First with Jamison’s fundraiser (I heard ticket sales have been very good so far) now with a letter of encouragement for Bonita;
I have known Bonita Schwan for more than 20 years. I met her through my wife and got to know her better through our work together volunteering for Make-A-Wish. It didn’t take me long to gain a sincere admiration for her and her spirit. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Bonita on many charitable events, and I know she’s been at the forefront of many more. Bonita is a smart, kind, ambitious, philanthropic person — the kind of person you want on your team. One of those rare individuals who not only stand up for their own beliefs but are even more motivated to stand up for the needs of others. She has been a true voice for people throughout her life, and, in Bonita’s case, “voice†isn’t limited to talking, it’s much more about doing. She is a unique blend of almost always having an uplifting smile on her face mixed with the confidence, skills and bravery needed to take on modern-day Goliaths.
I was happy to learn that Bonita Schwan is running for City Council representing the Southeast District in Sioux Falls, and I would ask that, if you live in our neck of the woods, you strongly consider giving her your support.

Hey, it doesn’t hurt to have the lead singer of Sioux Falls’ favorite R & R band endorsing you.
