    Default A Thank You from Afghanistan

    Kathy received the following email today. I wanted to share with everyone!!




    Subject: Thank You - Blanket



    Kathy,

    Linda Ferrara provided your email address to me so I could send a thank you for the great Marine Corps blanket you gave to her for the troops. I received the blanket about a week ago and it’s come in very handy as the temperatures here are starting to drop into the low 30’s, high 20’s, with only colder temperatures to come over the next few months. Please pass on my thank you to the RV Club for their efforts in making the blankets. This blanket will definitely go to good use and I will pass it on to the Marines that replace me next spring. Sorry I cannot send a picture right now, no way of transferring it to the computer I’m writing from.

    Thanks again for the blanket and all your efforts to support the troops.

    Ray & Kathy,

    Thanks for sharing that email with us. It sure makes us feel good to know that we have done something to support our young men and women in the armed services. Karen and I would like to send out a big THANK YOU to Kathy and all of the ladies who helped with the blankets.

    God bless you all!
