THE REVERE ADVOCATE - Friday, September 6, 2019 Page 9 PHILIP RUSSO | from page 7 the City. I have in the past years, helped the people that cannot help themselves in the grueling winter months, from shoveling after plowing for days, to using my plow to follow the ROTC high school students and move snow that they shovel to help the elderly. In 2016, I became a partner and manager of the Brenner Realty Group. We got together with different organizations to donate new shoes that were in the building along with party purses to help the girls looking to go to the Prom that could not afford it. SERINO | from page 5 work through them and to lead. The representative has taught me that elected officials should always follow their conscience, and that integrity matters. She has instilled in me that if you are elected, you must do the job right. Because of her, I know that if I have the honor of becoming Ward 6’s councillor, I will work as hard as I can to help as many people as I can. Because of her, I know how to be an effective and strong advocate for a constituency. In my five plus years as an aide to Revere’s State Representative, I am proud of the work we have done and are still doing in the office of Representative Vincent. I am proud that our office has a reputation for immediately responding to emails and phone calls from constituents – even on late nights and weekends. Because of this, I know that as Ward 6 Councillor, I will not only be available to my constituents whenever there is an issue, but I will get right on it to see that the issue gets resolved in a timely manner. The practical experience I have gained in my position as legislative aide built on the foundation and principles of my internship, and I believe as Ward Councillor, I will take what I have learned in Representative Vincent’s office, and continue to apply those principles to make life better for those of us who call Revere home. The way I live my personal life also reflects my deep commitment for our neighborhood and city. As a member of the St. Mary’s Holy Name Society, I work with a dedicated group of guys who sponsor parish events that foster community and fellowship, as well as oversee a scholarship program that helps students from the parish who are entering college. As a member of the West Revere Neighborhood Group, I am proud to have played a small role in helping to create the “Paws ‘n Play I donated from my company by utilizing the Russo’s Flooring truck, to deliver Thanksgiving turkey meals to the elderly and families that could not afford to put food on their tables during the holidays as well as throughout the year working together with the Food Bank to bring food to needy families. As a team player, I would look forward to work with the Mayor and all of the City Councilors to put forth a motion for more man hours for the Police Dept. which would add a police presence on the streets. We have a problem with the Opiate/Heroin crisis running through our City. Too many of Dog Park” on Sargent Street, as well as helping to rebuild DiSalvo Park at the Whelan School. I am also an ardent participant of the annual “Santa Walk,” which raises funds to beautify Revere. Each year, for many years now, I proudly partake in the annual spring cleanup in the city. Whether it has been painting over graffiti on the North Revere underpasses, picking up litter along the Sargent Street offramp or cleaning up along Asti Avenue and Lucia Avenue, I have always been ready to get into the weeds to make our neighborhood look better. Though our city faces some challenges that I hope to help resolve, we must not lose sight of all the good that we have here. We are a very unique community filled with special people. We are increasingly more diverse than when my Italian ancestors settled on Copeland and Hawes Streets in the early 1900s, and every wave of new residents since has added to our story. With our close proximity to Boston and America’s First Public Beach at our shores, we know our city has so much to offer the region. Collectively, as a community, we must work together – as residents and elected officials – to continue to raise Revere up and move it forward. In closing, I believe my record of service to the community and the people of Ward 6 means that I will be ready to roll up my sleeves and get to work as your councillor on day 1. And I can promise you that I’ll do my part to keep our city moving forward in a positive direction. For these reasons, I humbly ask for your vote on Tuesday, September 10th. My name will be the 2nd name on the Ward 6 Ballot. Thank you. Sincerely, Ricky Serino serino4ward6@gmail.com our friends and family have tragically passed due to this dreaded disease. We need to use the resources we have to help all families with education on how to budget their money to survive the day to day and week to week, to be able to pay the crazy rents and feed their families. I think that respect starts with our children.
