  3. Sir,
    Your family is beautiful. Please be careful and remember our prayers are with you and your family. Come to VMI and see us all in the Marshall New Market Battalion when you get home. Take care!

  4. Hey, Rich! Hope all is doing well with you. We are helping out on the home front. Sarah helped take the trash out for Devon just this week! I'm psyched to help babysit the little man next week. You take care of you. The Wilsons

  5. Richard, I remember you and Amanda entering Burlington Elementary. You were either in the second or third grade.I am so proud of your accomplishments and thoroughly enjoy your articles. You were a smart and talented young boy and I am not surprised with your success. Keep up the good work and God bless both you and your family.

  6. Lindsey, Melissa, Kathy and Melanie,

    Thank you!

    Mrs. Michael,

    It is you and the many dedicated teachers like you that I owe a great debt. Thank you for the work that you do. You might forget at times how much influence the lives of so many. I have not forgotten. My greatest role models were teachers.
