Show Thanks To Everyone Involved! Joe and I want to express our appreciation and give a big thanks to all of those who were involved in presenting the special spe-cial program honoring our servicemen ser-vicemen from Panguitch and the surrounding area as they prepare to leave us to report for active duty in our armed forces. We were especially impressed by the way the students stu-dents and young folks were so involved. It is hard to see husbands, hus-bands, sons, brothers and close friends leave us to go to war. It creates a great deal of anxiety, but it also gives us a sense of pride to know that these young men are willing to do their best to protect all of us from those countries and individuals who would take away those freedoms granted us by our Constitution freedoms which young men such as these have fought to protect pro-tect ever since dthe founding of our great nation. Joe was truly overwhelmed by such an outstanding out-standing show of support since he was involved during the Vietnam era and saw how those servicemen were treated during the war and after they returned home. . I am glad that Debbie Pollock did not mention in her letter to us that Joe would be asked to stand and say a few words. If he had known that he would have speak to the audience, I am afraid that both he and I would have missed a wonderful program. pro-gram. The size of the audience would have been intimidating , enough, but it showed that we live in a community where folks really care about each other. So thanks again to everyone who had a part in organizing this program pro-gram and a special thanks to those who performed and provided pro-vided the gifts. Margaret and Joe Decker Panguitch |
