• • Minutes, Regular Meeting, La Porte City Council April 7, 1982, Page 2 The duly-sworn Councilpersons were seated at the Council table, where they received certificates of election and the congratulations of all present. Matuszak: I would like to thank those people who have sup- ported me in the past two elections. I must say, the thrill of victory is better than the agony of defeat. I would like to especially thank my wife, my daughter Tracey, who put up without me while I was campaigning. During this campaign I got to meet an awful lot of people, some of the finest people I could ever imagine meeting. ;~Jith their great support, I believe we have come to a like thinking, and I believe that this is one of the reasons that I was elected. Thank you very much, and it will be my pleasure to serve the people, citizens of this town, for the next three years. Graves: I would like to say, also, that I appreciate the citizens that came out this last Saturday and voted, It was a good return on the elections. It's been a great year, and I have met a lot of great people and had a lot of great help. My family, especially, has put up with me being gone many hours and has helped me many hours. I'm glad I-have the op- portunity to serve the citizens of La Porte, .and I will do so to the best of my ability. I will invite any comments or criticisms any time. I want to be your seven day a week servant. Thank you, and T am looking forward to this next year.. Pfeiffer: I do, too, thank everyone who helped me win the election. I also want to thank Tom for his six years of de- voted service. He was very unselfish in his time and his ef- forts. I think he did a good job for the City of La Porte. I hope I can do equally well or better. T would like to point out I didn't have anything to do with his office being cleaned out, and I hope I can serve y'all. 6.
