Mike Richard announces bid for spot on Erath City Council

Hi, I am Michael (Mike) Richard and I am running for the Erath City Council in the upcoming November election. I was born and raised in Erath. Graduated from Erath High School. I have two years of college in Business Administration. I am member of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church. I was a Volunteer Fireman for the Erath Fire Dept. for 20 years, a member of the Erath Backers Club for 15 years. I coached Erath Little League for 9 years.
I worked for Coastal Chemical Company as an inventory controller and also Facility Manager and Purchasing manager for Wilkinson Technologies.
I am 69 years old, married to Elizabeth (Liz) Richard for 49 years, we have two great kids Heath Richard and his wife Chastiy, our daughter Michelle Richard Landry and her husband Brad. We have four beautiful granddaughters, Kaitlin Richard Voisin, Hanna Richard, Madison Landry and Mollie Landry.
I am retired and can devote more time to the Town of Erath. I would like to be a part of helping Erath and all of our Citizens. I love my little community of Erath. I have never been a politician but I've always been interested in politics. I know I could play a positive role in helping the town Council and serve my community. I will find new ideas to better our Town.
I would deeply appreciate your support and vote this coming November 2018 election.
