PERIOD FOR GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT
Stacie Laughton Honorable Board | am Selectman Stacie Marie Laughton, Ward 4, 80 Elm Street, Unit 1. |
come before you tonight, that was a very interesting meeting. Not bad for this type of statement | have to
make. My statement is kind of mixed. A little over a week ago, my wife, who is a former Selectman in the
City, she passed away. And she was kind of looking forward to seeing some of the stuff | might do going
forward and | have been in contact with the Chief of Police, Fire Department, some member of the Board,
the Mayor. She loved this City, she loved this Board and she loved the fact that the one time she was,
excuse me, | have a little cough, she loved the fact that one time when she was a Selectman we called her
the “Ballot Box Girl’. Interestingly enough in the last primary when | started my work again as a Selectmen,
| was placed at the ballot box because | have an achilles / tendon issue. And you know, it’s really sad that |
come and | have to tell you that.
Also | just want to thank the City and Bob Mack and other people at my church. | have a copy of cremation
ledger. There were not people of very much money, the City of Nashua was there for us in this time. And |
just want to thank the Welfare Department and the City for making such services available to people like
myself. With that, | always try to remain as non-partisan but | do want to say that she would be happy that |
am serving as a Selectman with the City. She’d also be happy that | am also going to run again for State
Representative. And | am going to run for her and | am going to keep my head clear. | have been very
fortunate to be offered a second chance to be a Selectman. You know, people recall my past, and | will just
say in the past | did call in a bomb threat unfortunately to the local hospital. In my past | committed felonies
and | am sorry. | have never got a chance to say I’m sorry for 2012 and I’ve never got a chance to say | am
sorry for the bomb threat. | am sorry. But! thank you for the opportunity to be able to serve within this
government again. And hopefully we can take it to the next level. And | have to shout out to all the City
services who helped my wife and | during this time, the Fire Department, all the personnel from Engine 4
and the Ladder Company and the various Police Officers who have helped with different things.
