Thank you from Brian

"Thank you so much for the care package. I cannot say how much we appreciate it and how much it means to us to know there are people who support us back home. It is a huge morale booster to us.

We put the cookies and snacks on a table in our office. It is amazing how fast word spreads that someone has cookies. We get all kinds on visitors. We share with our smaller adjacent units too. They are also very appreciative.

We are almost halfway though our deployment. It's great seeing that light at the end of the tunnel.

We just have a hot summer and hopefully not so hot fall - then we should be back in time for the holidays.

I can't wait to get back to northeast Ohio. I love the seasons.... and we don't get a whole lot of change over here.

Thanks again. We truly appreciate you and your organization."

A Family's Thanks

Our grandson, Christopher, is home from the UAE, safe and sound. He still talks about all the baked goods he received and how he was able to share them with others. It sure made a lot of them happy.

Thank you so very much - and all that take part in the program. It’s people like you that make the deployment tolerable.

Sincerely

Larry W.

Some Requests

from one of our bakers........

"Hi!

I spoke with Brent, who is my close friend and to whom we sent packages. He asked me first off to thank everyone who is baking and sending boxes to send to the troops. When I asked, he gave me the following list of things that really came in handy for the troops:

travel-sized toothpaste, deodorant, toothbrushes, etc

individually packed handiwipes and eye wash

jerky

packets or cans of tuna or chicken

gum, candy, etc

individually packed nuts, etc

cookies, of course

granola and granola bars

chapstick

i thought maybe sunscreen, though he didn't mention that

I hope that helps!

Thank you for all that you do,

Naomi"
