Saturday, May 3, 2008

Berlin Fire Company offers our condolences to the Cardinale family due to the untimely death of Mayor Tom Cardinale. Mayor Cardinale and his wife are avid supporters of our fire company and he had expressed a desire to tour the firehouse and meet with our officers during our budget presentation last week. Thomas A. Cardinale, Mayor: Born in Little Italy in Baltimore City on May 11, 1938, Mayor Cardinale holds a degree in Teaching from the University of Maryland. Mayor Cardinale was a Howard County school teacher and also taught in Baltimore City and Baltimore County and was President of Canterbury Construction. Mayor Cardinale's love of Berlin and the inter-working of government as well as a desire to make positive changes for the Town influenced his decision to run for the office of Mayor in 2004. Mayor Cardinale's goals are to create a plan for managed growth in the Town, to protect the quality of life of its citizens and to control spending. In particular Mayor Cardinale is proud of his personal involvement with his church, his family and the Town and wants "to be a people Mayor". Mayor Cardinale had planned to run for re-election in October.
