I just got the following email message from The Marshal (it’s for all of the staff in our district). He’s a good man who trusts God in all things. (I don’t think he’ll mind that I’ve published his message.)

Just a note to wish you all a safe, pleasant and relaxing thanksgiving.  It is always a good time to reflect on what really matters the most in our lives (hint: it is not this job).  Family and loved ones are number one so spend as much time with them as you can.  We really do have a great deal to be thankful for and I urge you to give thanks everyday, not just one day a year.  Also, don’t forget our men and women in the armed services who are on duty around the world and around the clock trying to make this planet a better place.  They deserve a great deal of thanks for the sacrifice they are making for the freedom we enjoy.

While on the subject of giving thanks, I appreciate all you do to make our district shine.  Thank you!
