Dear Editor,
To all those who donated and helped the Mike Herron Family Benefit be such a tremendous success, a huge thank you.
The whole community, family, friends, neighbors, and even total strangers gave generously of their hard earned money, bless you all.
A special thank you to all those local businesses that are struggling themselves, yet they gave donated so unselfishly. We don’t know what the future holds, but I’m sure with all the love and support it will be brighter. Many who gave do not even know Mike and may be wondering if he deserved it. So I would like you to know he’s one of the good guys.
In the 25 years I’ve known Mike, I have never known him to splurge on himself even once. His priority has always been his family. His wife Kathy, my daughter, and his sons? welfare, safety and education have always taken precedence over any of his own wants.
What more could a father-in-law ask?
Mike went to work every day without complaint so he could make things better for his family. He has always driven the oldest car in the household. He has always promoted higher education as a goal for his sons. He sees to it that the whole family attends church regularly and the boys got good religious training.
Mike gave his sons a love of sports by playing them with them. He is definitely the best decision Kathy ever made. His favorite movie is ‘A Wonderful Life.?
Like I said, he’s one of the good guys and I love him for it.
