there are a lot of people in the world smarter than me. (Opponents may fill in snarky comments here)____________.This was made painfully apparent to me in the 2^nd grade on our student achievement board. Each grand achievement was rewarded with a gold star placed next to the student’s name. Some of my classmates had stars reaching all the way across the poster board.  I had three.

A rather inconspicuous start in life for someone running for mayor you’re thinking; well maybe. The experience inspired me to work a little harder and develop a work ethic that has rewarded me many times over in my life. Starting my telecommunications career as a lineman I followed up with many leadership positions to retire as a Staff Manager of Process Improvement. I’ve come to realize a college degree, letters after your last name, or a prominent family name will not insure one to be a good leader. The School of Hard-Knocks, real time leadership experience, and living on a family dairy farm won’t insure a good leader either but they will develop strong character…the foundation of good leadership. Integrity, honor, fortitude, resolve……my name is Tim Stocks and I want to be your next mayor.

I ask for your support in helping us rise to this great challenge. I hope you will send your personal check to:
