Monday was filled with pride, love, and so many emotions as we gathered for the farewell ceremony for Mike and his unit. Watching him serve as Commander of the Troops and lead the soldiers onto the field was a moment we will always remember. Yesterday came the hardest part—saying goodbye as he left for a year. 🇺🇸❤️
Through all of it, our community has shown up for us in ways we will never forget.
To everyone who donated through Venmo for the food for the ceremony, helped prepare and serve food, volunteered their time, or sent encouraging words and prayers—THANK YOU. Your generosity helped us feed our soldiers and their families and give them a send-off filled with love and support.
Then there was the third-grade classes who made handmade cards that went with Mike to share with the soldiers. Such a thoughtful reminder that people back home are thinking of them.
Our business community is also our family, and we are so grateful for every one of you. Please keep Mike, his fellow soldiers, and all the families missing someone they love in your prayers.
We’re already counting the days until he’s home. 🇺🇸❤️
