It is with absolute sheer joy and pleasure to write on behalf of my dear friend and guitar-jamming partner in crime, Cate Steel.

When I saw she was running to be our next state representative in the 37th District, I was so proud of her! And not only that, seeing all the activities she is involved in, the efforts she is making in our community, and most importantly the positivity that she is spreading in this time when we need positivity more than anything else, is wonderful!

Cate has been a dear friend. We have played in our music group with others in East Lyme, and even have had some guitar-jamming concerts.

She has raised an amazing family, is a wonderful mother, friend, teacher, environmental advocate, and kind soul that our community needs right now. It is without reservation that I support her to be our next state representative.

Your voice will be heard.
