Thanks to those who serve us

By Staff
Thursday night as we all looked at the snow falling from the sky, many things ran through our minds.
Will I work tomorrow? Will I have to go to school?
Some no doubt even thought they needed to do a little last minute shopping before heading home from work.
Thankfully, there are those in our community who work to serve and protect us in times like those.
Our local police officers and deputies, our firefighters and rescue workers, and many others put themselves in jeopardy to make sure everyone was safe.
While we were placing calls for someone to come and help us home, they were answering those calls to their fullest.
Thanks for that.
