Stimeling is right type of person to be sheriff

To the editor:

As a resident of another county, I was hesitant to write this. However, I feel that I must attest to the character of Joshua Stimeling.

I have been a law enforcement officer for 14 years and have various years of experience in different fields of the law enforcement profession. I will say that I am proud to call Josh a coworker and a friend. This is a man I have come to know well and for whom I have enormous respect.

When Josh told me that he was running for Juniata County Sheriff, I was excited and yet, at the same time, saddened. I knew Josh would be the perfect candidate for sheriff of Juniata County, yet I really didn’t want to see him leave.

When you work with someone long enough in this field, you form a bond and a trust with him or her. I have to say that I would trust my life with Joshua Stimeling. In fact, I already have on many occasions.

Josh is a good Christian and a dedicated and honest family man. These are the qualities you want to see in a sheriff. Josh’s professional experience under two different counties’ sheriffs has given him the right ideas to make the Juniata County Sheriff’s Office a law enforcement agency that the residents of Juniata County would be proud of.

I firmly believe that if the residents of Juniata County elect Josh Stimeling as their next sheriff, they will see a more proactive and community-oriented sheriff’s office. I can’t think of a better candidate for the honored office of sheriff. Please vote lifelong Juniata County resident Joshua Stimeling for sheriff.
