Garner in HD7

It has been my privilege to have served with Frank Garner on the Kalispell Police Department for 21 years until his retirement. He is not only an excellent leader but has great people skills and good common sense.

Frank has proven his leadership experience as the Kalispell police chief, interim city manager, past president of Big Brothers and Sisters, the Lions Club and Kalispell Rotary, just to mention a few. After retiring from the Kalispell Police Department, Frank served in Afghanistan as a police adviser. He has raised his children with a love of country, and both of his boys did tours of duty, one serving in the U.S. Army and the other in the U.S. Marine Corps.    

Frank is a family man, being married for 33 years with three grown children. He is a Christian and is pro-life. He also is a strong advocate of our Second Amendment rights. He is a sportsman, loving hunting and the outdoors, and has raised his children to be the same.

Frank has always put the Kalispell community first, as one can see by his community service, and he would like to continue to do so by representing the people of House District 7. Frank decided to run for HD7, as he was tired of seeing politicians put their needs first. He will not take contributions from people who don’t live, work or do business in Flathead County, as he wants to be accountable only to the people he represents, not out-of-state interests. He wants to represent the people in HD7.

I’m glad to call Frank Garner a friend and hope you will support him with your vote June 3. I believe he will make an excellent representative for HD7 in Kalispell.
