Greetings:
I would first like to thank each and every member of Post 216 for your
service to our great country.

On 2-22-10, my brother-in-law Brian Lynn Forsyth was laid to rest at the
National Cemetery in Holly. My wife Connie and I would like to let you
know that we appreciate the fact that your men were there to honor him,
and to make our last memory of him with us a truly memorable one. With the
snow and wind it was surly not a good day to be outside, but like true
service men, your members preformed there duties without hesitation. I got
to tell you I am getting choked up just writing this. But anyway again, I
am so very proud to be an American, and so greatful to you all, not just
the men who were at the National Cemetery Monday, but each of you and all
of our Veterans. You are the greatest.

Sincerely, Ken and Connie Wells
