“Thank You For Your Service”

Posted 11 November 2014 Mickey AddisonLeave a commentPosted in Pure Inspiration

I’m humbled whenever one of my fellow citizens comes up to me and thanks me for my service. Having served alongside some of the finest men and women I’ll ever meet, I can only accept those kind “thank yous” on their behalf. It’s an honor to serve, and I have the great privilege to serve […]
