New York State Republican Party Chairman, Edward F. Cox will be headlining the Queens Village Republican Club’s 2014 Holiday Party on December 4th. The following historical account of our Chairman’s background was written for Epoch Times by nationally acclaimed writer, Robert Golomb.
Try taking a guess where Ed Cox, the Republican Party Committee chairman for New York state, got his first job after graduating from Princeton University in 1968. If you guessed that this scion of centuries-old American families with names sounding like they came from the encyclopedia of the American aristocracy—the Finches, Coxes, Livingstons, and Delafields—began his professional career as a financier in a large pedigreed titled Wall Street financial firm, you would have offered a reasonable guess. But you’d be wrong.
We hope everyone enjoys a Happy Thanksgiving. The Christmas season is now upon us and we wish each of you the merriest of holiday tidings, joyous family gatherings and religious celebrations.
As the year end quickly approaches, each of us takes stock of what we as individuals did to improve our own lives, our towns, our borough and our city. We look back on how we participated in a wide variety of community organizations and how we co-exist with many different viewpoints, some to the extreme right, others to the extreme left, with the majority of us in between. For those who don’t agree with us, we don’t focus on proclaiming banishment from New York State. Rather we try to express our views with greater clarity, direct evidence and with tolerance for those less informed. That’s who we are as New Yorkers.
The Queens Village Republican Club is supporting the NYPD 104th Precinct annual Toy Drive. On behalf of P.O. Lenny O’Toole and Captain Manson of the 104 Pct., we are collecting new toys for orphans and children of domestic violence in the Ridgewood/Glendale area. Our new QVGOP board member, Janet Maderik is voluntarily coordinating the effort.
