Thanks to the First Responders for their good work on an Easter Sunday. And Thank you Sgt. Wiggins for your Recognition of our Great Grandson Nicholas DeLeon for acting upon his discovery of Mr. Reynolds, the missing man. Getting old is not easy and we all rely on young people like Nicholas and the First Responders for their kindness, thoughtfulness and willingness to go the extra mile. Thank you

Glad this had a happy outcome. Hopefully also a wake up call for the old gentleman to turn in his driver’s license and car keys.
