And thanks for your contributions and your service. That is very honorable.

It comes from my military background. My Dad was a lifer. I served in the AF. Being involved at the local level is the least that we can do. We are part of this community and need to make it better with our service. We both work for the public sector, but our lives extend beyond our jobs. It’s important.

I just wish that more folks would do it, embrace the concept of the social compact- that we are all part of the greater polity and all need to work toward a better future.

Too many people are insulated from their communities. They live in their houses, don’t know their neighbors. Sad, really
