Proud of the choice
To the Editor:
When I saw the photo on your front page of Joseph Hickey being sworn in as Everett’s Fire Chief along with Police Chief Paul Strong, at his side, I had a feeling of pride.
Joe Hickey and Paul Strong were students at the Webster School when I served as principal. In those days they called me Mister. Now, I refer to Joe and Paul as Chief.
As young boys, I observed leadership qualities in both of them. They were very respectful as taught by their parents.
Everett should be very proud of Chief Hickey and Chief Strong.
Respectfully submitted:
Edward F. Murray
Webster School
Principal, Retired
