Tex Tech is a global company that chose to grow its business in Maine and we appreciate their dedication to the state. Maine's businesses will continue to succeed on a global level because of the talent and hard work of our workforce.

I am confident we can sell this mill. There are a number of business owners who see this facility as a real opportunity.

In this business, you have to have good products, good partners, be nimble as a company, financially sound and hungry to innovate, otherwise you're not going to grow your business,

We have built a company with a business mix and operating system that will allow us to deliver record results in any foreseeable economic climate, ... We have just completed a very successful management transition and I've never been more confident about the company's future.

What I bring to the table is experience and dedication of working with other board members, to try to give North Scott students, kindergarten through 12th grade, the best possible education.

Without the dedication and commitment of our 4,560 employees to make this a great company, this recognition would not have been possible.
