Commentary Update for May 6, 2001: Lowe Retirement

Dear Friends of Commentary:

A well-placed source told me this morning that Charlene Lowe, Park View Health Administrator and recent Winnebago County Executive challenger, has submitted a letter of resignation to Jane Van De Hey, effective September 7, 2001. I have written a short story about the event for the Commentary web site:

Commentary does not have the reporting staff to go out and try to find if Van De Hey pressured Lowe into resigning, but I hope the Northwestern and the Post-Crescent take up that task. It would also be interesting to see what the Supervisors who supported Lowe in the election have to say about this.
