"RIP" Mr. Stoessel..." 'James "Kimo" Rosen

I did not personally know Mr. Stoessell however I would like to acknowledge his many Letters to the editor which frequented the editorial pages of the Kaua'i Garden Island news.

Aloha, check out my opinion article in the 09-28-12 edition of the Kaua'i Garden Island news,"RIP Mr. Stoessel."

"RIP"  Mr. Stoessel..."

I read  with sadness and dismay in the obituaries that Horace Stoessel had passed away.

I did not personally know Mr. Stoessell however I would like to acknowledge his many Letters to the editor which frequented the editorial pages of the Kaua'i Garden Island news.  Most  of
his letters were factual accounts of county government.

Horace  made me have a better understanding of many political actions that took place in our local island government.

Whether you agreed or dis-agreed  he cared about his community and voiced his opinions many times on how he felt we could better our Cosmic Island.  I remember one letter in particular  about how the salary commission raised  nearly every local politicians salary  during the brink  and peak of the current economic crisis. The salary increase would  immediately take effect unless of course our county council  nullified it in whole or part, which never happened since nobody  wanted to vote down a salary increase for themselves.

Mr Stoessel, I will miss your frequent opinion articles  which opened  my eyes to  many local issues.

From one frequent Letter writer to another, mahalo Nui Loa Mr. Stoessel and may you rest in peace.
