About Walt

I officially took charge of the Dearborn Heights City Clerk’s office on April 1st. There will be a primary on Tuesday, August 2nd with the general election being held on November 8th. I urge everyone to remember to vote in the primary for Walt Prusiewicz, to keep me as your City Clerk. I am the only candidate running that has on-the-job experience. I took an early retirement from Wayne County after 30 years of service. I hold a Master’s of Business Administration in Finance from Wayne State University and a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting; also from Wayne State University. I am a lifelong resident of southeastern Michigan. I have been married for 21 years to Karen and we have made our home in the great city of Dearborn Heights for our entired married life. We have one son, Gregory who attended St. Sabina Elementary School and graduated from Divine Child High School and is now attending Otterbein University. I am an active member of the Divine Child parish in Dearborn, belong to AFSCME Council 25, Sub Chapter 38 and am a proud member of the Sons of the American Legion Stitt Post.

I am filled with gratitude for family and friends . . . old and new.

“Gratitude can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. It makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.”  Melody Beattie
A huge THANK YOU to all of the people who attended or contributed so generously to my fundraiser this week.  We had a large turnout and I was touched  by the many people who came from different phases of my life, old and new, to support me in this endeavor.   If there was ever any doubt that I was making the right decision when I decided to throw my hat into the political ring, it was erased on Wednesday night when I realized all the people who believe in me.  I had childhood friends like Gerry Sitko and Dan Bernard who I have known since the first grade.  There were family members and many of my neighbors of 21 years of living in Dearborn Heights and attending St. Sabina and Divine Child.  AFSCME Council 25, my union of most of my adult life, was well represented by Rick Johnson as was my current Wayne County retirees’ union by Bettye Misuraca.   Friends from the American Legion were there as well as the many new friends I have made in the city of Dearborn Heights.  I appreciate the many elected officials from both the city and Wayne County who took the time to attend or were generous enough to give donations.  With a little over a month to go until election day, I am confident we will have a victory come August 2nd and I have these people and many more to thank.
