Happy Thanksgiving... we have a lot to be thankful for in this great nation and this great Commonwealth. Sure, there is a LOT of work to be done. No, our fight hasn't changed and if anything even more challenges lay before us. However...
I am thankful for having been born in the greatest nation in the history of this world...
I am thankful for the dedicated men and women who sacrificed themselves in order to found this great nation...
I am thankful for the men and women who authored the greatest document created by mankind that protects us still to this day...
I am thankful for my family... children are a living legacy...
I am thankful for those I served with in both military and law enforcement service...
I am thankful for the mentorship of the late Kim Stolfer...
I am thankful for the loyalty, integrity, and hard work of the current officers and board of directors who work with me each and every single day...
I am thankful for the volunteers and patriots who spend their hours or sometimes even days working for the cause and sacrificing for us all...
I am thankful for the men and women who preceeded us in these roles, and who laid the foundations for what we have grown into...
I am thankful for the attorneys, advisors, and legislators we have worked with along the way who have fought side by side to preserve our freedoms...
I am thankful for being given the opportunity to be a warrior in this fight, a purpose with too much at stake to be on the sidelines watching...
and I am thankful for you, the membership, for without your support, inspiration, and purpose none of this would be possible.
