ETTER TO THE EDITOR

Submitted by Retired Lewis County Treasurer Vicki Roy:

As a retired County Treasurer and Lewis County Taxpayer, the election of the

next Lewis County Treasurer, is very important to me.

Eric Virkler is the most qualified applicant running in the 2019 Election. Eric was

born and raised in Lewis County, a graduate of LACS and Syracuse University

with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting. Eric is a licensed Certified Public

Accounting, has worked as an auditor with Coopers & Lybrand, served as Chief

Financial Officer at LCGH for six years; licensed in life, health and investment

insurance sales with Stephen Foy Insurance Agency; served as Clerk/Treasurer

and Administrator for Village of Lowville, served as Director of Economic

Development and Planning for Lewis County for 6 years, and currently serving as

Director of Lewis County Economic Development and Executive Director of the

Lewis County Industrial Development Agency.

In these positions, he has been responsible for budgeting, state, federal, and

local reporting, management of departments and staff, developed good

communications skills with staff and boards, very familiar with the needs of Lewis

County residents and their concerns.

Eric is also a committee member of the Lowville Cream Cheese Festival;

Chairperson for Mountain View Prevention Services, LACS Varsity Men’s

swimming team; Lowville Summer Recreation committee member and past

member of Lewis County Empire Zone Board and Lewis County Chamber of

Commerce.

I personally worked with Eric when I was County Treasurer and found him easy

to work with and extremely knowledgeable. Please vote Eric Virkler for Lewis

County Treasurer on June 25th, Primary Day.
