 Judge Ellie Moreno Brown Kaz and I have known Ellie Brown for many years. Through St. Helen Church, the Oracle Community Center, Sun Life Clinic, the Oracle Fire Department, Deb Breen's Zumba class - the list goes on and on. This knowing helps explain why we along with so many others supported her run for Copper Corridor Justice of the Peace. We believe she will do a great job in a position that is of critical importance to our town.
Oracle is a community of quiet successes. Most never attract much public attention. And so it goes. Until a crisis breaks out or a key political decision focuses the spotlight on one or another problem or local institution. The position of justice of the peace is pivotal because so many of the trials and tribulations, the family disputes, the acts of desperation and addiction - not to mention outright criminality - find their way to our local courthouse. In Oracle and places like it a mix of broad community experience along with deep family roots and relationships is foundational to sound judicial decision making - which is exactly what we can expect from Ellie in the coming years. Congratulations, Judge!

Thank you. This touched my heart. I’ve made full circle over the past three decades bringing me back “home”. The support from the Copper Corridor was something else and I thank everyone who voted for me. Whether one did or didn’t, I will be dedicated to my duties and to the people of the Copper Corridor. Frank and Kaz, I love you always. Your comment will be posted after it is approved.

AuthorKaz and I moved to Oracle in 1979. The house we bought dated to the late 1940s. With little advance knowledge of the place, we set out to build a new life together, intending to settle in and raise a family.
