Thank you for Slumber Pawty Success!

To the editor: All of us at Hamilton County Animal AdvoCATes wish to express our deepest gratitude to this wonderful community that made our first annual Slumber Pawty fundraiser at The Cat Hut such a resounding success!

He recommends Alex Pruismann for Hamilton Co. sheriff

To the editor: I have known Alex for almost a decade and want to recommend him for the position of sheriff of Hamilton County. What I see in Alex is probably what everyone sees. But for those of you who don’t know him, he is a stand up guy! The personality traits that I see in Alex and what would make him a great sheriff are: leadership, integrity, honesty, fairness, conscientiousness and a sense of humor. He has an even temperament that is essential and believes in a collaborative atmosphere. He will listen to others and take all things into consideration if warranted, but can ...

Alex Pruismann can step into the big role of sheriff

To the editor: It is vital that we vote for values in the next Sheriff of Hamilton County election to precede a sheriff who has large shoes to fill. I believe that Alex Pruismann, being a local Hamilton County resident for his whole life, would bring those needed values. I speak from a viewpoint as an educator. Deputy Pruismann has spent many a year coming into the schools and showing our younger generation that law enforcement is important and nothing to be afraid of. He spent several years going to each classroom on his own time to do Books and Badges. The children really engaged ...

Pruismann embodies honesty, integrity and excellence

To the editor: I was thrilled when I heard Alex was running for sheriff. I have known Alex for several years, and having worked with him in several capacities, I can confidently say he is the best person for the job.

He is constantly learning, striving for growth and committed to the highest good for the people he serves. There is no one I would trust more in this position. Tyler Burton Williams

Pruismann will make an ideal Hamilton County sheriff

To the editor: Alex Pruismann has been a friend for over 15 years, ever since we worked at Shoppers Supply in Webster City together. He was then and is now always willing to listen and talk, even tough conversations. He is hardworking, also has compassion and empathy but knows he has a job to do for the citizens of Hamilton County. He will make an ideal sheriff to represent our county.

Retired Iowa Falls police chief supports Alex Pruismann

To the editor: Alex Pruismann started his law enforcement career with the Iowa Falls Police Department. Alex quickly developed into a dedicated and caring officer with exceptional law enforcement skills. Alex left Iowa Falls PD to return to the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office to work in the community he grew up in. This move was undoubtedly our loss and Hamilton County's gain. If elected to sheriff, Hamilton County would be getting an extremely skilled law enforcement leader with a passion for his job and his community. If I was a resident of Hamilton County I would definitely vote ...
