I feel that Mt. Pleasant works together and that the people work together to make the community strong. I want to do my part to keep that going.

I was speechless when I learned of the award.

I think he (Ober) asked me if I would accept it. But I'm not sure because I was so surprised.

We'll do a little work on that, talk to some people around the community.

I'm just really excited to be working with people who work together for the betterment of a community. It's something I believe in, and it's where my heart is.

I'm not sure we've had that kind of community forum.
