Reason to be proud

In this very challenging and stressful time for everyone, it has been a blessing to see so many people reaching out to help in ways that sometimes you wouldn't think of.

I want to recognize two very special mail ladies, Heather and Jeanne, who have remember me as one of their customers on their route by bringing me much needed and hard-to-get supplies - unsolicited. They also keep an eye for anything unusual around my property.

I want them to know how much I appreciate their thoughtfulness and to mention and honor all the other dedicated postal and essential workers when life is so complicated for everyone.

Like the song says, "People who need people are the luckiest people in the world" when there is so much need.

Thank you to Heather and Jeanne and everyone else for helping in big and small ways and making me proud to be an American.
