Alma Coston wrote a letter of support published in the West Linn Tidings on May 14, 2015:
We need a caring listener, good learner, hard worker and collaborative leader like Thomas Frank for mayor who will help a senior citizen who needs help with repairs on Neighbor Helping Neighbor days, or even bring his family to the Centennial Quilting Bee and learn how to and quilt a square from one of West Linn’s original kindergarten teachers.
We would be in experienced hands, and a work-together direction with him as mayor.
