Dr. Don Emmons Withdraws As A Candidate For Oro Valley Town Council

The following email was sent out previously to those on our mailing list. We are posting the email to advise those readers not on our mailing list.
*************************************************************************************

Dear Friends & Neighbors,

After lengthy consideration and consultation with his wife, Dr. Don Emmons has determined it is in his and his family's best interest to withdraw his candidacy for Oro Valley Town Council.

Don confided in us some time ago that family issues may preclude him from continuing as a candidate. It was our position that Don should do what was best for him and his family.

This was not an impetuous decision on Don's part, but a decision that we understand and respect.

Don wanted us to thank the thousands of Oro Valley voters that thought enough of him to allow him to get through the primary vote, and allowed him to be one of the candidates seeking a council position.

We were proud to have supported Dr. Don, and would have preferred he remain in the race, but circumstances made that a difficult decision to make.

We wish Dr. Don Emmons the best. We appreciate that he stepped up and saw fit to be a candidate. His views were very much in line with ours, and with sadness, we accept his decision.

Hopefully, there will be no need for any further explanation, as we will respect Don and his family's privacy.

An official notification should be forthcoming shortly from the Oro Valley Town Clerk.
