As fire chief, I’ve had the opportunity to work with Council and particularly Mary Gutman. She is a stand out in Council.
She spends time researching what is coming up in council and is very prepared prior to the meetings. She truly has the interest of Tallmadge and particularly her ward in mind with all decisions she makes.
She is not afraid to speak up and ask the hard questions.
I would wholeheartedly endorse her to continue in Council.
Retired Tallmadge Fire Chief Mike Passarelli
“ I first met Mary as a candidate for the vacated seat as 4th ward councilperson 2 years ago. I was impressed with her community involvement and well-documented employment history as an exceptionally qualified nurse.
Two years later and she has not disappointed any of us! A quick learner, Mary comes to council meetings well-prepared and ready to speak on ALL the important city issues before her.
We are fortunate to have a young woman willing to include in her very busy life as a wife, mother, and a full-time nurse, an added desire to serve her community. Please reelect Mary Gutman on November 7th to make sure you have a well-informed, caring, and conscientious representative for your ward!”
- Karen Morgan, Tallmadge Democratic Club President
"Mary brings compassion and dedication to representing the people of Tallmadge Ward 4. She is passionate and determined to work hard for them. I'm proud to work alongside her, and I support her re-election."

"Mary is that rare politician who always puts the interests of her constituents and the city that she serves above her own. She is both passionate and compassionate, and we need to keep Mary on the Tallmadge City Council now more than ever."
Barbara Marie Minney, Tallmadge Resident
"I have known Mary since our daughters were in elementary school and Simone joined her Girl Scout Troop. I was proud to join her as a co-leader of the troop for the last few years. She has taught me so much about leading scouts and all the work and dedication involved.
Mary is a DEFINITE leader and woman of action. When she says she is going to do something, she does it. She also listens to everybody with respect and compassion and considers so many different sides to issues. I am so proud to have her representing Tallmadge."
Dana Herro, Tallmadge Resident
"We have lived next door to Mary for over 15 years. Everything she does is done with integrity and passion. This includes her family, pets, yard, work, exchange students, and certainly her community. She is the perfect candidate for the job."
Catherine Pawlowski, Tallmadge Resident
"I have known Mary for over 20 years. She is the girl you want to represent Ward 4. She is fair, kind, and willing to listen! She has my full support!"
Greta Powell, Tallmadge Resident
