Earlier this week Commissioner William McCurdy II and his office dropped off reusable water bottles for our Leaders to have as the weather warms up. Our Leaders will be encouraged to do the right thing each day. We are so thankful for our community that supports our vision.

I don’t know who needs to hear this today but buy the shoes, eat the burger, stay up too late, sleep in too late, take the vacation, take all the pictures, tell your people you love them. Life is often tragically too short.
