Note of appreciation from Herring family:
Good Afternoon Mr. McGinnis,
I just wanted to send a quick note to thank you and the wonderful men and women who participated in the mission for my father, Raymond Herring, on January 9th. I apologize for the delay as things were just a bit out of control for me. I am, or at least I think, moving past the many losses I incurred last year. My father was the last and hope it will remain that way for a long time to come.
Please pass my gratefulness onto the others who participated. Much love and respect to all those who served and those who continue to serve to keep us safe in our amazing country.
Many Thanks to you all!!!! You did a wonderful job!!!
Warmest regards
Toni
