A heartfelt thank-you note from Cheryl Vertrees
Thanks to my Lincoln Land colleagues for your expressions of kindness (cards, emails, food, flowers, memorials) following the recent passing of my dad. Your thoughtfulness has been heartwarming. A special thank you to my little work family who also provided comfort and support during December, when we were expecting any day to lose my 18-year-old niece following a four-year battle with cancer. To lose Dad just three weeks after Cora passed away has been especially tough, and my work family has been there for me. The many kind acts are greatly appreciated. — Cheryl Vertrees
