I am grateful that Michael has persisted in his long-term goal to be a firefighter. Michelle and I are thrilled with his recently-landed, full-time position in Big Spring, Texas. As a tribute to Michael, I want to quote the kind words shared by a dear friend who texted us the following about Michael:

“I am so thrilled to see Mike living his dream! What a handsome devil he is;). It makes me feel good to know that he is striving to be a hero, we need more of them. What a good man he has turned out to be- sure u are proud & I am proud for you!”
