LETTER: Don Kaltschmidt for state Senate

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Don “K” Kaltschmidt and doing business with him for over 30 years. I remember in the late 1980s, when Don bought a small car dealership in Whitefish. Now, in 2015, it is one of the premiere dealerships in Montana and led the entire state in car sales.

I’ve always known Don to be honest, conservative, to get along very well with others and to be very community-oriented and a great family man.

It should also say something that I have only written one other letter like this in my career, and that was for the late Bob DePratu, who was also a great leader and friend.

I think Don would be an excellent state senator and representative for the Flathead Valley and the state of Montana.

—Benny Bee Sr., Whitefish
