Editor’s note: The following guest commentary was submit- ted for publication by Ken Norton, the Executive Director of NAMI NH, the New Hampshire chapter of the National Alliance on Men- tal Illness.

Although this week marks the one year anniversary of Ex- ecutive Councilor Ray Burton’s death, today started much like every other day of the past twenty five or so years. After my shower I gave a few quick pulls on my blue unbreakable “Vote For Raymond S. Burton” comb and I was on my way. Oh to be sure, 25 years ago I had a lot more hair, it wasn’t grey, and the comb may have been red or black but it was one of Ray’s. I don’t recall where I first met Ray, but I remember he handed me a comb, pulled a three-by-five card out of his shirt pocket and wrote down my name and town. The next time I saw him, he re- membered my name. Now I don’t care what folks say about Ray having a knack for names. Whatever talent he had for it, it also must have taken a fair amount of effort and concentration. And is there a better way to communicate to someone that they are important than remembering their name? Back then, I didn’t hold any position of importance and there was no real reason MARIO to remember my name except I lived in his district and that was good enough for Ray.

Not all other elected officials over the years were as reliable or courteous. When my bride first ran for Belknap County Attorney, we transformed our old Volvo 122 into a campaign vehicle and I went to DMV to get an Antique plate. When told my first choice Letters to the Editor “VOTE” was available, I said to the clerk “I can’t believe Ray n Burton doesn’t have it.” Ray couldn’t believe it either, when we showed up at the first Old Home day parade of campaign season he exclaimed, “Where did you ever get that plate?” I always felt a The importance of our right to local self-government little bad about it, given his love of antique cars and always being three votes behind.
