My thank you goes out to all of the men, women and families who have done a WONDERFUL job of sacrificing for our country to make sure we stay safe. My father was a Korean Vet and we had family at the Pentagon on 911. We can never thank you enough!
And a special thank you to those who are protecting Indianapolis during the Indy 500. The boys and I have noticed that you are here!
