Martin, Heidi, and I are blessed to be so warmly welcomed amongst your ranks. You are the very best of America, and we know that your interactions with our kids will make them far better citizens for America's future. All of us at MHS are so inspired by your sacrifices, your perseverance, and your genuine concern for our nation.
Your attendance at our Veterans Day assembly yesterday made the front page of Longmont's Daily Times Call. I am attaching the link to the article so that those of you who wish to read it may do so.
