Biesiada rates praise for service to schools

I would like to include myself among the many to take a moment to say thank you publicly to Thomas Biesiada for his service over the years on the Sayreville Board of Education. He is one of the best people I have ever known.

As I stated in my endorsement letter a few weeks ago, Tom wanted to get reelected and continue to improve the education of the students and follow through with making sure all the buildings and grounds at the schools were maintained, while trying to save taxpayers money. That being said, and knowing Tom, even though he did not win, he will still follow and support the efforts set forth by the board while he attends meetings regularly. I hope Tom’s legacy will continue with all the board members working as a team. So congratulations, Dan Balka, Lucy Bloom and John Walsh. Remember Tom’s mottos, “Do what is right” and “It is not about ‘me,’ so turn the ‘m’ upside down, and it becomes ‘we.’ ”

Again, many thanks to Tom for a job well done. You will be missed. Hold your head up high knowing that you gave 100 percent of your time for the betterment of the Sayreville public school system.
